Whatever happened to the Mirari? After Onslaught, Karn made it into Memnarch, and when Memnarch was destroyed, it was left in the care of Glissa, Slobad, and Geth. Now that Slobad is dead, and Glisa and Geth are Phyrexian, the Phyrexians control one of the most powerful artifacts in the Magic storyline. So why hasn't it been mentioned in the story?
Yeah, I'd say until we hear more, just assume Slobad had it. The goblins killed him, looted his corpse, and threw the Mirari into the furnace.
Anyway, Karn fixed the glitch after Memnarch was destroyed, so it might not be as powerful as it once was.
I exploit it to explain the sudden massive mutation of the goblin race.
They got their hands on the Mirari after swarming Slobad, kept it long enough for it to alter their race, and when they worked out what was causing that, tossed it into the planetary core to never be seen again.

Wouldn't the basic nature of the Mirari make them not throw it into the Furnace? It acts kind of like the One Ring.
Maybe the Phyrexians have it and are going to attempt to create or 'resurrect' Yawgmoth with it? Or maybe Bolas somehow got it because he's the only villain that exists anymore, which would be lame.

The Mirari only had that effect before it was fused to Kamahl's sword. Once he affixed it to his sword, he... polluted it, showing it how it had twisted those desires and made it realize how badly that had screwed things up.
Also, the New Phyrexians think Yawgmoth was an overblown twerp. Jin-Gitaxias and Sheoldred actively mock him. Nobody is pulling for his return because they all think he's a schmuck.
Bolas having it really wouldn't make any sense, so I doubt they'd do that.

i hope yawgmoth will return and will show that puny little pretors what is a real phyrexian badass
Yawgmoth is dead and never returning. Creative has stated this repeatedly.
EDH, on the other hand, is more like a monster truck rally. It's more about the spectacle than the race, the games go long, and it's not usually clear who's in the lead until there's only one truck left.*
Single player EDH is like two guys smacking each other with pillows... until one of them pulls out a shotgun.
I've never run across anything that would suggest that... it also doesn't help that neither of those artifacts are legendary as they should be if they were the mirari.
They [Creative] could make a new Yawgmoth. Maybe a son/clone of Yawgmoth?
This isn't Marvel, so clones are out.
As for a son, one of Yawgmoth's big character arcs is that Rebbec was the only person he ever loved. He hid the cracked powerstone halves (later known as the mightstone and weakstone, later still as Urza's eyes) inside Glacian's wounds to try and accelerate Glacian's death so that he (Yawgmoth) could be with Rebbec. She was never with him. She realized what he had done, and removed the stones from Glacian's corpse and used them to seal the portal to Phyrexia, exiling Yawgmoth from Dominaria, and then committed suicide by walking into the death cloud that was destroying Halcyon.
He was so obsessed with her that, in his madness during the Invasion, he saw both Gaea and the spirit of the Weatherlight as Rebbec.
If he somehow had a child, 9000+ years later, by anyone but her? I doubt even Creative would do that. And if somehow he did impregnate her while they were together in Phyrexia, she let herself be consumed by a column of energy, so any fetus would have been annihilated. And he was so egotistical I doubt he would have stolen one of her eggs and tried to grow his own heir--the very idea of having a son to cede power to at some point would have appalled the Lord of the Wastes.

Actually, I could see a clone of Yawgmoth being made. Some of the Phyrexians want to create the PHyrexia of old and find some genetic material of Yawgmoth and remake him.
The child idea was more of a joke. Although it would be somewhat not impossible for Gaea and Yawgmoth's "presence" to create a new entity and that being being like a "son" or "daughter".

The thing is, while they want to recreate the planar structure and such, they regard Yawgmoth as a failure. All of them look at him as inferior because he didn't make good on his goal and thye went and conquered a plane, so how hard could it be?

We all just have to accept that Yawgmoth or any descendants related to him are either dead or exiled in another plane somewhere. He had a stupid name anyways. Plus he was a dick. Have you guys read about some of the stuff that guy did?
Marvel doesn't only use clones. Clones are more used for retcons for OOC moments, though the retcons get retcon'd later. But they do use actual resurrections. (I know, complaining when one of those characters is named Phoenix seems like stupidity.)
Anyway, to answer the OP, the Mirari's still on Mirrodin, though since Slobad's probably dead, and Glissa and Geth are Phyrexian now, it's back to being its old evil self. (Though the Mirrans have, ah, bigger issues.)

Card advantage is not the same thing as card draw. Something for 2B cannot be strictly worse than something for BBB or 3BB. If you're taking out Swords to Plowshares for Plummet, you're a fool. Stop doing these things!

That's not true. Karn fixed the Mirari at the end of Fifth Dawn, so it's no longer leaking corrupting power everywhere. Also, it's likely been chucked in a furnace by goblins and melted down now.
eh, it'll probably pop up next time around when they resolve the conflict on new phyrexia. it'll be something silly and painfully obvious like the phyrexians have it think its some kidn of ultimate weapon, activate it somehow or do something with it but oh no, karn thought of that all along and it really destroys them.
We all just have to accept that Yawgmoth or any descendants related to him are either dead or exiled in another plane somewhere. He had a stupid name anyways. Plus he was a dick. Have you guys read about some of the stuff that guy did?
Yes. I have. I have read all of the stuff. Him being a dick is kinda the point. It would be a disappointing world-assimilating villain if he weren't. And "the stuff", at its worst, was still more interesting than the semi-passable villainy that's pushed to the forefront now, so I'm not seeing a problem from the reader side with him.
"He had a stupid name anyways." Well, I'm sure a lot of people thought the same o' ole Voldilocks, people still feared to speak it. Don't really care what the name sounds like all that much. ...and what was dumb about "Yawgmoth" anyway?

Given it's Yawgmoth, I think the old Doombot excuse is more plausible.

The franchise MtG most resembles is Battlestar Galactica. Why? Its players exist in, at most, a dozen different models at any given point in time, with perhaps up to 3% variation, 5% if you're lucky.
Just a guess, but Urabrask could have it. It's somewhere on Mirrodin, and Urabrask is clearly hiding something from the rest of them. It's possible that it's hidden in his furnace layer.

Nope. It was turned into Memnarch and then left with Glissa, Slobad, and Geth after Memnarch was destroyed.

Then why was it mentioned during the Mirrodin block?
