How Ultra Hydra plays

Ultra Hydra is S tier over all champions on patch 26.21: #9 of 226 augments and #6 of the 69 prismatic cards. That is the average over every champion; on the right one it is worth more, on the wrong one much less.

It does best on Nocturne, Master Yi and Rengar. 13 of its 15 best champions are fighters.

It is stronger early: S tier as a first pick and A tier by the second pick. Take it when it shows up early.

The card it pairs with best is Ethereal Weapon: if you already have one of the two, the other jumps up your list.
