I think we can probably safely say that we have a "Locust Swarm, Creature - Insect" card. Seeing as Locust, Swarm, and Insect all appear once, and once only.
Locust Swarm is an green card from mirage remarkable only in that it flies and has creature type swarm. I doubt they'd print a green flyer again and make it that. I suspect the creature type "insect" goes with moth (I realize kabuto moth was a spirit. But there those mothrider samurai have to ride something and I assume they aren't spirits).

Alright, maybe not exactly Locust Swarm, but I'd say something very similar.. 'ravaging locust swarm' or something.
Might not have noticed this, but under & sunder are both parts of the word asunder which the orb shows appearing twice (Card Name and Rules Text referencing itself I would assume.)

As for the Kirin x 10 - the Kirin are likely to be legendary. If they are, there's no reason to assume they would have the word "Kirin" in their names; most Legends don't.
If the word 'Kirin' isn't in the name, then why would it appear 10 times in the Orb? The self-reference to triggered abilities wouldn't contain 'Kirin' either.
and i just checked every word (well ones that matter) in all A/B/U & Arabian Knights....other than what's been listed, that's what i got.

I'm pretty sure the Orb only searches full text. Plow also shows up once. So I have a feeling Plow Under may be reprinted, as well as Sunder.

Ok folks, based on the compiled Orb results (thanx to those who posted), I have begun a rundown of standard rules text to determine various cards in the set... (yes I have no life...well i do, but i'm just an obsessive puzzle-solver...sigh)
there will be several posts here in succession so that others may contribute as they feel the urge... but my summary so far:
10 Creature - Samurai with Bushido
7 Creature - Spirit with Soulshift
4 Spells with Splice onto Arcane
2 Creature - Snake with "snakebite" ability
2 Artifact - Equipment
4 Creature - Moonfolk with Flying and "moonfolk landbounce"
1 Creature with Vigilance
1 Creature with Defender
Possibility of up to 6 Creature - Demon Spirit with upkeep triggers
Possibility of up to 4 tutor spells
These are by far NON-CONCLUSIVE and please read the entire posts.
Any word that appears multiple times in a given ability is indicated by (x2)(x3) etc... I think the rest is pretty clear.
Items are entered as
WORD #cards appearing on/#times in orb - #uses of WORD remaining

I think the word kirin appearing ten times could have to do with like the Invasion dragons, where they have attendants with them. Or maybe some kind of major spells or enchantments, more shrines perhaps? Whatever the case, it is intriguing me every second just the thought of it.
Quote from Aaron Forsythe on Guildpact: Twenty Questions »
When Guildpact was handed over from design, it also had seven gold rares per guild,... and that the seventh gold rare in each guild was less important to the set than the Nephilim. So each guild is down a rare in this set.
Gruul, Izzet and Orzhov. Officially screwed by WOTC.
I checked all revised cards yesterday (don't know why), but drain was zero. And it still is.
Why didn't it hit 1 with you?
And on another note... i just woke up, and people are still double posting and even say they are to lazy to read a single compiled list...:mad2:
Ooops
sorry the hit wasn't on Drain it was on Bond
Bond - 1
heh

Kirin's could also have Kirin in their name and text box. It's been done more.

Thanks @ R&Doom at "Ye Olde Sig and Avatar Shoppe" for the banner.
The areas between the cities give them room for green and red creatures without having to print something like "Central Park Druid" or "Backyard Squirrel" or something.
Strike could be in card name, like Hundred-Talon Strike, or it could be First Strike. The instance of double could also just be a damage doubler or something.

No Carebear tribal deck for me this time.
Maybe in the next set (fingers crossed).
If the word 'Kirin' isn't in the name, then why would it appear 10 times in the Orb? The self-reference to triggered abilities wouldn't contain 'Kirin' either.

one five is for the card's names
and another five is for the creature type(probably "kirin spirit")
Dont forget about "lose life".

1 8/8 creature
the number 10 appears 2 times, but in no creatures...
Legendary appears 44 times
Kirin appears 10 times, maybe 1 in name and 1 in textbox, that gives 5 cards.
