Mechanics

Afflict: Whenever this creature becomes blocked, defending player loses PARAM1 life. Used on 1 cards: Phyrexian Forerunner

Replacement mechanic for infect.

Parasite: When casting this card its colored mana can be paid by sacrificing a permanent that shares a color with that mana. Used on 5 cards: Spined Beast, Mind Hider, Dismantler Drone, Butcher Mind, Slaughter Child

Replacement for phyrexian mana. Probably would use a new set of mana symbols for this but to look cleaner on multiverse I'll leave it as a mechanic.

Living weapon: When this Equipment enters the battlefield, create a 0/0 black Germ creature token, then attach this to it. Used on 1 cards: Fleshmeld Shield

The only returning phyrexian card. Appears only on equipment.




In card text or details pages, write the mechanic's code name (playtest name) between square brackets, like "[Crittercast]", "[Bushido 1]" or "[Delay 4 {2}{R}{R}]". It will be expanded to the mechanic's name plus reminder text, such as "Suspend 4 – {2}{r}{r}. (Rather than cast this spell from your hand,...)"
To expand a mechanic's name but not its reminder text, include parentheses at the end of the square brackets: "[Crittercast()]", "[Delay 9 {R}()]".
