Flying Hydras... what could be scarier?

please comment

as a note: these are all cards I currently own

hmm, seeing as a lot of decks I've been looking at recently have this, lets add a why these cards section

back board cards:

Elvish Mystic turn 1 mana ramp

Sylvan Caryatid turn 2 mana ramp, good aggro blocker, hexproof, gives me blue mana if I don't already have it

Kiora's Follower turn 2 mana ramp, plus awesome to combo with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx and can be used for pseudo vigilance on a larger creature

Courser of Kruphix turn 2-3 land drop fixer, life gain, aggro blocker, devotion

Prophet of Kruphix turn 3-5 key card to play before any other big creatures if possible. Creature flash-ins, pseudo vigilance, always have mana open for responses

attackers:

Mistcutter Hydra x cost haste pro blue uncounterable... Screw your control and take the hit like a man

Genesis Hydra x-cost big baddie and a searcher for a finisher/blocker

Kalonian Hydra makes himself bigger as well as cards like Genesis Hydra, Prime Speaker Zegana and Polukranos, World Eater plus trample. Awesom to play and swings as at least 8/8 on first attack

Polukranos, World Eater 5/5 for 4 and can clear out annoying creatures

Arbiter of the Ideal flier which is super beneficial and the inspired trigger yanks more cards off the top of my deck to flood the field faster

Progenitor Mimic copy one of my big guys like Kalonian Hydra or Arbiter of the Ideal to bring it in for the finish or copy an opponent creature to match up with them

finishers

Thassa, God of the Sea unblockable maker and scry

Nylea, God of the Hunt trample giver

Archetype of Imagination ground the opponent and swing over with flying for the kill

misc utility

Soul of New Phyrexia give my guys indestructible to avoid board wipes

primespeaker zegana card draw

Chord of Calling yank a finisher from the deck

Kruphix, God of Horizons unlimited hand size and mana that doesn't empty for bigger Polukranos, World Eater or Genesis Hydra or Chord of Calling and I don't have to worry about discarding after a draw from primespeaker zegana

Polymorphist's Jest combo with tramplers to make sure my damage goes through or avoid a big hit against me

Phyrexian Revoker avoid Elspeth, Sun's Champion neg 3 ability

oh and some of you may be wondering where kiora went, well, she didn't fit in all too well unfortunately, but I liked the name...
