Hail Hydra! Hydra are fun to play!

I would recommend a couple cards that work well in my +1/+1 mono green counter deck.
Llanowar Reborn
Mutant's Prey
Burst of Strength
Predator Ooze - Goes crazy with hardened scales!
Cytoplast Root-Kin?

Cut Genesis Hydra, because its ability doesn't work with x mana cost cards!
Replace it with Primordial Hydras! (or predator ooze if you don't mind going off theme)

Also Cut endless one because hydras are better. IMO

Or do whatever you want. lol

I like the idea but i don't understand the genesis hydra. Most of the time it won't do a thing. And if it is only to have an hydra i think there is something better to play.

Definitely. Drop the Genesis Hydras and move the Managorgers to main. Nothing embodies a Hydra / Counter deck theme more than a Managorger

How do you have a hydra +1/+1 counters deck without the best hydra in magic, Kalonian Hydra?

Check out my hydra deck.

Decent hydra counter deck but your running a bit low on land...with 18 land you're going to get mana screwed for sure. Despite the low costing creatures you will still want to beef them up with more counters ergo more mana needed, I'd suggest at least 20-22 land. Other than that Forced Adaptation is a nice addition, works really well with Predator Ooze, Primordial Hydra or Gyre Sage (for that added mana maybe?).

May I suggest Kalonian Hydra?
It doubles all the counters on creatures you control when it attacks. Should do the extra trick ^^
And maybe Longshot Squad which gives all your creatures with a +1/+1 counter reach. That should cover the flyers.
I like your deck alot! I my self have a hydra themed deck aswell only mine is mono green you should check it out!

May I suggest some mana ramping? I would throw in Wild Growth, Overgrowth, and Whisperer of the Wilds. Aside from mana ramping, I would suggest Mighty Emergence.

you might wanna go to 22 or 24 lands, it helps. you could take out the bow, you don't need deathtouch when you got massive hyrdas

I can't give you a thumbs up till you add some land. 20 isn't enough for this type of deck.

I was looking at this deck, I suggest that you put in some dual lands such as a full playset of Yavimaya Coast and two Evolving Wilds; they are excellent for playing one of them on a first turn to boost mana and to have more possibilities. This deck cannot run smoothly with twenty lands, its best you run the deck with 24-25 lands at least (My Sliver deck runs 25 and runs very smooth). I like this deck and its is quite well built but putting a playset of Yavimaya Coast (Origins version is the cheapest) will help a lot to make the deck run smooth. I meant no offence, just giving you advice from my side. I hope you find this of help to you.

I don't really see what Predator Ooze is doing in the deck O.O If u don't have any spells that can destroy his creatures it doesn't work well so i think that u can concentrate on the others hydras.
Still this deck is nice, i agree with NinjaSheeps, a few more lands wouldn't hurt and the Nylea's bow isn't obligated, mostly if u erase predator Ooze.
Your legendary land Nikthos fits so well in this deck it gives me a boner !
I love the transmit +1+1 counters idea. But i never focus on a good strategy.
Last thing i think that u could replace 2 misquoter hydra with 2 Kalonian because Kalonian is a bitch monster xc.
Anyway that's just thought as Silent Taco said do whatever u want ^^

I would recommend Doubling Season instead of Primal Vigor as Primal Vigor allows all players to benefit from it. Doubling Season only benefits its caster
