HAIL HYDRA!
Hey peeps! This is my first deck posted on Tapped Out. Being a poor university student, I aim to make budget standard decks that are fun and competitive. If you like this deck please give it a +1. Feel free to comment and ask questions below. Thanks!
Mana Ramp
As Hydras have a high mana cost and needs more mana to pump up, mana ramp is needed.
- Elvish Mystic
- Kiora's Follower + Market Festival - Untap enchanted land for more mana
- Market Festival + Voyaging Satyr - Untap enchanted land for more mana
| No. Untaps | Current Mana Pool | Total Mana Pool |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | -2 | +2 |
| 1 | 0 | +4 |
| 2 | +2 | +6 |
| 3 | +4 | +8 |
Infinite Mana Combos
Make ∞/∞ Hydras with these Infinite mana combos!
- Kiora's Follower + Kiora's Follower + Illusionist's Bracers - Enchanted follower untaps land, Bracers copy untaps 2nd follower then 2nd follower untaps enchanted follower. This can also be used as an infinite untap/draw combo with Oracle's Insight
- Kiora's Follower + Illusionist's Bracers + Market Festival + Thassa's Ire - Untap enchanted land twice for 6 mana then untap follower with Thassa's Ire. Can also be done with Voyaging Satyr
- Kiora's Follower + Market Festival + Market Festival + Thassa's Ire - Untap enchanted land for 5 mana then untap follower with Thassa's Ire. Can also be done with Voyaging Satyr
Use all your mana again on your opponents turns?!
Prophet of Kruphix untaps land and creatures every turn!
On your opponents turn you can:
- Double counters on Heroes' Bane
- Make Hydra Broodmaster Monstrous
- Tap your opponents creatures with Thassa's Ire
- Draw another card with Oracle's Insight
- or SUMMON MORE HYDRAS!!!
Hydra Tactics
Double Counters - Since Hydras all use counters, their power and toughness can pretty much be doubled with Kalonian Hydra or Solidarity of Heroes.
Survivability - One of your Hydras is about to die? No problem. Sacrifice it with Scourge of Skola Vale , Bioshift counters to another Hydra or make all Hydras hexproof with Archetype of Endurance.
Swing Hydras FTW! - Tap your opponent out with your large mana pool and Thassa's Ire. Trample over them with large Kalonian Hydra or Scourge of Skola Vale . Return all opponents nonland permanents to their hand with Cyclonic Rift. Archetype of Imagination = FLYING HYDRAS!?!
Example Draw
Turn 1: Land, Elvish Mystic
Turn 2: Land, Elvish Mystic, Kiora's Follower or Voyaging Satyr
Turn 3: Land, tap 2x land and 2x Elvish Mystic to play Market Festival on remaining land. Tap enchanted land twice for Prophet of Kruphix
Turn 3.5: Due to Prophet of Kruphix, you have 10 mana open to play 2 Hydras on your opponents turn
Turn 4: Land, 10/10 Mistcutter Hydra, swing with 3 Hydras
