    this is quite interesting and fun

    http://www.wizards.com/magic

    then click on "orb of insight". its on the banner below the two green "tournaments" and "this week" boxes.

    when the popup loads, you type any word into the box and it searches the complete fifth dawn spoiler locked away in wizards of the coast, the it displays the number of times that word appears in the spoiler.

    heres some interesting things i came up with:

    kaldra - 5
    entwine - 9
    arcbound - 1
    affinity - 5
    draw - 9
    equipment - 18
    geth - 0
    cleric - 2
    goblin - 7

    Soldier : 4
    Knight : 2

    Damn that sucks.

    [Edit]
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt there supposed to be 55 Commons, 55 Uncommons and 55 Rares in this set.
    If thats the case then how is there 172 mentions of Creature in the set? :eek:

    Right but assuming every card had the word creature on it, a big assumption, then it still says there are more cards with the word creature written onto it than there are cards in the set :eek:

    they can have creature on the card more than once :) "until end of turn creatures you control get or creatures you control get" etc.

    Hmmm. Thats alot of spells/enchantments/equipment/creatures that have the word creature printed on it...
