The Bristling Hydra is the definite centerpiece of this deck. Play it patiently and utilize the lifegain and removal wisely and Key to the City should allow your Hydras and Arborback Stompers to beat in ftw in the mid-to-late game. Blossoming Defense and Rush of Vitality keep your Stompers up and sometimes push extra damage through, but again their main purpose is to help your creatures survive. The Rushes are especially clutch when you come up against Fumigate, which is one of the most effective cards at countering your Hydra-based assault. Deadlock Trap is some interesting tech that has tested a bit slow, but with just enough lifegain and removal to stabilize around turns 4-6, it's worth it in the long run to get that trap up and running. Bonus effect of course is that it wrecks planeswalkers too!
