@@gonorland you got it wrong. He's crazy good and can singlehandedly cover 3 roles perfectly in hydra. Simply he doesn't fit into the best teams because he's limited to those three roles, which are not mandatory for optimal results. He's low on raw damage, doesn't enhance other champions' damage and doesn't protect the whole team by himself.
Since Mythical champs are outrageously difficult to acquire, I think I'd limit the list to Legendaries, which would easily make room for Mithrala, Nekmo Thaar, Sulfuryion, etc.
I’d rather see a replacement list. Ie take the top 5 Damage & Supports. If you don’t have X, Y is the next best option. More helpful to most of us than staring at lists of champs we will never have! Thanks!
The Top 20 Hydra Champs for Each Role: Block Buff: Firrol, Tuhanarak Provoke: -Archer- , Krisk, Harima, Alaz, Grazzur Veil/Cleanse: Mikage, Firrol, Padraig, Tuhanarak, Cardiel Increase SPD: Krisk, Padarig, Razelvarg, Tuhanarak, Lydia Decrease SPD: -Archer- , Krisk Decrease DEF/Weaken: Varl, LydiaX2, VenusX2, Michinaki Decrease ACC/Increase RES: FirrolX2, Grazzur, Androc Damage Dealer: Taras, Gharol, Varl, Acrizia, Harima, Alaz, Razelvarg, Grazzur, Venus(burn), Michinaki Support: anyone who's not a damage dealer Ally Attack: Mikage, Cardiel, Padraig Turn Meter Boost: -Archer- , Taras, Padraig, Fyna, Androc Hex: -Archer- , Michinaki so few decrease spd and decrease acc options, makes it hard for me to drop Gwyndolin to fill in some of the top 20 also have none of these provokers to replace my Islin/Visix and Kantra block buff options are limited too, I don't have Tuhanarak so I can only use Uugo on my second team

Husk and Geo do hardly any damage compared to the ones he mentioned in the video. They probably do 5 or more times less damage. 350M on NM is good but no where near top tier. Husk is WAY worse than acrizia. And Acrizia has been out of the top non-trunda teams for many months if not a year or more. Varl and other scaling nukers can just do SO much more damage with even just good (and not amazing) gear. Sham and Uugo are still in great teams that can do 1 billion+ though.
On Harima, I simply swap a defense banner for an accuracy banner for Hydra and she provokes very well when combined with the 80 additional accuracy from the Area Bonuses.
Nub-Androc is used for those hydra teams with lady mikage, androc, and Taras because its kinda like the old cadaver team-3 buff extenders-your Gharol and taras always have max buffs on allies which is insane for taras nuke and Gharols A2. His extension also adds different buffs-increase res, strengthen and cont. heal. You get a team of pretty much everyone having max buffs that never run out.
Haven't watched the video yet (waiting for the wife to get back home) but just wanted to say keep up the good work! 👍 Ignore all the nay sayers and haters! You keep doing you and the good things will keep coming. You have become our #1 CC due to your hard work - looking forward to tuning in to your CvC stream tomorrow.
Harima even in arena build can place all the required debuffs at least on hard/brutal if you add ascension and area bonuses. In my brutal team she does like 500 mil dmg being only provoker and decrease atk champ. She pairs so well with Mikage hitting for 1mil with Mikage doing her A1. For me she is 3in1 champ making room for second ally attack champ.
I would love to fuse Mikage. It seems Plarium doesn't feel the same way and has turned off Dalaaja for my account. I've pulled more shards for that damn epic than any other champ I have tried to get lol.
Jist getting the Archer in my team took me from 90 million on hard to 212 million. What really surprised me is her healing. She's easily doing 10 - 12 million in healing every time. The ONLY reason my run ends is getting consumed. She's amazing.
I've played for 5 years and have done every event to get Trunda and no dice. She's even more difficult to get now since she's this OP and everyone wants her now. Guaranteed, Plarium adjusted her drop rate just like they did the rates for Mikages fusion. Those rares before Mikage were dime a dozen, now just stupid lego drop% levels.
Nub. I know your focus was on the champs that yield the super high damage counts. I'd be interested to see a list geared toward players progressing. Maybe who do you sub in when you don't have those big guns on your roster.
The logic of Yumeko not being the problem can be used the other way around. Trunda on her own doesn't do millions of damage without the double Yumeko behind her. They should fix both.
Well yes I agree, but Trundas attack (second hit) does crit damage on top of crit damage. They fixed this on that one rare dwarf champ. If they were to fix that, one big part (most of it) of the problem would be gone
@@thomasleity437 The problem with the A2 is that if you have double yumeko you can use that skill back to back. Fix Yumeko broken reset skill and big part (most of it) will be gone. My point still stands.
@@cesaraguirre4577 this time: no. You either do not know about this problem and just ignore my complete comment or you undermine the problem. If they would adapt the skill as they did with the rare dwarf, it wouldn't kill the hydra heads instantly and it would even teams out... Basically as nubs said: other teams use double yumeko, yet teams with her score 25times the damage.
@@thomasleity437 you can have Trunda teams and not break hydra stupidly, unless, you get a double Yumeko with her, you can even bring other reset champs and it's not stupid crazy as with Yumeko, so what's your point again? Trunda is part of the problem, not the whole problem. I'm not saying Trunda is not broken, I'm just calling out on the bullshit people play on she being the only problem, which is a lie.
Thanks for great content… a couple of controversial comments … 1. Firrol is NOT a direct swap for Dutchess in every team. I have both and i do agree that he is good BUT! He doesn’t bring increase atk! No damage mitigation passive and of course revive AND SPEED AURA. I swapped my dutchess for him and i can go to end of turn meter with both setups but i get almost same damage and with him i have to manually alot more… my comp is rathalos, krisk, uggo, venus, michi… Rathalos will do similar damage with both because one comp brings increase atk vs non but he has that passive…. Another underrated mention for me would be Alatreon Blademaster… he keeps my brutal team alive with no revivers and only uggo healing.
I don't remember positively, but I think saph did a video about a month ago with just one and 2 pain keepers. Check his channels history, shouldn't be too hard to find
@robertpease9834 I think the point is that Trunda does so much damage, she should be killing all the heads because her skills are always up. She is the only damage that matters. Watch the video
Hi ,I think that you could add Krixia she basically play with the hydras removing buff and decreasing ally cooldown,i have it and that’s why I can tell you about it,by the way you have a great channel congratulations
i set my alaz to automatically morph to his 2nd form, probably just my team though, he keeps some of my revivers alive with that heal and res/strengthen buffs
Please do a guide on androc I'm having a hard time understanding how his base form passive works I though ithos would be great with him cuz the triple hit AOE but I think the tm fill is capped per skill cuz I thought it would be a 60% tm increase but it's not even close
Great video for sure 💯👍🏽 can we get an epics version of this. Honestly I only have 2 of the legos that were mentioned here so I’m not working with much lol. But I have plenty of epics for sure. I don’t get good hydra lego pulls from shards smh
Interesting. You know I don’t think You have to rank Hydra champions as single actors. Instead it is more important to see which duo or trio work out best. So instead of having section in HellHades web page about Best Hydra champs, I would benefit more of which 2-3 champs work best together. That is because I have around 160 legos and all the epics and I just need to figure out which 18 champions I need for best results. Why champions are good for Hydra in some cases is not obvious, or why specific champ works best if it is in specific set and running in specific speed. Looking forward for more great hydra content! In our clan CvC and Hydra is the main focus, even if I am F2P.
Hi Nubs. You should have said that Hydra has become an horrible game mode with Hydra Clash. It takes sooooo long to play each key to maximize your score, it's awful. Plarium really needs to reduce the maximum number of turns. People feel really bad about Hydra Clash now and it should be the opposite since this is a cool competitive game mode that gives some nice rewards.
you know what?? i have none of those champs, none of them!! but i do have 2 trundas, still trying to figure out how i can best build a team with them (no reset champs) and have revitalized my journey toward lydia, only faction im not on stage 18-20 is the new one, also thanks for the video Nub!!!
Realistically you probably could do a top 40. So many champs that got left off that are very viable. Interesting that you don’t have a AOE block buff champ in your top 20. On a side note. The Barbarian archer is a cheat code for Hydra. Her passive does so much healing for your team. It really is unfortunate their was not an easy viable way for everyone to get her. Ultimate lockdown Hydra champ.
i have 2 trundas and a kymar. maybe 20M on easy. only other champ i have is michinaki, whom i cant gear to the brutal or higher levels. (5 yr daily player)
@@gkar9757 A former content creator who left the community already, however he hosted Content creator awards in the past and he feels left out, betrayed, stolen from etc. by the Community Awards Plarium is hosting with Nubs. I don't really agree with many of his takes but he's stirring up the pot and calls out Nubs in a menacing way
Alaz is absurd! I have a team scoring 300 mln damage (duchess, angar, ratalos, nekmo, artak and uugo) then I replace Angar with Alaz and my damage increase to 650 mln, he brings by himself 260 mln. something I don't even expect to see!
The thing about saying yumeko is not the problem is people without Yumeko can use Trunda to get good Damage but not break the game. Yumokos reset is what takes this to crazy levels. If they were to nerf Trunda it would hurt players with Trunda a more accessible champion. Double yumeko is a whale thing. It won’t get nerfed . People spent a ton of money to get Yumeko
I get why you didn't pick Duchess, but while I actually have some of the champs on your list duchess is the key to making my top team work and I would choose her over them.
duchess is completely out of all 3 teams at this point, and i dont even have firrol. if youre tanky enough theres just no point in bringing her along. its always better to bring a shamael instead unless you absolutely need a reviver. on the who just does or doesnt make it in, id say nekmo, gnut or mithrala should all go in over razzledazzle. just cause their value to the rest of the team is much greater, and they work in all kinds of teams. you can make one very specific type of team wit razzmatazz, and if its built well it can do really good numbers. but he has very little value in any other type of hydra composition. so you either build a team 100% around him, or you dont bring him at all, ever. its a personal preference thing but i always value the high utility plug and play options alot higher than the pure specialists.
Graazur "solid" damage - My Graazur hits for 240m in Nightmare and my stats are ~5k def, 200 crit damage, 230 spd. People still really haven't gotten to witness the power of Slayer. The 9 piece bonus has some kind of calculation thing happening when hitting decapped heads with hex. When it procs, I can get anywhere from 5m-20m in one hit with the enemy max hp.
the only one i find really questionable is harima. She is a great dps especially paired with mikage, but i´m not sure why she made your top 20. Cardial is somewhat borderline, but i can see why he is there. Everyone else i agree with probably. Missing not totally from the list, but should have at least been mentioned imo is mashalled.
The List of Champs he talks about:
1:00 Trunda Teams are still broken (with Yumeko, Lydia, Gurptuk, Shu-Zhen)
5:20 Honorable mentions that did not make the list cause they are to new
6:30 Start of the List (not sorted by ranking)
6:45 Lady Mikage
8:15 Nergigante Archer
9:30 Taras the Fierce
10:30 Gharol Bloodmaul
12:00 Krisk the Ageless

16:35 Cardiel
17:45 Grand Oak Padraig
19:20 Acrizia
21:15 Harima, OP in Arena, still great for Hydra
22:45 Alaz the Sunbearer, just keep him in form 1

27:35 Tuhanarak
28:35 Lydia the Deathsiren
29:25 Venus
30:10 Michinaki
31:55 Fyna Blade of Aravia, massive potential still to be discovered
35:30 Androc the Glorious, even after the Enfeeble nerf
What of nekmo and the new fusion
Thanks for this
Ummm we forgot nekmo?
Thanks bro!!
I have none of these champs and have been playing for nearly 3 years 👍
Honestly shocked Supreme Galek didn't make the list. He hard carries my team with Block buffs + HP Burns + tons of extra turns. Damage is insane
Just because he is strong on your weak team doesn’t mean he is stongest 20 in the game.
Plenty of champs can carry whole teams, but they're still mid tier. There are just so many champions
I totally agree he might be one of the most underrated Champs for hydra

I'm surprised you didn't mention Sulfuryion...best burn champion for Hydra IMHO.
Sulfuryion matches my Gnut in my NM Hydra team for top dmg.
Gizmak is insanely good as well. Pain Link is super fun and Gizmak brings a lot with him.
Exactly... No Sulfuryion or Nekmo?
Cardiel : power buffs, cleansing, revive on death, healing, and ally attack he does the job of of like 3 others all in one
This video explains why I can't get past hard hydra.
I just got Grand Oak from saving up 20 sacreds, and doing the guarantee event. For the first time I did over 35 million. And he has no masteries yet.
I haven't booked mine yet and he's helped my brutal team immensley. 10/10 champ
I did 100m with him in team on brutal. Before that I did around 50 at max. He is insane champ.
Mine is unbooked and he's great in hydra
I replaced Elva with him and went from 250 to 450m on nightmare, with some other small changes. He's a beast.
Nub, something you didn’t mention about Harima is her synergy with lady mikage a1. Turns lady mikage a1’s into millions of damage each use
Great with michinaki too, he puts out burns on his a1
The Top 20 Hydra Champs for Each Role:
Block Buff: Firrol, Tuhanarak
Provoke: -Archer- , Krisk, Harima, Alaz, Grazzur
Veil/Cleanse: Mikage, Firrol, Padraig, Tuhanarak, Cardiel
Increase SPD: Krisk, Padarig, Razelvarg, Tuhanarak, Lydia
Decrease SPD: -Archer- , Krisk
Decrease DEF/Weaken: Varl, LydiaX2, VenusX2, Michinaki
Decrease ACC/Increase RES: FirrolX2, Grazzur, Androc
Damage Dealer: Taras, Gharol, Varl, Acrizia, Harima, Alaz, Razelvarg, Grazzur, Venus(burn), Michinaki
Support: anyone who's not a damage dealer
Ally Attack: Mikage, Cardiel, Padraig
Turn Meter Boost: -Archer- , Taras, Padraig, Fyna, Androc
Hex: -Archer- , Michinaki
so few decrease spd and decrease acc options, makes it hard for me to drop Gwyndolin to fill in some of the top 20
also have none of these provokers to replace my Islin/Visix and Kantra
block buff options are limited too, I don't have Tuhanarak so I can only use Uugo on my second team
Good to see that you looked into Androc after my comment, he is just so good for hydra!

Thanks, I just pulled Gurptuk yesterday, I was going to vault him
don't forget hp burn is so critical for basically negating poison cloud, enabling even more damage

Those rares before Mikage were dime a dozen, now just stupid lego drop% levels.
Been playing more than 4 yrs and still can’t get trunda
Nub. I know your focus was on the champs that yield the super high damage counts. I'd be interested to see a list geared toward players progressing. Maybe who do you sub in when you don't have those big guns on your roster.
Sulfuryion 100% should be on this list! Absolute carry for my hydra team
I agree... I'm surprised he's not on this list. I'm also surprised Nekmo Tharr isn't either
Still can’t fuse Mikage either. One damn epic will not drop for me.
Great timing ... need to build my Hydra team soon ... love your content bro !
Still waiting for Trunda to come to my account ! 😩
...watches as my counter attack and block damage gets spread amongst the Hydra heads and softly weep...
The logic of Yumeko not being the problem can be used the other way around.
Trunda on her own doesn't do millions of damage without the double Yumeko behind her.
They should fix both.
Well yes I agree, but Trundas attack (second hit) does crit damage on top of crit damage. They fixed this on that one rare dwarf champ. If they were to fix that, one big part (most of it) of the problem would be gone
@@thomasleity437 The problem with the A2 is that if you have double yumeko you can use that skill back to back.
Fix Yumeko broken reset skill and big part (most of it) will be gone.
My point still stands.
@@cesaraguirre4577 this time: no. You either do not know about this problem and just ignore my complete comment or you undermine the problem. If they would adapt the skill as they did with the rare dwarf, it wouldn't kill the hydra heads instantly and it would even teams out... Basically as nubs said: other teams use double yumeko, yet teams with her score 25times the damage.
@@thomasleity437 you can have Trunda teams and not break hydra stupidly, unless, you get a double Yumeko with her, you can even bring other reset champs and it's not stupid crazy as with Yumeko, so what's your point again?
Trunda is part of the problem, not the whole problem. I'm not saying Trunda is not broken, I'm just calling out on the bullshit people play on she being the only problem, which is a lie.
Yes PLEASE Nubs! My Hydra teams need help and your guidance would be lovely.
Thanks for great content… a couple of controversial comments …
1. Firrol is NOT a direct swap for Dutchess in every team. I have both and i do agree that he is good BUT! He doesn’t bring increase atk! No damage mitigation passive and of course revive AND SPEED AURA. I swapped my dutchess for him and i can go to end of turn meter with both setups but i get almost same damage and with him i have to manually alot more… my comp is rathalos, krisk, uggo, venus, michi…
Rathalos will do similar damage with both because one comp brings increase atk vs non but he has that passive….
Another underrated mention for me would be Alatreon Blademaster… he keeps my brutal team alive with no revivers and only uggo healing.
What do you think about bad'el with his passive? Heals and poisons to go with him.
Is it worth it to use just one Yumeko, or do you really need 2 to make her worthwhile? I am asking, because I only have one.
I don't remember positively, but I think saph did a video about a month ago with just one and 2 pain keepers. Check his channels history, shouldn't be too hard to find
@@SaphonDamocles Yeah, but 2 painkeepers will just suck the DPS down. I can kind of wait, since I still don't even have my first Trunda.
@robertpease9834 I think the point is that Trunda does so much damage, she should be killing all the heads because her skills are always up. She is the only damage that matters. Watch the video
Hi ,I think that you could add Krixia she basically play with the hydras removing buff and decreasing ally cooldown,i have it and that’s why I can tell you about it,by the way you have a great channel congratulations
I pulled graazur this past weekend and I'm so hype lol
last soul chase i managed to snag a 6 star turnda soul, reeeeeeally cant wait to get her now lol
Would love a part II with all epics and rares :) Higher chance I got some of those xD
i set my alaz to automatically morph to his 2nd form, probably just my team though, he keeps some of my revivers alive with that heal and res/strengthen buffs
Bonkers that there’s no Shamael in here, but who gets the boot, ya know?
Would LOVE a Shamael! 💕
How about a top 20 Hydra damage champs and a top 20 Support champs in hydra?
i'd suggest braking this list down into roles for Hydra
Every champion you mentioned I have I could use 3 taras and a ghrol in hydra with my +4 krisk
I got so lucky. I pulled 2 archers and I’ll hold on to both of them forever.
Please do a guide on androc I'm having a hard time understanding how his base form passive works I though ithos would be great with him cuz the triple hit AOE but I think the tm fill is capped per skill cuz I thought it would be a 60% tm increase but it's not even close
Great video and concept.
Great video for sure 💯👍🏽 can we get an epics version of this. Honestly I only have 2 of the legos that were mentioned here so I’m not working with much lol. But I have plenty of epics for sure. I don’t get good hydra lego pulls from shards smh
I can’t tell you how happy I am that, after 6 years of playing this game, I have TWO of these champs 😂
it's insane how i've played this game F2P for like 5 years and have non of these except for the rabbit
Gizmat the terrible with his hp burns? Any good?
Interesting.
You know I don’t think You have to rank Hydra champions as single actors. Instead it is more important to see which duo or trio work out best. So instead of having section in HellHades web page about Best Hydra champs, I would benefit more of which 2-3 champs work best together. That is because I have around 160 legos and all the epics and I just need to figure out which 18 champions I need for best results. Why champions are good for Hydra in some cases is not obvious, or why specific champ works best if it is in specific set and running in specific speed.
Looking forward for more great hydra content! In our clan CvC and Hydra is the main focus, even if I am F2P.
I would put Hierophant Lazarious as top champ too, he can fulfill several rolls at once, rezer, attack up buffer and decent DPS
Hi Nubs. You should have said that Hydra has become an horrible game mode with Hydra Clash. It takes sooooo long to play each key to maximize your score, it's awful. Plarium really needs to reduce the maximum number of turns. People feel really bad about Hydra Clash now and it should be the opposite since this is a cool competitive game mode that gives some nice rewards.
what about 2 pain keepers with trunda if you dont have yumeko?
Should've made it top 18 seeing that we use 3 teams of 6
Loved this video thanks 😊
you know what?? i have none of those champs, none of them!! but i do have 2 trundas, still trying to figure out how i can best build a team with them (no reset champs) and have revitalized my journey toward lydia, only faction im not on stage 18-20 is the new one, also thanks for the video Nub!!!
Realistically you probably could do a top 40. So many champs that got left off that are very viable. Interesting that you don’t have a AOE block buff champ in your top 20. On a side note. The Barbarian archer is a cheat code for Hydra. Her passive does so much healing for your team. It really is unfortunate their was not an easy viable way for everyone to get her. Ultimate lockdown Hydra champ.
Tuhanarak with block buffs and the debuff spread as a proxy. As she is void this works probably as good as aoe block buffs from e.g. Uugo or Pinthroy.
@@bigu1874 also firrol
i have 2 trundas and a kymar. maybe 20M on easy. only other champ i have is michinaki, whom i cant gear to the brutal or higher levels. (5 yr daily player)
needed this thank you
Good list but Gizmak (Gizsmack) should be added with pain link, aoe decrease defense and all the burns with a taunt he is a hydra beast
Sadly, half of your top 20 are void legos or mythicals I don't have. Interesting about a few of them, though. I'd like to try out Mikage more.
IPR just did 300 billion in nightmare this week
Bro, perhaps you'll already noticed but you're being called out by Saffronman on a very menacing way.
What did he say?
Who's that?
@@gkar9757 A former content creator who left the community already, however he hosted Content creator awards in the past and he feels left out, betrayed, stolen from etc. by the Community Awards Plarium is hosting with Nubs. I don't really agree with many of his takes but he's stirring up the pot and calls out Nubs in a menacing way
Imagine caring about UA-cam “drama”. Couldn’t be me 🤷♂️
@@kevinj33he is just jealous
He left the community and that's on him so him acting like a child is quite disappointing
... and yet everytime someone argues that Trunda needs a nerf hell breaks loose
Shoutout to Artak, Mordeai and all around aoe burners who cam only get your team to 35mil + ..You are doing just fine guys. Keep it up
More more more Hydra content and Nub cookies please❤
Well that's just great, game over man! I have none of these champions!
Alaz is absurd! I have a team scoring 300 mln damage (duchess, angar, ratalos, nekmo, artak and uugo) then I replace Angar with Alaz and my damage increase to 650 mln, he brings by himself 260 mln. something I don't even expect to see!
The thing about saying yumeko is not the problem is people without Yumeko can use Trunda to get good Damage but not break the game. Yumokos reset is what takes this to crazy levels. If they were to nerf Trunda it would hurt players with Trunda a more accessible champion. Double yumeko is a whale thing. It won’t get nerfed . People spent a ton of money to get Yumeko
Androc got nerved (enfeeble not working on bosses). Still top 20?
A love the list idea.
Michi is probably in a lot of teams because of lady mikage, he is a shadowkin with a strong A1 😆
I get why you didn't pick Duchess, but while I actually have some of the champs on your list duchess is the key to making my top team work and I would choose her over them.
Hey nub, u say Krisk can solo provoke with enough speed. can u link me to something or tell me the speed needed to do that. thanks
Me too would like to know that 😊
duchess is completely out of all 3 teams at this point, and i dont even have firrol. if youre tanky enough theres just no point in bringing her along. its always better to bring a shamael instead unless you absolutely need a reviver.
on the who just does or doesnt make it in, id say nekmo, gnut or mithrala should all go in over razzledazzle. just cause their value to the rest of the team is much greater, and they work in all kinds of teams. you can make one very specific type of team wit razzmatazz, and if its built well it can do really good numbers. but he has very little value in any other type of hydra composition. so you either build a team 100% around him, or you dont bring him at all, ever. its a personal preference thing but i always value the high utility plug and play options alot higher than the pure specialists.
When i see those numbers i cant understand how the hell its possible.. my record on normal is 115M. and about 50 M on hard..
What about androc I pulled him and lady micage
Is there a link to this discord?
Now we need the epics list
i ave never heard of these champions...
3 years and $700+ spent and I don't have a single one of these champs lol
Weak hits are the death of Sicia. 4 turn burn with no extra turn is rough.
My top20 hydra champions:
1. Trunda
2. Yumeko #1
3. Yumeko #2
4. Shuzen
5. Arbiter
6. Lydia
7. …
Actually that’s it.
Graazur "solid" damage - My Graazur hits for 240m in Nightmare and my stats are ~5k def, 200 crit damage, 230 spd. People still really haven't gotten to witness the power of Slayer. The 9 piece bonus has some kind of calculation thing happening when hitting decapped heads with hex. When it procs, I can get anywhere from 5m-20m in one hit with the enemy max hp.
surprised to see Harima on here tbh
the only one i find really questionable is harima. She is a great dps especially paired with mikage, but i´m not sure why she made your top 20. Cardial is somewhat borderline, but i can see why he is there. Everyone else i agree with probably. Missing not totally from the list, but should have at least been mentioned imo is mashalled.
I suppose you forgot Gizmak, the ogre champ mythical. He is better than atleast half of your list in hydra.
Hidden gem, Gwendolyn..
