    Just wondering if anyone found anything interesting on the orb of insight on mtg.com. here are the fruits of my research:

    +1/+1 : 53. could be a major counter theme in simic
    Mutant: 13 (surely simic)
    Demon: 1 (presumably rakdos)
    Horror : 1 (also presumably rakdos)
    Frog: 3
    Wizard: 7
    Advisor: 3
    Destroy: 15
    Avatar : 4
    Nephilim: 2 (hopefully just on flavour text)
    Skip : 1
    Step: 2
    Phase : 1
    +1/-1 : 1
    Blood : 8
    Counter: 49
    Token: 6
    Seal: 5
    Graft: 12
    Fear: 2
    Haste: 3
    Flying: 30
    Trample: 6
    First: 1
    Double: 5
    Return: 18
    Hide: 1
    Seek: 2 (Hide/Seek was speculation on mine and seph's part about a possible split card title for Dimir/Izzet)
    Order: 3
    Combat: 10
    Copy: 4

    Anyone else find anything interesting?

    Other random interesting titbits:

    Forecast: 9 (possibly the Azorius mechanic?)
    Pillar : 1 (i reckon this could be the pillar inscribed with the 10 guild insignias we saw ages ago)
    2BBRR : 1 (we can assume this is Rakdos' cost)
    2GGUU: 1 (we can assume this is Momir Vig's cost)
    faerie: 1
    Djinn: 1
    Land: 25 (6 for the karoos, 3 for the shocklands, 3 for the guildhalls leaves 13 other lands. could be a recurring theme in a guild-i'd say rakdos having the two colours of land destruction could be responsible)
    Dragon: 5 (possibly a new dragon cycle-also notice how the orb of insight is a fiery egg)
    Hydra: 1
    Devil: 4 (rather strange)
    Ghost: 2
    Silence: 1
    Riot: 1
    Cultist: 2
    Phytohydra: 3 (really weird)
