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 13:05 Firrol the Barkhorn is the better Duchess Lilitu 14:55 Varl the Destroyer might be the most underrated Hydra Champ? 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 24:45 Razelvarg 26:00 Graazur Irongut 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
Stop putting champions on their own tier! Plarium will nerf them when content crators do this they almost every time nerf it. Trunda is how she ever was stop caling her out!
But when nogdar was killing the sand devil in 2 turns it was fine, it is bugged and it breaks the whole concept of hydra clash, this week our whole clan got outdmged by one person using trunda on normal, and we are not a pushover clan, we do 20 bil.
@@Olaru-Florin20 bil is pushover when you’re getting into top clan territory. My clan caps its damage between 12-15 bil and we don’t see those teams. Matchmaking is a thing. We usually win too enough that I’ve got multiple champs in really good protection and stoneskin accessories.
@@vladimirduran237 yea but that guys clan did nearly nothing,he did almost all the work, and on normal, we have multiple people hitting 200+ on nightmare and burtal
@@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!
F the saffron man, caring on like a toddler. I do feel nubs is not the most original cc but you put the info out well and i enjoy watching you and with the amout of people coving this game how hard would it be to be original. Your a cc its a job and you do it well, pelirum suck nuts but we all know that any way. Dont respond to the safron man and keep knocking out quality vids like this one and dont listen to the haters and maybe you will have your own lambo one day lol
One day you’ll get something you worked so hard for stolen from beneath you. Remember your comment when that day happens. It’s foul if what Saff said is true..
@@YumekoSSJ Excuse me, what exactly was stolen here? Saffron Man did an award show 4 years ago, and then did another one the following year, but then abandoned the idea of doing it a 3rd time, and then stopped playing raid/making content over a year ago. Now, years later, Plarium are doing an award show with Nub involved, and Saffron is mad about it. Nothing was stolen from him. He stopped doing the award show, and now he's just jealous and salty because someone else is doing it instead of him. If he feels like Raid Awards is *HIS* thing exclusively, then he should've carried on doing it each year.
@@DOKTORPUSZ Einstein’s theory of relativity still gets credited to him decades after he died. No one claimed it as their own and came out with a shitty excuse like "well he’s dead now, and it’s been 70 years since he’s last had any affiliation to HIS own theory, it’s Mine now" no that’s a pathetic and silly argument. You can’t just claim other people’s work and take as your own as time passes. Eventually, you’ll get called out for it. It’s one of the laws of the universe. It also detonates my mind for you people to expect Saff (or anyone for that matter) to be so cool and all Good like it’s butterfly and rainbows about this situation. It’s unrealistic. You should already know how this world operates. Countless times throughout history we’ve had people act the same exact way Saff did (if not worse) if they felt something was took from them and profited by another human who had nothing to do with the work they so hardly put effort in. His "caring on like a toddler" is to be expected. What other emotion did you expect for him to have?? 😂 blows my mind, It actually shows how much lack of empathy you all have. Cmon now, you all know the world we live in. No one in their right mind is going to go about it a non agitated way. It’s unrealistic to expect that. A simple 15 second shoutout would’ve prevented all of this.
@YumekoSSJ you're really trying to compare a community award show for a mobile game, with Einstein's earth-changing scientific discoveries? 😂 Jesus christ, you're delusional. Saffron didn't invent award shows. He had the idea to host one for the Raid community, and he put a lot of work into making it happen. That's all. He didn't discover something, or create a unique concept. Do you think any future award shows in the Raid community should have to be named after him because he happened to do it first?
@@DOKTORPUSZ of course you missed the point. This could be applied to literally anything. I just used that as an example. But obviously you internet wise guys will find anything and everything to miss the point just to bring up pointless impunities. Your smart enough to understand what I meant, don’t patronize me with your childish redirect. If you don’t see the problem with plagiarism, then your the delulu one bud
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.
@@YEBOTRickZ you need a provoke and hex ideally archer or could do mythrala and maulie then shamail and if you can a utility champ like cardiel, lydia sunwookong (block buffs and buff removal) or nekmothaar
@@YEBOTRickZ also remember to prioritise the skills for Gizmak( both forms) including the metamorph or he will never change and you will want him changing frequently to keep the burn up and the pain link up. Unless you want to cnstantly manual your hydra fights
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.
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.
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
Playing for 2 years I only have Lydia out of this list lol Doing NM hydra 300 million, 800 mill total in hydra clash all keys need some better hydra champs badly
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.
Harima is ok for hydra, but should've been on the list at all. You mentioned tons of champs and lots you didnt that are way better in hydra than Harima. I do notice that anyone that doesnt have Harima thinks she does crazy damage and she doesn't.
1:12 A Raid Leaderboards Discord for speedruns and highest Clan Boss damage that anyone can join and submit their personal bests to get on the Boards or lurk and view screenshots of all the World Records from the community? That sounds like a cool place 😉
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.
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'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.
Cool I have 2 out of all these champs. Lydia, which is a non-shard champ and Acrizia. So out of the 20 champs that can be pulled from shards, I got lucky once. hahaha Oh raid.
In list order.. and after 3 years., Lydia is the first champ on the list I actually have.. Then Venus.. Probably take 15 years of FtP to complete the list 🤣
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 understand why you put the faction champs in, but I don't think they should be on the list as they require specific other champs to get all the craziness. Taras by himself yes. But the faction champ would not be on that team without Taras. They should be off and Mithralla should have been on. At least.
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.
My negrigante archer does more damage then my gnut. Crazy. When I pair my ninja with mikage he does over 100mill damage himself. Ninja definitely has a place in hydra even without mikage
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
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)
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.
Raid the scam company they take your money for mercy count like ancients and then they tell you to pull them for a x15 progressive then they make you do the event over after making you lose all that money after pulling one Lego with luck and the mercy you spent on for all these events and oh wow something came up I get nothing and no event or I have to spend more!
i think i'll need a few five years more to get at least first mythic. And i'm quite sure it wont be one of the usefull ones, no one repealed murphy's law and the will of the Gods of random.
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.
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
@isma6049 I just did 1b at hard with 1 yumeko , she not only researched themselves but other champions with similar skills. I use yumeko and nia and work just fine , yumeko reste team and nia reset yumeko and fight goes on that way
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.
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.
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’ve also pulled 2 firrols one in a progressive chance and one on a clan boss reward ancient shard. I felt so blessed. ALSO pulled TRUNDA off a 1 ancient shard from clan boss with no boosts or anything. I’ve only been playing for 3 months
I build a team with: Trunda, Lydia, Emic, Padric, Ma'shalled (but any good nuker is fine) and do 2.8 billions on hard. You could do good stuff with Trundra even without double yumeko...for sure double Yumeko is something absurd
Yeah it's really tough. I have been playing around with it but have only one yumeko and unfortunately I can't get the timing right because she gets devoured or takes too long to kill the heads and doesn't have her abilities back to hit the decapitated heads and weak hitting on force affinity and poison cloud etc. etc.
@@jasonsaulters6027 I use 1 yumeko with nia and emic , emic taunted prevent trundra to be devoured and yumeko reset team for the second cycle of skill, them nia reset yumeko , that way she will have her reset in 2 turns , making emic taunt perma , so everyone goes a3, a2 , a3, forever if nothing wrong happens, rest of team is mikage and Lydia for busters the dmg , arbiter can replace mikage if u don't have her yet
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!!!
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
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.
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.
