"Find me cards equivalent to: Savageborn Hydra"

Equivalent cards in Gruul (green/red) with similar abilities:
1. Savageborn Hydra

  • Reference card; double strike, enters with X counters, can add more.
    2. Primordial Hydra
  • Grows with +1/+1 counters, enters with X counters, but no double strike or Gruul color identity.
    3. Kalonian Hydra
  • Enters with counters, doubles counters on attack, mono-green.
    4. Heroes' Bane
  • Enters with X counters, can double its counters for {2}{G}{G}, mono-green.

Closest Gruul equivalent:

  • Zada, Hedron Grinder and Rosheen Meanderer are red/green hydras but don’t share the double strike or “add a +1/+1 counter” activated ability.

Summary: No other Gruul hydra does exactly what Savageborn Hydra does, but Heroes' Bane and Primordial Hydra are closest in function (counters-based growth), though they are mono-green. Color identity for Gruul and the specific combination of abilities is unique to Savageborn Hydra.

    Double Trample

    Rules

  • To double the number of +1/+1 counters on a creature, determine how many +1/+1 counters are on the creature and put that many more on it. Effects that interact with counters (such as the one created by Corpsejack Menace's ability) may change the number of counters ultimately put on the creature.

    Double

    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

  • A “cost that contains {X}” may be a spell’s total cost, an activated ability’s cost, a suspend cost, or a cost you’re asked to pay as part of the resolution of a spell or ability (such as Condescend). A spell’s total cost includes either its mana cost (printed in the upper right corner) or its alternative cost (such as flashback), as well as any additional costs (such as kicker). If it’s something you can spend mana on, it’s a cost. If that cost includes the {X} symbol in it, you can spend mana generated by Rosheen on that cost.
  • You can spend mana generated by Rosheen on a cost that includes {X} even if you’ve chosen an X of 0, or if the card specifies that you can spend only colored mana on X. (You’ll have to spend Rosheen’s mana on a different part of that cost, of course.)
  • You can spend mana generated by Rosheen on any part of a cost that contains {X}. You’re not limited to spending it only on the {X} part.
  • You don’t have to spend all four mana on the same cost.

    Rules

  • Any creature you control that couldn't be targeted by the original spell (due to shroud, protection abilities, targeting restrictions, or any other reason) is just ignored by Zada's ability.
  • If the spell that's copied has an X whose value was determined as it was cast (like Rolling Thunder does), the copies have the same value of X.
  • If the spell that's copied is modal (that is, it says "Choose one —" or the like), the copies will have the same mode. You can't choose a different one.
  • If you cast an instant or sorcery spell that has multiple targets, but it's targeting only Zada with all of them, Zada's ability will trigger. The copies will similarly each be targeting only one of your other creatures. You can't change any of the copy's targets to other creatures.
  • The controller of a copy can't choose to pay any alternative or additional costs for the copy. However, effects based on any alternative or additional costs that were paid for the original spell are copied as though those same costs were paid for the copy.
  • The copies that the ability creates are created on the stack, so they're not cast. Abilities that trigger when a player casts a spell (like Zada's ability itself) won't trigger.
  • You control all the copies. You choose the order the copies are put onto the stack. The original spell will be on the stack beneath those copies and will resolve last.
  • Zada's ability triggers whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets only Zada and no other object or player.

    Whenever you cast an instant or sorcery spell that targets only Zada, copy that spell for each other creature you control that the spell could target. Each copy targets a different one of those creatures.
