Hydra's always been very controversial. Against underleveled players, I would say it's even more dangerous than Orkans, since at least you can run from Orkans.

As a relatively underleveled player, I can say that I fear Hydras and Spirals more than I fear Shocktrains and Orkans.

So in a proper league, Hydras are probably only a bit strong for the risk they give (which is almost none), but lower down, they feel downright horrible to play against. And it doesn't help that losing a bot to Hydras feels like you're getting cheated
