Gameplay and rules
Legendary Creature — Elder Fungus
Trample
The Mycotyrant's power and toughness are each equal to the number of creatures you control that are Fungi and/or Saprolings.
At the beginning of your end step, create X 1/1 black Fungus creature tokens with "This token can't block," where X is the number of times you descended this turn. (You descend each time a permanent card is put into your graveyard from anywhere.)

In either case, it doesn't matter if those cards are still in that player's graveyard.
wotc10 Nov 2023
Abilities that begin with "At the beginning of your end step, if you descended this turn" will trigger only once during your end step, no matter how many times you descended this turn. However, if you haven't descended this turn as your end step begins, the ability won't trigger at all. It's not possible to put a permanent card into your graveyard during the end step in time to have the ability trigger.
wotc10 Nov 2023
Multiple cards have abilities that begin with "At the beginning of your end step, if you descended this turn." These cards don't need to have been under your control at the time you descended. For example, if a permanent card is put into your graveyard during your first main phase and you cast Stalactite Stalker your second main phase, its ability will trigger at the beginning of your end step.
wotc10 Nov 2023
The ability that defines The Mycotyrant's power and toughness works in all zones. As long as The Mycotyrant is on the battlefield (and still a Fungus, or somehow a Saproling), that ability will count The Mycotyrant itself.
wotc10 Nov 2023
If you control a creature that is both a Fungus and a Saproling, it counts only once for The Mycotyrant's middle ability.
wotc10 Nov 2023
Some cards refer to a player who has "descended this turn." This means that a permanent card has been put into that player's graveyard from anywhere this turn.
