My Hydra commander deck that I've been working on, lots and lots of wombo combos!

COMMANDER

Rosheen Meanderer - For faster and larger hydras, mana ramping ( Animist's Awakening , etc.), and huge burn spells like Clan Defiance , Banefire, Savage Twister, Starstorm and tutoring (Green Sun's Zenith, Chord of Calling and Citanul Flute)

CREATURES

For obvious reason the majority of creatures are Hydras, my favourites being Apocalypse Hydra , Genesis Hydra, Hooded Hydra, Hydra Broodmaster, Kalonian Hydra (to grow other Hydras as well as Gyre Sage), Polukranos, World Eater, Primordial Hydra and Savageborn Hydra .

Lifeblood Hydra - Card draw and life gain, works well with Reliquary Tower

Vigor for ridiculousness and Xenagos, God of Revels as we have massive hydras, why not make them bigger?

Steel Hellkite for destruction, Flameblast Dragon for flying and damage

Acidic Slime - StapleEternal Witness - Staple

Gyre Sage - Almost always evolving due to large creatures for more ramping

Magus of the Candelabra - Untapping loads of land, useful on Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, Temple of the False God, Scorched Ruins, Kessig Wolf Run

Silklash Spider block flyers and kill them with it's ability

Nylea, God of the Hunt to give trample to non-trampling Hydras, easily becoming a creature with devotion

ENCHANTMENTS

Asceticism - Staple

Doubling Season and Primal Vigor - Twice the +1/+1 counters on Hydras (Quadrupling with Kalonian Hydra attacking and Primordial Hydra's upkeep) and twice the tokens from Hooded Hydra, Hydra Broodmaster, Gelatinous Genesis

Doubling Season will also double the loyalty counters on Planeswalkers (Domri Rade and Xenagos, the Reveler)

Elemental Bond - Basically free card draw on all our massive creatures

Fires of Yavimaya - Haste is extremely powerful in this deck as you can well imagine, sac it to make a dude bigger too!

Mana Reflection - Double the mana generated by ALL permanents, 8 mana generated for X spells on Rosheen Meanderer,4 mana from Soul Ring , 6 mana from Thran Dynamo and 8 mana from Scorched Ruins
