I have no idea... Maybe this is a new strategy to avoid opening
preparation
by the opponent? If the opponent sees Hydra, he might think 'never heard

killer lines by his opponents!

But I fear Chrilly's brainchild is punishing him for changing names,
everyone expected more than 0,5 out of three....
