Aaaaaaaand Hydras.

For the most part I think hydras are pretty boring, but Polukranos, Engine of Ruin   gives it a unique twist, basically turning all of our hydras into Wormcoil Engines.

With this in mind, the goal is to ramp into and flip Polukranos Reborn  , then start playing your hydras. However, we will almost always declare X as 0, so the hydra immediately dies. Effectively, this is 1-2 mana for a 3/3 lifelinker and a 3/3 reacher.

After that, sense there aren't many hydras (15 total, but one was $12 so I'm running 14) with the 0-toughness requirement in our colors, we have reanimation! Thankfully we're aloud to run the usually terrible reanimation cards, but because our Hydras have a CMC of 1-2 and a power of 0, we can resurrect them with basically anything. Our Sun Titan, Bishop of Rebirth and Guardian Scalelord all become better Grave Titans, acting as repeatable reanimation. We have a few other sources of reanimation, but those are the coolest probably. (Keep in mind, Cosmic Rebirth doesn't just hit creatures.)

Finally, I've got a few sacrifice outlets and Pod cards. The Pod cards (Birthing Pod, Pyre of Heroes and Vivien on the Hunt's second ability) should almost always be used on our tokens to search up our 1 mana hydras. They essentially become an entomb that also gives us 6 power.

Problem with this deck: we NEED our commander, and it has all the weaknesses of a token deck. I've included some boardwide indestructible options in the maybeboard, so feel free to swap those in if it becomes a problem, I didn't know what to cut.
