Not bad. I like the flavor, an ancient hydra falling apart. Not bad in play either. You can use it's ability to get rid of possible blockers and then strike home for 5 damage. Like a lava axe, that also destroys creatures along the path. Or can block, sometimes even attack twice for 10. Or simply ping the player for 5 if you have enough mana. 4/5

Nice card, but definitely one of the weaker Hydras. Possibly the weakest.

A bit disappointing that it only has 1 toughness, especially for a 5CMC card.

This is a sorcery of 5 freely distributed damage for . Nothing to scoff for if you compare it to Pyrotechnics.

It's a better lava axe that also gives you a 5/1 blocker until your next upkeep.
Fantastic artwork and flavor is most of what this card has going for it. I like the number of options it gives you. One of the cooler fading cards. Sadly, it doesn't have much of a place in magic today. Fading is unloved, he plays poorly with other hydras, and many other cards do what he does better.

This is one of two uncommon hydras. The other beingClockwork Hydra.

It's ability makes it hard to chump-block, since it can lay waste to weenies in its path, and can force the defending player to make tough decisions by threatening their more powerful creatures. No matter what it ends up trading for, you always feel like you've won out - since it would fade away anyway.Perfect for the kind of mindgames red enjoys. Swing, ping, and Fling.
