Mycosynth was a strange metallic, fungal organism created due to corruption of Mirrodin with Phyrexian oil. Mycosynth was released in spores throughout the plane, changing metal to flesh, and consequently caused metallic growths in the skin of organic beings while simultaneously converting artifact creatures into living organisms. Large towers of the substance built up in Mirrodin's Core in elaborate lattices while golems composed of the substance also came into being (whether spontaneously or by Memnarch's will is unknown).

The Mycosynth was initially controlled by Memnarch, but upon his death it spread out of control, infecting mirran organisms into phyrexians. When New Phyrexia took over, the former core of Mirrodin became the Mycosynth Gardens, where the fungi are allowed to grow without restriction.[1] Though the Mycosynth spawned New Phyrexia, it ironically prevents new phyrexians from becoming completely metallic due to cinstantly turning metal into flesh.[2]
