run him with Cinder Giant or other similar cards and he's getting more powerful every turn.

Love him all around. I built my mono green around him. I love to ramp him with auras and enchantments, but the best thing to use with him is a Feral Contest, usually with an Ascetisism in play. Then I pick what will block him, and get a free +1/+1 token. Oh, and I recently placed a Hex Parasite in with him, and this thing is great. Not only does it eat the token from Hydra to make itself a fatty in it's own right, but the next turn, Hydra will double them up again. I love it.

Since comboing with jank rares is always fun, run this dude with Predatory Urge. Tap to eat a dude and make your Hydra bigger? Won me quite a few casual games.

I find this card to be rather insane in a defender deck with Overgrown Battlement.

I regularly manage to bring him out as a 12/12+ creature. Unfortunately, my friends don't take kindly to this. Especially with Roughshod Mentor out. :D

I'm working with Hydras for a casual deck to celebrate my "Johnnyness", and I just wanted to point out that if you give this guy Dragon Fangs it's got trample, and prevents all damage dealt to it

I love Hydras :D

Oooo baby, I played this card in FNM with my Primeval Titan. After playing my titan against a Poison Ten turns til death match on my part, I got all 22 of my mana out making him a 21/21 and ended up batting the poison guy against my titan and Hydra up in his face, thus clenching me the match...Then my next match one motha humpa pulled a doom blade on my hydra and I lost after that since the jerk kept pulling doom blades on my creatures lol, Doom blade, makes everything a big headache...lol
