I'd like to add to that, neither is Death cloud, Plow under or City of Ass for that matter, We haven't seen anything in the way of rares reprinted in years recent in the rare spot, I find it hard to believe we'll be seeing a reprint of any sort in Saviors.
Great work on the lists there guys, we're whittling down the list of words left to discover, the most difficult to find are the names of the unknown legends... here's hoping we'll get a little help on these soon
most likely the L that comes up refers to an artist's inital .... we have 6 hits for pool .... so we an have up to 6 lands ... but some are probably cards that add mana to your pool like sustainers and desperite rituals ... so i would guess in the range of 3 to 5 lands
we do have 15 hits for artifacts but i'm sure there are creatures and spells that deal with them
No, I think he's right. There are way too may of W, U, B, R, G. I've been trying to figure out who it could be up in the 30s. I mean that'd be likfe every creature having an activated ability with a C cost. So L = 4, implies probably 4 lands. Z=1 implies 1 gold. A is not particularly for artifacts. (there could be an artist that gets rid of a couple of these but i think they've found 161 of the 165 artists)

Bets on Iname?
Possibly "Iname, Life's Fire"?
Sorry, but States and other tournaments' results from back them prove otherwise. The most popular deck was UW Control, with Broodstar affinity following closely. Take a look at WotC's Tournament Center.
States was before Broken Frog was made. Originated directly following states, it annihilated almost everything in the metagame. Broodstar Affinity was by all means popular, but by no means broken (or even good, for that matter).
No updates on the legend names or any of their spells or equipment?
I also find it very intiresting that the word seven appears 7 times...what could that mean?

**EDIT** Lousy work. This looked way better when I started writing it hours ago. **EDIT**
I was pretty excited when I saw that zubera came up. Then I looked at my Ember-Fist Zubera, and the word 'zubera' appears 4 times on the card. Well, with only 7 times total in the new set, that means the new Zubera can't have abilities like the originals And unless there are 3 or fewer, they can't even have 'Zubera' in their name and creature type. That said, I'd rather have a couple good additions to the tribe than a bunch of lousy ones...
I'm trying to think of ways that all 7 instances could be on one card.
There obviosuly isn't another cycle, but there are no WUBRG either. Maybe an artifact? An equipment that gives a Zubera ability?

Pseudo-reprint? I really thought about it during discard week when (MaRo?) wrote an article talking about this is his favorite discard spell.
This would make sense if it were a splice spell. The great thing about the original Cabal Therapy was that you could still use it even if you didn't know the opponent's deck because once you see their hand the first time you can flash it back and know what to hit.
But this really isn't that much more likely than Plow Under or Death Cloud
I could see a couple of enchantments which pump out zubera spirits perhaps?
Meanwhile, there's a gold card at 8BBGG???
Are there any others?

I love Joboman, Poggy, Niv, and Vezok, because, while they may not be the best players, they still try to win. Having fun is the most important thing to a game, but I've learned that if you don't try to win, then you're ruining everyone else's fun.

Name a nonland card. Target opponent reveals their hand and discards all cards with the same name as that card

I'd have to guess an artifact zubera, just for the rounding off the 6 card cycle (they did an artifact dragon) and maybe an enchantment based on zubera tokens..?
what ability would an artifact zubera do? produce colourless mana?
Im not sure if maybe this had already be put on here somewhere (too lazy to search), but curtain = 1. A return for another "of the <something cuz Pale isnt found> Curtain"?

'Him' appears 4 times, but 'her' appears 5 times. I've looked through the thread, but I can't find an instance of someone speculating as to WHY there is this difference. Isn't the phrase normally 'his or her'?

A female card references "herself." Maybe Konda's daughter?

This might be true, but since the Orb isn't taking flavour text into account, this would mean that it would either have to appear as part of a card name, or in the rules text of a card.
The latter isn't likely, since cards always refer to themselves by name, and even if they did use pronouns, would most likely use 'it'.
That leaves card names, and what sort of arrangement would have the word 'her' in it?

Maybe there is a female legend that refers to itself with a pronoun, but I think that would use it like all other cards. It could be part of a name maybe. We did have He-Who-Hungers in Champs.

I thought of that, but then the word used would be 'she', rather than 'her', which is a possessive.
When the 5D Orb was up, we all got really confused by a few results because some flavor text slipped into the Orb. My guess is that it happened again.
I tend to agree with Azerbaijan. But it could be something like Foo, Her Majesty. The only title I've found so far is "reverence" but i've never actually heard "her reverence" before. Just "your reverence" but it might work the same way.
I don't know if this has been discussed already... But I find it incredibly hard to believe that there aren't the Kodamas of East and West trees in saviours. For a block designed almost entirely by flavour, you'd think that they would finish the set of the 5 trees... But according there are no Kodamas... or trees for that matter. Seems really stupid to me...
I'm hoping that the orb somehow got messed up... I'll be very disappointed if they don't have the east and west kodamas.
added 'repeat', 'divided' (I've still got it!)
arrian, can you double check your count, we've got all the same words, but you've got a higher total than I do.

what i find interesting is the one shapeshifter. earlier there was a rumor about a card that copied the abilities of lands. perhaps a land - shapeshifter?
