i would search for nine-tails, not eight-and-a-half-tails, we already have that one. Also basic words like "search", "basic", "land", "lands", "cards", "hand", "draw", "card", "discard", "discards", "top", "graveyard", "remove", etcetera.

"The Orb of Insight is a cool web goody that previews the contents of an upcoming Magic set, one search term at a time. For each single search term you enter, the Orb tells you how many times that term appears in the text of the cards of that set. The Orb has been used for Torment, for Onslaught, for Scourge, for Fifth Dawn and for Unhinged."
It's not the basic words that give substantial info about the set. Excepting 'hand', I agree that is an important one, considering the rumors.
Of course it is. Although I agree a specific name grants more information they're as good as "samurai", "akki", "blood" and "baku" to name just a few of your list... Also, I think you can only search for single words. So you'ld have to piece Kodama of the East Tree together.
Also abilities like flying, first strike, double strike etc. are interesting.
With all the other rumors I've been seeing, Im suprised no one has mentioned trying "Red Lotus" or just "Lotus"
I personally don't think its gonna be there, but its still something to try.

It's combo. Turn 4/5, someone loses.
Best Card Ever!! Because who wouldn't want to be both?!? :spirit:
Knight? White knight reprint, if any, will be samurai, with bushido instead of first strike.
Either way, imma look for as many as i can find

Quote from dragyn_mage »
I think assaulting another player should have a range of penalties. (A light slap is a game loss, a kick in the nuts is a DQ, ghetto-stomping someone is a Ban for Life.) There could be article all about it, like "when to mulligan"
ghost(for Takeno and Konda's ghostly legions)
zombie(they ARE in Kamigawa. The rats have necromancers that reanimate people)
A reanimated creature doesn't equate to a zombie.
The first things I'm going to look for are storyline characters: Sharp-Ear, Silver-Foot, Michiko's Friend (I forget her name), etc. ... and flip, cause I love the flip cards
Edit: Why do you have ectoplasmic and barrier on that list? They seem kind of random to me... especially ecotplasmic
Mana costs are a given, such as :WU, UB, BR, RG, GW, WB, etc for sourcing any multicolored cards. :tongue2:
Story based legends would be a good start too, as many of us seem to agree that we'll see at least one or two from the books in this final chapter. :grin2:
The hints given in promo's, words like: 'Will', 'Wisdom' and for the fun of it 'Epic' although I doubt the latter. Pretty much what ever Hunter said in his first post, Keywords and anything remotely kamigawa sounding would be good.
Are we going to set up a different thread for the findings this time around? Perhaps we can convince Hunter to start the number crunching thread with only a single card this rumor season, and fill in the blanks with the Orb's assistance. :smile3:

I think I have to pass on this one. Besides having other things on my mind, I think there's not enough time left to make it worthwhile. By this time, other people will become interested and fill in the blanks. Also, the complete spoiler will take precedence. Besides, I don't 'own' the number crunch-thread. If somebody is interested, feel free to open one. Just like you shouldn't rely on one guy for providing 'real rumors' (which is a contradictio in terminis, by the way) you shouldn't rely on one guy to do the number crunching. This is a community, after all.
