Hydras and corpse hack for double counters
This deck has been viewed 788 times.
Bioshift is a smart idea. Get a hydra out with corpsejack, your opponent might be okay with it, but play one or two bioshifts out of nowhere and boom, big problems.I like this deck, good job.Here is my hydra deck, I love playing this deck.http://www.mtgvault.com/xreverie8/decks/hydras/My only suggestion, since you are running black, would be Jarad-Golgari Lich Lord. Still standard and an awesome win condition when playing hydras. Also Rogues Passage, another great win condition.

I really like the idea of rogues passage and jarad, when I play my golgari deck I bounce counters around from lotleth troll to wild beast master and keep getting more and more, swing for a lot of damage and the sac them to jarad to finish them off
But what do I drop for them? I could prob drop two polukranos and two give // take
I don't know what I would drop. I thought Zhur-Taa, but he is your big source of ramp. Since there isn't a lot of ramp in this deck, maybe drop a hydra with an X in its manna cost. polukranos and Kalonian are 4 and 5 drops. Not hard to achieve. I would try dropping 2 mistcutters, you can't afford to drop savageborn, double strike makes him amazing when you consider you could be doubling his counters.Sideboard the 2 Mistcutters though, in case the Jarad setup isn't working you can always switch it out.Maybe drop some Give//Take for some rogues passage. Since there isn't a lot of ramp, running 26 lands might work, but that is a lot of lands in my experience and may cause you to mana flood. Give it a try though.Maybe try switching out zhur-taa for sylvan caryatid if youre having trouble hitting curtain colored mana.
So far with the shock lands I haven't had to many off color problems, and yeah give is basically just 3 or 48 counters depending on how many corpsejack are out but rogues passage is lethal with savage born
This is awesome! I love hydras. The only thing is, though, that it seems like it might be a liiiittle bit slow to pump out the big creatures. Hrm. How does this normally play out for you?
It goes pretty well if you can get a corpsejack out it's game, even it you pay two into a hydra it's a 4/4 and when you attack with Kalonian it quadruples from him and corpsejack also if he's put Kalonian is an 8/8 for five cmc.
