"Find me cards equivalent to: Genesis Hydra"

Here are green cards similar to Genesis Hydra (creature, cares about X and/or finding cards in library):

  • Genesis Hydra (original card)
  • Primordial Hydra (Creature — Hydra; enters with X +1/+1 counters, no reveal ability but similar X scaling)
  • Duskwatch Recruiter (permits putting creatures from top of library to hand, close to selective digging)
  • Vizier of the Menagerie (lets you play creatures from top of library; not X, but similar filtering effect)
  • End-Raze Hydra (enters with X counters, can fight creatures; also green/X/hydra synergy)

Reasoning: Very few green creatures both scale with X and dig for nonland permanents. Genesis Hydra is unique, but these have partial overlap in green and with +1/+1 counters or library manipulation.

    Rules

  • A nonland permanent card is an artifact, creature, enchantment, or planeswalker card.
  • Genesis Hydra's first ability will resolve before Genesis Hydra does. Notably, if you put an Aura card onto the battlefield this way, it can't enchant Genesis Hydra.
  • If "the rest" is zero cards, either because X was 0 or because X was 1 and that card was put onto the battlefield, the library is still shuffled.
  • If a card in a player's library has {X} in its mana cost, X is considered to be 0.
  • If you have fewer than X cards in your library, you reveal all of them.
  • If you put an Aura onto the battlefield this way, you choose what it enchants as it enters the battlefield. This doesn't target any permanent or player, but it must be able to enchant that permanent or player. For example, you could put a green Aura onto the battlefield enchanting a creature with hexproof controlled by an opponent, but not one with protection from green.

    Rules

  • Consider only the number of +1/+1 counters on Primordial Hydra when determining if it has trample, not its power and toughness. For example, a Primordial Hydra with six +1/+1 counters on it that's been the target of Titanic Growth (giving it +4/+4) would not have trample.

    Rules

  • If the top card of your library changes while you're casting a spell, playing a land, or activating an ability, you can't look at the new top card until you finish doing so. This means that if you cast the top card of your library, you can't look at the next one until you're done paying for that spell.
  • Normally, Vizier of the Menagerie allows you to cast the top card of your library if it's a creature card, it's your main phase, and the stack is empty. If that creature card has flash, you'll be able to cast it any time you could cast an instant, even on an opponent's turn.
  • The top card of your library isn't in your hand, so you can't cycle it, discard it, or activate any of its activated abilities.
  • Vizier of the Menagerie lets you look at the top card of your library whenever you want (with one restriction—see below), even if you don't have priority. This action doesn't use the stack. Knowing what that card is becomes part of the information you have access to, just like you can look at the cards in your hand.
  • You may spend mana as though it were mana of any type to cast any creature spell, not just creature spells that you cast from the top of your library.
  • You'll still pay all costs for that spell, including additional costs. You may also pay alternative costs such as emerge or that of As Foretold.
