I really hope to be proven wrong in this, but after playing with and against this item quite a bit i feel it's nothing but a gimmick and it has no place in competitive play.

Not to say that this is bad, it's not, but when it comes to yielding results, for every champion who might benefit from this i've found that you'll always be better off filling the item slot with something more basic, such as a harder-hitting damage-dealing item, a defensive item, or an offensive item with some defensive stat; Put it simply, a champion who hits harder and/or hits as hard but is harder to kill will end up accomplishing more than someone with the Hydra and it's effect.
