Hydra Choices

Standard Deck Help forum

Hey all, I'm looking to add a good standard hydra to my renown deck to take advantage of my scales and other counter building, but I'm just wondering which is the best fit? I'm thinking Managorger Hydra, but is there a better fit? note: this deck is meant to be kinda budget while still being competitive, so if the option is under 5 dollars that'd be great.

Hooded Hydra or Managorger Hydra would be what id choose between.

Managorger Hydra hands down the best Hydra in Standard right now. Also,think about adding Hangarback Walker and Endless One if you haven't already.

UpperDeckerTaco I do like those cards, but this deck is mainly budget, and I really don't like the eldrazi, just my personally preference ;) I think I'll go with Managorger Hydra though, thanks all!

Just a note, Endless One is able to be cast at any stage of the game for pure value. I can't think of a creature that did. With a scales on board, it just gets better. 2 mana 3/3's are hard to come by.

I agree, Kalonian Hydra is amazing in modern. Also, I know Endless One is a good card, I just personally don't like the eldrazi and it would not fit the theme of this deck.
