This card would benefit a ramp deck that aims to generate a lot of mana quickly, allowing you to potentially put a powerful nonland permanent onto the battlefield for a discounted cost. While Genesis Hydra can be a strong inclusion in such a deck, some may argue that cards like Primeval Titan or Tooth and Nail offer more immediate and impactful effects. However, Genesis Hydra can still be a versatile and fun addition to decks looking for a mix of ramp and creature value.
