Two hydras played a significant part carrying my priest deck to 7 victories in arena. With plenty of taunts to protect them and even Faceless to clone the 8/8 for 16+ damage, most of the time, the results were good. Sure, it's not a good card by itself, but in a grindy deck type it can be the mid/late game threat that wraps up the game fast.
I've had pretty good luck with hydra, I think it's a decent card in full face decks (mainly hunter) when you have chosen to completely disregard long-term control in favor of finishing off your opponent
Had a crazy arena game today, my opponent played two Bittertide hydras on turn 10, I played corrupted seer and a meteor I got off of Primordial glyph previously, boom 12 damage for lethal
Can almost agree. I played this card for a good time winning games with it. Then I played it against a shaman with volcano. 24 Damage and its dead. He struggled for the whole rest of the game to kill me. So if I wouldn't have played the Hydra into volcano I would have won 100%
I went against a pirate warrior who was running bittertide for some reason, I was playing ele shaman and after he dropped the Hydra I flooded the board with cheap elementals. His bittertide gave me lethal on the next turn :)
kripp, in the last clip just meteoring the hidra was enough, the damage it deals to its owner isnt limited by its current health (wich makes it even worse).
I lost my win condition when I played Quest Mage because of Dirty rat. My opponent ended up playing two Hydras so I discovered some Arcane missiles and Cone of Colds and pinged them until my opponent simply died because of them
i must've been extremely lucky on my last arena run then: picked rogue, played almost exclusively priests, paladins and 1 mage, got carried to 12 wins by double hydra/double crusher
Heartharena companion keeps suggesting this card as a good one, in warlock decks included. It didn't work out well a single damn time. Paying shitload of health for a small tempo advantage or having a dead draw late game is so sad. I'd pick pretty much any other epic over it in a warlock deck (except for bloodbloom, which is on the same shit-level). Also not any good in other classes.
Played Bittertide Hydra with paladin, opponent reduce it's health to 1, Blessed Champion then Adapt to windfury. Turn 6 kill in opponent's full health.
I agree. played this vs a mage on turn 5. it got hit with cone of cold and a ping, turn 6. turn seven two arcane missiles a ping and a flame caller. Me dead.
I still think its quite a good card in arena tho, i know ive for sure lost to not having an answer to it. You do need to have a solid early game for it to work tho, and yes fel reaver is sooo much better
Lol, all this comment section is filled with troll, sarcasm and kripperinos. Hydra is a good card, you just happened to get 2 games in which you have multiple low damage cards.
I made a huge misplay in Arena with this card, I had a nearly full board and my opponent had no board so I played this card as sort of BM, he played Unleash and I actually ended up losing :/
I'd rather Hydra, only because I lost to a rogue because I got it from firelands, literally lost my whole deck by the next turn and it was my final game for 12 wins, was already winning and instant loss after that. At least Hydra won't fuck me over as hard.
logged into HS just to get the 3 free packs cause I like the pack opening animation. The deprecation of cards/decks is to much like being a hamster on wheel. No more for me. Still love watching Krip and Wow Hobs HS videos though.

7:24 Behold - the might of Stormwind.
Pretty good top deck. Thanks to might of Stormwind!
Hmmm... deal 3 damage to the enemy hero and die or deal 5 damage to the enemy hero? Tough question...
YOU MEAN ME WITH THAT 3 DAMAGE?
I will slay that mighty Hydra after I've captured Jerusalem!
DEUS VULT! WE SHALL RECLAIM THE HOLYLAND.... oh wait
Can't capture Jerusalem, but I can capture everyone's attention with my lit rap skills
DEUS VULT
AVE MARIA
NON NOBIS DOMINE
It's a trap ! That's exacly what the kids say when they realise there's no candy in the van.
What The Fuckerino Kripperino You are, without a doubt, my favorite kripparrino.
I love it when little kids activate my trap card ( ͡°╭͜ʖ╮͡° )
wtf
best comment of 2017
Also what I say once I see a bulge in my gf pants.
Bittertide Hydra is great in Arena what are you talking about? No matter what it hits face, either your opponent's or yours.
This should've been SMORCerino Kripperino's comment.
intill he plays public defender
you know which minion has 8 attack (like 30% of the time) but costs 2 mana less?
Elderino Longneckerino Kripperino ME?
JARAXXURINO THE EREDORI LORDERINO OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION! OBLIVION!

that 5 mana 8/8s are so bad...i know other better cards with the same stats ;)
Barnabuserino Kripperino Me?
Barnabuserino Kripperino Reduce my cost to zero? I'd like to see you try, I'm worth billions
Biggierino Cheeserino Kripperino didn't even try to deal with the big cheeserino, no-one can downgrade ur value...
One thing to note is that it is now a chance to drop from FL portal. :o
i got insta killed by this in to volcano number 4 in a game where he couldn't win so lame
Play hydra, oponent plays volcano = get SALTY AS F*CK!
Super Super F*ucked
Hearthstone Arena Fking TYRANASAURUS REKT
Wooow loook at that
Mr. Mackey Holy Shit
my oponent played hydra i played avenging wrath
This also works fine :D
How about doing a video about the 3 mana 3/3 "attack hero and adapt"? Vicious Fledgling
its one of the best cards in arena, especially if you can get windfury.
and thats why i would like to hear Kripps opinion
Daily Card anyone? imgur.com/a/sHwMh As always i am happy about your comments :)
you are one of my favourite kripperinos, and i knowed you 3 days ago.
NewCarderino Kripperino Driver card is op.
The Driver is insane...! And the RNG is so big- if you draw the manuals, then it is so OP! I love the card, but I'm not into that RNG :'(
The first one looks even too good...
The Murloc card seems extremely OP
**Bittertide?** **What are you doing here?** **your place is in the C1-37 block**
Curatorino Kripperino Nah man, That's Rick's cell
*Hoot* *Hoot* It's not a trap!
Three videos in a day?! You spoil us, Kripp.
What's wrong with traps, Kripp? The more the merrier!
Good
Well, it's not a demon, so Siphon Soulino, where are you?
3 Kripp videos today, nice.
Trump
I ain't talkin
Stop snitchin'!
I just love seeing all the creative kripps come to life
Misterino Mackeyrino
Yes, I'm interested in seeing you check out the Necromancer.
3 Kripp videos in one day? We're so lucky. It's weird how one of them was uploaded to Trump's channel though.
Two hydras played a significant part carrying my priest deck to 7 victories in arena. With plenty of taunts to protect them and even Faceless to clone the 8/8 for 16+ damage, most of the time, the results were good. Sure, it's not a good card by itself, but in a grindy deck type it can be the mid/late game threat that wraps up the game fast.
I played arena druid arena 8-3 with this card. All three loses were when I didn't draw Hydra. And remember; face only.
and play it to empty board.
If you have the luxury to play a hydra on an empty board you are probably going to win regardless.
They're never gonna destroy my wall!
>Meteor comes down and destroys wall
Oh come on! * face explodes *
i had only a hydra on the board and a pally used avenging wrath. it only hit my face twice...
I've had pretty good luck with hydra, I think it's a decent card in full face decks (mainly hunter) when you have chosen to completely disregard long-term control in favor of finishing off your opponent
it's so great in aggressive hunter decks if you can play it on curve or adapt it
Once I played volcano on an enemy hydra in arena. He was at 30Hp, but when the volcano was done he was down at 25
Wow 3 Kripp Videos today. But in one he looks like an weird Asian.
A weird Asian* go back to grade 4 English bro
Had a crazy arena game today, my opponent played two Bittertide hydras on turn 10, I played corrupted seer and a meteor I got off of Primordial glyph previously, boom 12 damage for lethal
Can almost agree. I played this card for a good time winning games with it. Then I played it against a shaman with volcano. 24 Damage and its dead. He struggled for the whole rest of the game to kill me. So if I wouldn't have played the Hydra into volcano I would have won 100%
I went against a pirate warrior who was running bittertide for some reason, I was playing ele shaman and after he dropped the Hydra I flooded the board with cheap elementals. His bittertide gave me lethal on the next turn :)
"Lethal.... *opponent plays huge taunt* ... still lethal.... " :D
kripp, in the last clip just meteoring the hidra was enough, the damage it deals to its owner isnt limited by its current health (wich makes it even worse).
So just lowering the health of the card to like 6 would basically be a buff?
I lost my win condition when I played Quest Mage because of Dirty rat. My opponent ended up playing two Hydras so I discovered some Arcane missiles and Cone of Colds and pinged them until my opponent simply died because of them
You going to do 3.0 content in PoE?
+1 for the pun AND the reference.
i must've been extremely lucky on my last arena run then: picked rogue, played almost exclusively priests, paladins and 1 mage, got carried to 12 wins by double hydra/double crusher
it's called 'Bittertide' because of how much it's jealousy towards me makes it cry.
My only regret is that The Bogeymonsterino Kripperino isn't around to see the one time he's actually useful.
Poor guy.
Defeated a mage today that played the hydra in late game and i unleashed my hounds ... won an otherwise hopeless game !
all these kripp accounts really just put me on edge
Meteor killed that poor dinosaur :D
3 Kripp videos in 1 day wow
Would the hydra maybe be viable in a silence priest deck?
picked hydra in my hunter run - won me pretty much every game i played it. finished the run 9-3
pretty important question: 1:37-1:38 was that a thumbs up or a mini brofist?
Jamil Inumanox More like a thumbs-up.
Well I had 2 arena runs with Hydra and maybe I've been lucky but I've won every game where I've drafted it
bella Lorenzo, un altro italiano sotto i video in inglese!
Alessio Bocco eh beh, dimmi te chi fa video seri di Hearhstone in Italia...
I would love to see a Diablo 3 video from you, Kripp.
had 12 wins with 2 Hydras, but I agree with you overall.
Kripp really reminds me of Sips from the yogscast
Heartharena companion keeps suggesting this card as a good one, in warlock decks included. It didn't work out well a single damn time. Paying shitload of health for a small tempo advantage or having a dead draw late game is so sad.

"Free Diablo 3 content that's good? ... Are you kidding me, thats not how it works." exactly Kripp
i have 3 hydras in my arena deck right now
i wanna die
First time at 9 wins in this expansion, I play hydra, have lethal on board., 24 HP, and he volcano, arg.
holy fuck, master kripp is going full shaolin
I agree. played this vs a mage on turn 5. it got hit with cone of cold and a ping, turn 6. turn seven two arcane missiles a ping and a flame caller. Me dead.
You know whats funny? That unstable elemental is basically a card from the elder scrolls legends, but maybe worse because the effect can't hit face.
I once played volcano on hydra in arena and won the match xD
I just played an arena game where my turn 5 hydrarino got killed by volcano... luckily still won tho.
You didn't put the meme from star wars in the video :(
Holy haircut, robin...
I love playing bittertide hydra against mage, wait for them to play mirror entity, drop the hydra, and cash in all your tokens.
can u make a vid on galavadon? thanks!
Yeah I got that hydra off of a discover effect and just didn't play it. It's horrible.The only way it would be good is if you purify it immediately.
I still think its quite a good card in arena tho, i know ive for sure lost to not having an answer to it. You do need to have a solid early game for it to work tho, and yes fel reaver is sooo much better
does anyone know how close kripp is to an all golden collection
I've had one person play this card against me, I did 20 damage on turn 6 through throwing trash into it and the odd spell.
You don't know pain until your hydra has been volcano'ed :'(
Rad new hairstyle bro
3:50 u should have picked onyxia kripp, cause another drakonid wont't trigger its battlecry without a dragon in your hand
I drafted it in arena and it stomped hard. I won 10 games and the card itself instantly won me the game
I was hoping a volcano clip with hydra
What does he mean by wild decks in arena?
still remember the first time I got hit by a volcano with this out, my asshole will never be the same again
you knew that's gonna happen don't you! Don't dare to mock shamans with hydra.
This thing should be 8/8 9-drop and damage the enemy hero in the same mechanic
volcano is amazing against this hydra
Lol, all this comment section is filled with troll, sarcasm and kripperinos.
Hydra is a good card, you just happened to get 2 games in which you have multiple low damage cards.
id like to check your necro review
*Ackbarerino Kripperino* where be thee?
I made a huge misplay in Arena with this card, I had a nearly full board and my opponent had no board so I played this card as sort of BM, he played Unleash and I actually ended up losing :/
I like using Hydra then silencing her, so she doesn't have that backstab, at least i did that when i started playing and didn't had any better cards
8:26 Kripp missed volcano lethal
Chrafter K that's meteor
You are god damn right I just watched Amaz's "Holy mother of volcano" shaman video and got confused plus I am stupid :D
Thanks for clarifying it :)
that's meteor in his hand, tho
I'd rather Hydra, only because I lost to a rogue because I got it from firelands, literally lost my whole deck by the next turn and it was my final game for 12 wins, was already winning and instant loss after that. At least Hydra won't fuck me over as hard.
I got volcanoed with the hydra out in arena. Never again.
logged into HS just to get the 3 free packs cause I like the pack opening animation. The deprecation of cards/decks is to much like being a hamster on wheel. No more for me. Still love watching Krip and Wow Hobs HS videos though.
Getting Fel Reaver Aldor'd is pretty bad. Getting your Hydra Aldor'd is game-losing.
I played a bitter tide hydra turn 5 in arena. Instant volcano. Took 24 damage XD
i won 4 games in a row thx to hydra , idk what to feel about this card now (even if its pretty bad in a lot of situations)
see you guys tomorrow
5:05 What, no nogenfogger?
is kripperoni going balderino?
I run bittertide Hydra in my inner fire priest deck.
A guy played double Unleash the hounds against my Hydra..
One turn killed a sucker with volcano + spell damage + lava burst
what is that cardback?
i faced you once in arena...now i watch your video ;P
Anybody know what the next Expansion might be?
RED Null illuminati
Look at how fucking shit that hydra is, against my OP ELEMENTAL COMBO/DRAGON PRIEST DECK.
