MTG Combo: Forgotten Ancient + Hardened Scales

Fonstw on Green Landfall and +1/+1 Counters

Me likey!I really enjoy the Forgotten Ancient + Hardened Scales combination: Ancient gains +1/+1, means an extra +1/+1, gives one to another creature which means that it gains an extra +1/+1!Two Forgotten Ancients and one Hardened Scales on the field, and it's beautiful!Courser of Kruphix + Rampaging Baloths or Fastbond + Rampaging Baloths also makes nice scenes fit for evil laughter in my head

After playtesting in TappedOut's playtester, I wouldn't suggest swapping Scute Mob for Naturalize, although I can see Naturalize would be a VERY useful card in some occasions.I'd swap out Oran-Rief Hydra, though, since Scute Mob can be played quick, and becomes very deadly very fast in this deck. (+4/+4 for EACH turn you have 5 or more lands?!)Still not 100% sure about that advice, though.

But can I ask what Khalni Hydra's function in your sideboard is?
