Are they as good I as think they are? I simply love them. + Lots to creatures. All sorts of other effects, lots of colors to play AND it allows my precious creatures to survive most removal. Versatility is the key here. 3 effects for a {G} cost is great. (Spider Umbra)
It's like the best effects of equipment, pump spells, and combat effecting instants/enchantments; all rolled into a convenient, cost efficient 3 color package.
Brainstorming a Green/White Umbra based deck as well. Will see how that goes.
These auras were, I believe, hilariously overlooked until bogle became a thing. Now when I read them, I can't remember where the hell my head was when I read them the first time. Good stuff is good.
something I was wondering.. if you have two totem armours on a creature.
and it gets destroyed
do both get destroyed.. or just one?
The oracle text says just one is sufficient. (I can understand your confusion though, it is a mandatory effect, and it reads like all of them would be.)

If you have multiple Umbras on a card and the card would be destroyed, you choose which one umbra is destroyed. IE, if I have Spider Umbra & Bear Umbra on my Elf, and someone casts damnation. I get to choose which Umbra dies.
Even outside the Hexproof Boggle deck I think the Hyena Umbra is the best out of the bunch and could even be playable in other voltron style creature decks.
I agree with you on the Hyena Umbra, first strike is incredibly valuable. Also if people try to kill your creatures you are guaranteed, mana-advantage (is that a thing?).
However white decks are running Path to exile which will seriously mess you up, by going 2+ for 1 card. There are other such cards but Path would be the most prominent.
