Description

"Great power has always baffled primitive men. HYDRA is assembling an arsenal to destroy my enemies in one stroke, wherever they are, regardless of how many forces they possess, all in a matter of hours."

―Johann Schmid

 

That's right, cut off one head, two more shall take its place.  Ozolith makes hydras truly hydras in MTG!

 

Hydra Tribal deck of Simic Origins

 

Notable Interactions:

Ozolith and any counters, of course, including adding to Incubation Druidimage to increase its mana ramping.

Callous Dismissalimage to slow opponent down, recall any of your tokened-up creatures to your hand when Ozo is out, or recall one of your planeswalkers to refresh it's loyalty counters.

Bioessence Hydraimage and any of the 9 planeswalkers.  Often better to put the hyrda down first and then the planeswalker on the following turn if the board state allows a choice so that you can attack the same turn all of the additional counters land on the hydra.

Gargos, Vicious Watcherimage makes other hydras 4 mana cheaper to cast.  With planeswalkers on board, this makes for a nasty Bio Hydra for only 2 mana.

Kasmina 's Transformation can either stiffle opponent creatures or boost your own land creature (from Nissa), Voracious Hydraimage, or zombie token by +1/+1.  I have won games by a single point of damage that came from playing this card on my own creature.  You can also cast it upon one of your own mana ramp creatures or a 1/1 zombie token later in game if Gargos is out to trigger a fight between Gargos and opponent creature.

Not convinced on Narset, yet. It's good for counters on bio-hydra and limiting opponent card draw, yet the -2 usually pulls blank options from my own hand. I'll probably go for 2 more Kiora or Dovin, though not sure which.
