In magic, hydras are a powerful creature subtype that generally belong to the green faction. Hydras come in many shapes and sizes, often possessing variable mana costs that let you adjust their power to fit your current resource production.

For just four mana, this legendary hydra has impressive 5/5 stats. Any time after entering the field, his monstrosity effect lets you once pay a green mana plus two X values to give him X +1/+1 counters. Admittedly, that’s an expensive effect, but you can use it at instant speed.

Whenever Kalonian Hydra attacks, double the number of +1/+1 counters on each creature you control. This spell costs less to cast for each green creature you control. Lifeblood Hydra enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. When Lifeblood Hydra dies, you gain life and draw cards equal to its power.

As Hydradoodle enters the battlefield, roll X six-sided dice. Hydradoodle enters the battlefield with a number of +1/+1 counters on it equal to the total of those results. When you cast this spell, you gain half X life and draw half X cards. Round down each time.
