I have Tatura, you don't see him used much, but that doggo is a beast! He carries me everywhere, block debuffs, veil team while shielding self then freezing enemies who attack him, hits hard, lives harder, and the decrease acc on his a1 is awesome, too! Looks amazing when he gets lit on fire and / or frozen with his wings spread, and blue flames over your whole team! He truly is the bestest boy!

Maulie quickly became one of my fave provokers the more I user her. Adding resistance to make her a mischief tank by having a unique reflect damage buff allows her to boost your turn meter even more.

New subscriber here and have already noticed that on this channel we get both huge quality and quantity of videos! Love it! 🔥❤️

Hey ash just wanna say that you and hell are the best raid creators

Here’s a 1 turn cooldown for truaths passive and it cannot cool down more than 1 turn per proc. Ex. 100% to 60% wouldn’t let him use his heal again next turn, it would be at 2. 4 turn, 1 cools down from taking dmg and the other 1 from his turn he gets. At best it’s a 3 turn heal. Still good, not nearly what you’re thinking tho.

I’d love to see a video of non-legendaries for hydra. I rarely even attempt to fight it even on normal because I don’t have these types of champs. I’d love to hear your recommendations on rares and epics that have utility against it for early and mid-game.

Thank you for all your videos. I just started playing the game a month ago. F2P is hard , and a heavy grind to get what you need. But I wish you would do videos on the forge and Altar. And how you enchant your Artifacts. I have yet to figure that one out. I would appreciate that also. Love what you do, keep it up.

When Ash uploads, I drop eveything and watch.

I love the stories you tell as you go over stats skills and gear. It a bit like a commentary going down the back straight of a race with all contenders running neck and neck. You bring such excitement and joy into the world just through your enthusiasm. Bless you Ash..

I have Truath. Run him in a couple different comps. I built him moderately fast, super tanky. I put all the op Frenzy pieces I had on him. He cycles through his abilities really quickly from all the extra turn meter he gets. Animus is a 60% heal then balance when booked btw. It's nutty, especially after masteries.

There's 2 heads I have the most problems with. But mostly the head of Mischief. They say that the heads are random to respond once decapitated. But I swear, Mischief doesn't. Every time it respawns. EVERY FREAKING TIME! and when he doesn't, he replaces the next head. And when it's time to have a champ to be swallowed. It's always that evil head. EVERY FREAKING TIME XD I have some luck in this game. But the bad luck that does happen to me is legendary.

Ash, Truath is awesome as a high resist mischief tank in hydra, keeps your team alive and has unique buffs for himself on a2, also build him in frenzy gear for great synergy with his passive.

Tbh a lot of champs are good in hydra especially on normal and hard (basically everything works on normal). Mother Cybele, Raglin, Deliana, Nari, Deacon. Also, a lot of content creators ignore pure damage dealers that aren't max hp based but they work perfectly fine for the first 2 difficulties. I do hard hydra with taras and georgid and do between 50-100m damage, depending on the rotation.

Inquisitor Shamael is straight up a Vampire hunter. So cool.

Hey ash, just to let you know-I just 60ed Truath today and he is INSANE!! Totally would love to see you mess around with him. Love the content bro, keep it up! :)

Mithrala will be mine next week 99/100 So at the moment getting resources stacked so I can get her to 6* quick as possible

Gotta love Harrier provoking Ash 😅

Ultimate death knight is amazing in hydra. Especially when that annoying head tries to steal all your buffs. High resist stacked with HP and defence. He’s a god.

Men!!! You forgetting about Soulless as a provoker and damage dealer. I did aspect that of you. Men!

I don't have the roster to do anything but Normal Hydra. But certainly worth doing. I use Gnarlhorn as my Mischief Tank. I built him out right before I pulled Baerdal. I don't have any of the champions mentioned in this video, except Master Butcher. =p

I'd also add some folks who work great in a provoke set like Khoronar, Ukko, & Nekmo. Folks with aoe a1s and some other hydra utility. I run my nekmo in a provoke set

Love hydra it’s my favorite content in the game

I like running Kantra with Riho. Riho can help keep plenty of debuffs on the head of Decay, especially if you have a debuff extender on the squad. Riho also brings a cleanse and healing.

Now we need a video of Rare and Epic Hydra Champions, since this one is not a newbie friendly video... your videos got me playing Raid, now take responsibility :D

I use skull lord and he is a blast in bolster set. also aoe decrease atk is good too, and he can easily withstand any attack for a long time . what a tank and a beast! well built, it can also solo scarab king and practically rip him off of his max hp in no time. I ❤ this guy!

Hey brah you forgot about Krisk!!! He gots a provoke and soooo much more.. top of the list you .just made... Got Krisk way early and that's my boy!!! Him and Ursuga early... That combo rocks!!

Pulled Truath when he had the x10 getting pts for Michinaki. I have a Marichka, so he hasn't gotten any focus beyond lvling to 50 so far. I'll try him on team 2 or 3 sometime, after I can book him and up gems for masteries

Huh, had zero clue Warchief had a 3 turn provoke, had him for ages and never even thought about throwing at hydra. Bet he's wearing 3 star daze gear or something.

Ash man, if I had these champions, you're speaking about I wouldn't be afraid of running Hydra either. You're running Promo Code on a separate channel and then are wondering if you should run it together with other games' promo codes? You’re going to run out of hours in the day for your boy brother for working so much… To add to your laundry list, maybe you should start running F2P, Mid-game and End-Game on separate channels. I'm more of a (not that I’m good at all but I’m finally getting an understanding, sort of, but still need serious help now) mid-game to late-game player and I don’t have most of these champs you mentioned. Yea on Rector, Dutches, Bivald (yet to gear him but booked and 6 starred) and of course I recall you saying a while ago about Butcher so I have him at 50 and that's it from your list. I have shit-loads of other champs that still need to be geared correctly but I just get nervous now on doing it right. But Hydra is very intimidating to me and my 3on3 arena is Silver 1 and now I'm getting pummeled. I'm still barely hanging on to gold 5 in arena. But I'm getting up against a lot of resistant players. My defense team is not happy... But you and Hates have been making the difference for me, so kudos to you guys! Thanks man! Peace...

I am returning player (after over 2 years break) so Hydra team is something I still need to work on so this is very helpful video even though almost all your options are legendary champion that I do not have (except of Kantra and Duchess). Just a small note, I really hate mentioning cooldown of the a2 or a3 as for average f2p player booking a champion is really long run (those legendary books are very hard to get)

Great video, Ash! You missed Greybeard and Sentinel for provoking Rares. Both have very high percentage to land on their A1s.

Lol what a great troll 3:30

Bivald was my first fusion I successfully finished, and was my go-to tank for a lonnnng time. Just a great champ, and soooo useful for Hydra. Love him. So worth.

Duuude you finally got Noct!! Tho now I need to know how to use Ultan of the Shell. 😂

I'm using Skull-Lord ......just recently did first attempt at doing brutal hydra and with skull lord fast enough he locks down head of decay even on brutal and doesn't need backup provoke while also countering head of wrath with decrease atk and mischief tanking .... Don't underestimate him ppl He is actually a monster first attempt with him on brutal was 4m short of 1 key

any recommended sets for Maulie ? or anything goes just get high ACC ? 🙂 she was my second lego pull pretty early in the game, and u know u don't even REALLY need a reviver that early because it's easy, then i got Scyl and she brings more to the table in more areas, so i built her and Maulie was forgotten, still lvl 50 😅

Well the only one of these I have is Truath. I just got him and haven't 6 starred him yet but will for the fusion. Thanks for the hydra info though. I do minimal damage every time I try.

Seeker also does well for the provoke, easier to get than legos probably.. but also if he's number 2 in the lineup if using an aura, will put up increase def by 60% on the whole team. No cooldown on the provoke. & the cleanse for the fear, nobody does netter than shamael. Boosted my overall damage do much.

RARE Barbarian SENTINEL must've been a special mention by me, lol. Good provoker when head of decay is a non-spirit affinity.

Comment #2, lol. Skull lord is fantastic for hydra. I use him on my hard team. Shamrock is also a solid hydra champ (better than most give credit). Speaking of champs that have nothing to do with the video... uggo is a must build for hydra. I have 5 built. 3 on the main 2 on the alt. All for hydra. Leech, heal/mini cleanse on the A3.. aoe defense down and block buffs on A2

im curious on how you build Maulie and Bivald for Hydra. i have both at 50 and they just got higher on my list of priority.

I'm struggling with normal clan boss on easy let alone hydra. I'd appreciate some guide/advice for champs/teams to look for. Also who do I book out first Decon or Katun both at 40. Don't have enough food. As always thanks for the content Ash

Dude! I hadn't noticed Maulie's passive. She's going on my second key team immediately!

You were super-hype on that intro. Way better than Chosen's new camera.

skull lord was my first legendary i pulled. he was a great help on the come up for sure

Hey Ash. Thanks a lot for the video. After you mentioned the provoke for two turn champs, I started looking on my list for similar champs. And the one champ I found was Jizoh on his A3. Granite, it is a 4turn CD when book, still… it’s not a bad option right? Any chance of doing a guide on him?

Just wanna thank you ash for your dedication and time. I also love that you try to explain to people the GOTCHA aspect of this game and people have to watch getting pulled into it. Whether people wants to admit it or not this game can definitely become an addiction. Thanks ash! You’ve helped me tremendously with raid.

This is a great video Ash but if it’s not too much trouble, do you mind doing a in-depth hydra video? Like explain how you would set up your team?

Ash could we have a "mid game builds"? I'm struggling getting my Level 50 account to Level 13 dungeons. Thanks for all you do!

Bivald is awesome, but leach with head of decay destorying my max hp sucks. They also buff head of decay too. Able to destroy 75% of you hp now. You miss a great rare provoker in Sentinel. I don't have one built, but he looks good.

I went for the Tatura fusion when it was around. He's in my CB team and my IT team. He's a beast (no pun intended) though I do think he's supposed to be a lion. That 3 turn block debuffs and def up is incredible. And holy hell he hits like a truck.

All imma say, kimi is a GOD. U need way less resistance, get way more turns, need less acc. Kimi carries me so hard

I like inquisitor in reflex too. He can do insane damage to an exposed neck. Add hex, he can be bonkers. Not top tier, but really nice

always a good video Ash... I was going thru all faction index and i found lord shazar's kit and i thought why would anyone use this champ in the high level arena? are his bombs enough to kill opponents on the second turn?

Good day Sir, I just picked a random video to say Ty and to say I have been going back through watched content to check I liked them with the thumbs up. I'm what ya might call disabled. So I have lots of free time. KZfaq in one device and RSL on the other. I also have a playlist for each account (3). I add each champs video to the list for each account. So I can easily look the up and weigh benefits ect lots more to say but that it for now. Ty, Markavelli, MarkGyver, Markavillian and Sin of Tzu cheerz

7:40 me at a music festival

Thank you, Ash! I'll look into Bivald.

my favorite provoker is actually not even a provoker => Nekmo Thaar in provoke set. This speed freak gets so many turns, its bound to land when you need it. Especially on this rotation, paired with Shamael, Nekmo just goes nuts LOL

Nekmo Thaar, Supreme Galek, and Pythion make Hydra much easier for me. Honorable mention is Norog, due to his damage reduction and block buffs, and Shemnath for clearing buffs from Hydra and extra damage.

Just want to throw my favourite in the mix. Skytouched shaman. Big heals, revive on death, block debuffs, and a cleanse?

Thanks for the insight! Going to try to use Tatura Rimehide, did't think of using him.

Yo @Ash I use Skull Lord, recently got him so if you could do a build video that would be awesome!

Great tips, great video edit highlighting the heads and *making that graphic pointing out the heads* finally have a decent provoker ranked up but still working my way up in Hyrda, can 1K UMN Demon lord but not ready to push higher hyrda

This is my fave RAID video I have seen this year. Many thanks

Hey Ash, can you make a video about relic keeper and how to build him🙏🏽

Could you do a guide on mag ar please I built him and he does crappy damage

thankyou i needed this video ash i just buily my cb team 2, 1, 1 now im moving towards hydra first team deciding to watch and then ill post my composition :)

I am struggling a lot with hydra. Thanks for the videos. If there will ever be a legendary pack with you in it I will pay for the first time in RAID.

Have Truath built yeah.. the amount of healing is crazy.. let me know if you want me to test something for you. Great video as always!

truath was actually my first leggo i pulled, it was from an ancient shard

As a returning player who felt like I had a pretty good account when I stopped playing the game granted I was gone for almost two years but I feel like almost all the old champs that used to be god tier are so outclassed by the new ones and not having really any of the new champions is proving to be difficult lol The power creep is so real ! Lol

I love truath! I've had him maybe a month and he's on every team at the moment. Keep in mind I'm still pretty new to the game. Your videos have helped me soooo much, I do appreciate you bro!

Ash! Can you please look at the void Lego Tramaria. She seems really good in Hydra and Arena, but nobody, and I mean nobody, has done a review on her.

Truath is a BEAST!!! I love him in Hydra and anywhere I'm struggling to survive.

I got three Kantra’s when she was considered mehhh. But now she has some really good use. Would you think it is worth building 3 kantra (no books, as 3 will drain my liabrary to much) for 3 hydra teams?

I just got truath from the recent 10x and considering building up as healer and maybe mischief tank with the extra self buffs.

Skulllord was my first legendary and still is one of my favs in Hydra. One of my staples if i try climbing higher difficulitys in hydra

Just pulled Truath when trying for valk, was bummed at first but it seems he'll be a good addition to my hydra team which is still at its early stages. just need to farm guardian gear for his build.

I use Skull Lord. He is also a fantastic mischief tank. He basically neutralizes 2 heads completely.

Truth just sits in my vault. I might have to take him out of the vault !

I don't have any of those people can you do it in rares

I was lucky enough to get Supreme Galek. Him in a Reflex set singlehandedly pushed my damage from 70-80 mill to 210 mill on hard last rotation. Might have had only a lucky run though, can't say it yet.

Hey Ash thanks for the solid content brother! You ever try Maulie in Frenzy gear? Talk about TM boosting 😮

would like it more if there was indication about stats , mastery, gears?

Hey Ash can you do a vid on Hydra champs for Mischief tanking and Block Buffs?

I have Truath at 50 on my F2P. In a slower stoneskin build. Its a solid champ, but until i get it to 60 its not quite hydra ready

Hey Ash not sure if you’ll see this but you should check out Sigmund as your provoker. I prefer him over my Bivald but the feel very similar.

Ash, I have Truath. I don't use her, baecause I'm not sure how to build her. I'm grateful for each suggestion... ;-)

Belanor has Perfect Veil for 2 turns on 3 turn cooldown. It's self cast tho.

seeker with fearsome presence and or provoke set. good f2p option.

I use Visix in a provoke set. Void, provoke, AoE decrease speed. Don’t sleep on her!

I really have to admit, I have yet to try hydra. I don't understand it and don't have any of those champions. I'm too chicken to even try hydra.

Ha, Ash sleeping on Broodlord again. Love your channel, man.

But most champs only have a one round provoke debuff. Is speed the key to get them provoked all the time?

I have truath in a frenzy set the heals are a constant

I though having Warchief was a bad pull. Until I saw his permanent simplistic provoking and damage reflect stuff / buff stealer. Now my Master butcher can retire and let Warchief take over.

Yo Ash, have you ever given a shout out to your editor? He's beast, he's a monster of an editor. 🔥

Bro you need to make some hydra videops for players who doesn't want to pay to get all this champions :)

Can you do one of these videos for rares and epics since most of us don't have these champions??

Downside to bivald is his A1 provoke is not super consistent. Husk usually provokes more consistently with the chance to provoke on each hit. Main provoker, imo, should have a solid A1 provoke.
