| 0:00.0 | I'm pulling on my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for the drive to work. |
| 0:06.0 | Okay, so a while ago, I did a podcast that was a trivia-based podcast where I did the top 50 names and magic. |
| 0:15.2 | And it was very popular, so I'm doing another of my trivia top 50s. So once again, I compiled this list with the help of April King, |
| 0:23.6 | aka Cube April. |
| 0:25.6 | So today's list is the top 50 creature types by how often they show up on cards. |
| 0:33.6 | And the way it works is you're counted once per card. |
| 0:36.6 | So on a double face card, werewolf, which would be on both sides is you're counted once per card. So on a double-faced card, |
| 0:38.6 | Werewolf, which would be on both sides, is only counted once. |

| 1:04.6 | because the number one defeats the number two by a magnitude of like power three, I think. |
| 1:10.6 | Number two only has |
| 1:11.5 | 728. So that is your first clue. But a second clue is this creature type did not begin with |
| 1:20.0 | the beginning of magic. In fact, it didn't exist until we started doing the race class model that happened, I think, in Mirdin or Eighth Edition |
| 1:30.7 | Mirdin sometime around then. |
| 1:32.6 | But before that time, not that things didn't exist that were this, but it wasn't a creature |
| 1:39.2 | type, wasn't a listed creature type. |
| 1:41.3 | Okay, and the answer is human. |
