Yawgmoth's Agenda depicts Tsabo Tavoc, the chief of the first stage of the Phyrexian invasion on Dominaria, so that's not Yawgmoth. And I'm sure Yawgmoth's Will tries to show the effect of the card "unearthing" a zombie.
Yawgmoth's Edict is too vague to say anything. That tentacle is just moving the pages from a (seemingly) phyrexian tome (which could represent the edict).
Yawgmoth's Bargaincould be him... but I doubt it. Nobody made treats directly with Yawgmoth. He was on the deepest sphere of Phyrexia and only some selected minions were allowed to contact him, so that card's art is more like one of his servants doing the bargain in his representation.
I thought the black mana cloud was a form he took specifically for the invasion? I see no reason why the Bargain card isn't supposed to depict him, other than the fact that people don't like that depiction.
Just because it's "Yawgmoth's Bargain". it doesn't mean that he's the one doing the negotiating. He could have sent that machine thing to bargain with that other guy ex officio (from the office of Yawgmoth)
It always seemed to me that the smaller figure was perhaps a higher up and Yawgmoth was passing a message to them to give to the bargainee. Based on that artwork it seems the giant mechanical monster is built into the floor, which is how I'd picture Yawgmoth at the center, and not how I'd picture someone sent on tasks...
I just noticed the figure is handing over its own eye, so scratch the higher up Phyrexian idea. I still think the artist was trying to depict Yawgmoth though.
I always thought the picture on Planar Despair shows Yogmoth. That's why everyone is despairing, ol' Yogster shows up in person on Dominaria. That's what the flavour text says anyway.
And Phyrexian Arena has Yogmoth watching Garred behead Urza, becuase the entire audience is Yogmoth.

I don't believe Yawgmoth went to Dominaria in physical form, unless you mean that blurry light to the left is him on Planar Despair. I think he was Cloud Form the entire trip (including his death).
Yawgmoth's physical body is long LONG since gone. He was Phyrexia by the time of the Invasion. He could implant his consciousness into many of his underlings though. ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL.

I KNOW YOU FEEL THIS, URZA.
That's the greatest thing I've heard all day.
To keep this slightly relevant, was that a trick that Yawgmoth came up with, or something that was part of Phyrexia? Whoever the new Father of the Machines is, can they do that?

YES HE DID.PLANAR DESPAIR'S ART IS A PICTURE OF YAWGMOTH AND HIS RETAINERS. THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS IN THE FAVOUR TEXT. THAT IS WHAT THE CARD IS DEPICTING. READ THE ☺☺☺☺ING CARD. IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
IF YOGMOTH DIDN'T GO TO DOMINARIA, WHY IS HIS CORPSE CURRANTLY POLLUTING URBORG AS SHOWN IN URBORG OF YAWGMOTH???

i think the humanoids in Planar Despair are definitely the retainers of Yawgmoth. Yawg himself isn't portrayed on that card in any obvious way.
Yawgmoth's "corpse" is a wound in the universe. says it right there in the flavor text. its not a set of decaying flesh and bones or anything like that. Yawg was basically a god made almost entirely of black mana. his "corpse" is the presence left behind on the spot where he was destroyed. the wound in the universe that continues to corrupt Urborg even without a physical presence.

Are we done yelling now?
And Yawgmoth doesn't have a corpse as metamorph mentioned.
The dudes on Planar Despair and Phyrexian Arena all kinda look like the pic in InQuest.
I think those pics are all enough to give you a general sense of what Yawgmoth looked like. Interpretations of any character very from artist to artist anyway.

I thought you were kidding around and being sarcastic with the caps, then I see you start cursing and getting all butthurt. Wierd.
So you're deciding either: A) That of three very similiar-looking Phyrexians in that artwork, one of them is randomly Yawgmoth, looking identically like his little lackies. Or B) That Yawgmoth is sticking to the Arena power, and arriving on Dominaria in the form of his Phyrexian army.
The first option is just ridiculously silly, and the second option is wrong since Yawgmoth went as the mana cloud.
Toward the end of his existence, Yawgmoth never had a physical Body, because he and the plane were one. Those card images show what maybe he inhabited for a time, but he was everywhere. he never stopped to inhabit a single shell. All of those images show various vat priests, demons, engines, etc.
I'm sorry I have to post this and its probably been asked before, with the confirmation that Yawgmoth is dead, does that also close the door with him being inside of Karn?
Karn killed Yawgmoth. Yawgmoth died, atleast the "physical/plague' him died. Could his soul or conciousness have invaded or stored itself inside of Karn? Now that he has lost his spark Yawgie is finally pushing himself to the forefront of his conciousness?
Yawgmoth is Phyrexia. Every bit of Phyrexia is part of the Ineffable. Urza said that once he found a way to extract whatever the heartstone had taken away from Xantcha, as he believed, he would destory the diabolic heartstone. How stupid of him to use it on Karn, really.

He then made himself look somehow more evil, eventually turning into a plague could or something. I don't think that there's a card that depicts him.
In fact...there IS a card that depicts Yawgmoth:
It's the violet-black cloud in the background.

Was the "right" version of him. Even if it is from InQuest.

Either way, chill.
As a god he was a black mana cloud.

Karn killed Yawgmoth. Yawgmoth died, atleast the "physical/plague' him died. Could his soul or conciousness have invaded or stored itself inside of Karn? Now that he has lost his spark Yawgie is finally pushing himself to the forefront of his conciousness?
If anything is it feasable?
