Hellhades and YST did a video about the Best champions for
Hydra and we will cover them in more detail below. As with
every champion you can find their full guides by clicking the
hyperlinks on their name.
Team Foundations:
Of course, there are Champions who stand out from the crowd
and can carry you, but ultimately, you still need to be able to
cover all of the basics required to face Hydra.
Speed Control – Some of the Hydra Heads are rather fast, and
you always want to be able to keep good pace when fighting
them, to rotate around to your abilities faster, maintaining high
uptime of your debuffs and ultimately dealing more damage –
you can bring both Increase SPD
(https://hellhades.com/increase-speed-buff-raid-shadow-
legends/) and Decrease SPD (https://hellhades.com/decrease-
speed-debuff-raid-shadow-legends/) to gain more turns against
the Hydra.
Geomancer (https://hellhades.com/champions/geomancer/) is
a God in most Dungeon runs however he shines in Hydra due to
his his success as a damage dealer. His remarkable passive
ability is the key to high amounts of damage. Geomancer’s
(https://hellhades.com/champions/geomancer/) passive
reduces the damage received by all allies by 15% and redirects
that damage to each enemy afflicted with an [HP Burn
(https://hellhades.com/hp-burn-debuff-raid-shadow-legends/)]
debuff caused by Geomancer
(https://hellhades.com/champions/geomancer/). Moreover,
when Geomancer
(https://hellhades.com/champions/geomancer/)himself is
attacked, 30% of the damage is deflected back at the assailant.
Additionally, there’s a 30% chance that the deflected damage
will be accompanied by an extra amount equal to 3% of the
target’s maximum HP. This skill is particularly strong when the
Head of Wrath is around. The big slams from Wrath help to add
a lot of damage. The powerful strikes from Wrath contribute
significantly to the overall damage output. Geomancer’s
(https://hellhades.com/champions/geomancer/) A3 skill, which
triggers the passive, not only applies [HP Burn
(https://hellhades.com/hp-burn-debuff-raid-shadow-legends/)]
and [Weaken (https://hellhades.com/weaken-debuff-raid-
shadow-legends/)] debuffs but also excels at handling Poison
Clouds from the Head of Blight due to its “place” mechanism as
opposed to an “attack” method. We could go on but you already
know he is a beast! If you want to read more than check out

synergy-spotlight-geomancer/)
Krisk the Ageless (https://hellhades.com/champions/krisk-the-
ageless/) is an absolute beast in the game but he brings
everything that you need: [AOE Provoke
(https://hellhades.com/provoke-raid-shadow-legends/)] [Ally
Protection (https://hellhades.com/ally-protection-champions/)]
[Gigantic Shields (https://hellhades.com/shield-buff-raid-
shadow-legends/)] [Increase Speed
(https://hellhades.com/increase-speed-buff-raid-shadow-
legends/)] [Increase DEF (https://hellhades.com/increase-
defence-raid-shadow-legends/)] [Decrease Speed
(https://hellhades.com/decrease-speed-debuff-raid-shadow-
legends/)] [Decrease ATK (https://hellhades.com/decrease-
attack-debuff-raid-shadow-legends/)] [Decrease DEF
(https://hellhades.com/decrease-defence-champions-raid-
shadow-legends/)] [Increase Buff Duration
(https://hellhades.com/increase-buff-duration-raid-shadow-
legends/)] [Self-Healing (https://hellhades.com/continuous-
heal-raid-shadow-legends/)]. I mean just wow look at that list!
Everything you need to slay the Hydra Heads! Krisk
(https://hellhades.com/champions/krisk-the-ageless/) has
established himself as a reliable champion, frequently seen in
numerous world record submissions, including the current
record. He is a staple in almost all end-game Hydra teams,
particularly on the higher difficulty levels. But he is really good
because he can Provoke the Head of Decay! Overall look at the
buffs and debuffs he has! Get yours built now! Check out Krisk’s
full guide (https://hellhades.com/champions/krisk-the-
ageless/).
Trunda Giltmallet is BROKEN for Hydra and I mean BROKEN! If
you saw Skratche’s Hydra run then you know why she is on the
list! She NUKES the Hydra. To make her do the bonkers amount
of damage you need to kill a head then a2 and just watch the
numbers fly into the millions! There is an issue with her code on
her a2 that makes her produce damage in the millions. If you
have her and didn’t know her potential then let me tell you put
her in your team and you’ll see a massive damage boost but
only against a dead head remember that is a key part!
Inquisitor Shamael
(https://hellhades.com/champions/inquisitor-shamael/)
possesses a unique kit that allows for complete control and
lockdown of the Head of Torment in Hydra battles. With
Inquisitor Shamael
(https://hellhades.com/champions/inquisitor-shamael/) on your
team, there’s no need to worry about champions being under the
[Perfect Veil (https://hellhades.com/veil-perfect-veil-buff-
champions-raid-shadow-legends/)] effect while attacking the
head, and you become immune to debuffs from its A1 attack.
He can be built as a full damage dealer or be given more utility,
and a toxic set is an excellent option, especially considering the
head can be poisoned. Additionally, the taunting set works
wonders, providing him with extra utility to [provoke
(https://hellhades.com/provoke-raid-shadow-legends/)] the
Head of Decay and accumulate hits and damage against the
Head of Torment. Furthermore, he performs an additional attack
with his A1 every time an enemy places a debuff on an ally,
making him valuable in handling the other heads present,
although his damage output may not be as significant.
Considering that his passive ability only boosts the turn meter
of the leader, selecting the right champion pairing becomes
crucial for optimal performance. For more info click this
