Hydra was a group focused on PvP[2], founded by Redroga, Guacamold and iSudo in mid July 2020. The name choice was a coincidence and completely unrelated to the similarly named HydraBases by iSlime. The main goal of the group was to become the one group that is "in everything" (hence the name choice[3]). After falling to internal drama after a few months of activity, former members Camatar, Redroga and Frank157 brought it back in January 2021, and it lasted all the way until September.
History
Old Hydra
In its first lifespan, Hydra was very active at spawn with the participation of Redroga, CrypticLoki, Warvan, VezYn4ik, Frank157, 3pound and occasionally iSudo. Among their first enemies were Aires2, Neroga and Nicketic.
Hydra began declining when GrandOlive, a member of the Crusaders, decided to inside Hydra for unknown reasons. Opticep (leader of the Crusaders) eventually tipped iSudo off on the subject and this sparked a fight between the two groups. GCC ended up into the mess when their leader, LinusTouchTips, tried to aid Crusaders in insiding Hydra. Various clashes happened between the two groups[4], which Hydra ended up winning on the field because, unlike their opponents, their main focus was PvP and could therefore field an impressive amount of fighters.
The group died when school came back into session and everyone was busy, furthermore iSudo deleted the discord and had enough of running a group.
New Hydra
Camatar, Redroga and Frank157 breathed new life in the group in early 2021. Through January and February, Hydra fought repeatedly against Blackfyre (a group Camatar, 3pound and Redroga were all former members of). Most of the clashes were won by Hydra, once again due to a significant difference in the number of PvPers both could field: on Blackfyre's side, it mostly was just Warvan, _Rydal and GamingDerp. Hydra's victory was secured when Blackfyre eventually disbanded due to infighting.
Hydra later merged with Synister, a group mainly focused on other anarchy servers whose leader, TwinOus, had often helped Hydra expand into other servers. Together with him, he brought a number of skilled PvPers. Together they fought Eclipse, a 0b0t group, nuking their discord and forcing their leaders to quit. The same thing soon happened to Team GcGubobo.
On the 26th of February, Camatar was token logged by running an old Aurora client version; the discord was however spared from being nuked due to his swift intervention.
In late June, a group of former Hydra members split off and created a group named Xenon, led by xXFireside, who was kicked out after a 2-1 vote between Redroga, Camatar, and TwinOus.
There was many great battles between Hydra and Xenon. Practically every day there was Hydra goons such as, Neroga, Nicketic, A2E2 and Redroga fighting Xenon PvPers such as xXFireside, Soloditto, ipgrabba and Pexku. The majority of the battles ended with a Hydra win due to Xenon having less skilled PvPers.
In early August Camatar had made a alternative discord account and began to inside Xenon. Once getting discord administrative permission, he nuked the group's discord and with help, A bunch of Hydra goons nuked all the dupe stashes they had stow away in the discord. The group had wiped the group from 9b9t. Here's a video of the griefs and nukes[5].
The group was disbanded in September 2021, after Camatar lost interest and the group slowly died out. Hydra will return.
