A warped fungus on a stick is a tool that can be used to control saddled striders.

A zombified piglin that spawns as a strider jockey holds a warped fungus on a stick instead of a 👁 Image
golden sword, and has an 8.5%‌^{[JE only]} or 25%‌^{[BE only]} chance to drop it if killed by a player or tamed wolf, or upon death when angry. This chance is increased by 1%‌^{[JE only]} or 5%‌^{[BE only]} per level of Looting, for a maximum of 11.5%‌^{[JE only]} or 40%‌^{[BE only]} with Looting III.

Similar to how a carrot on a stick is used to control pigs, the player can hold a warped fungus on a stick to control a strider. While holding the item, nearby striders within view are attracted toward the player. If mounted on a saddled strider, the strider moves in the direction the player is facing while holding the warped fungus on a stick. Pressing the use control makes the strider go faster and reduces the item's durability by 1 for every speed boost. The boost lasts for a random length of time between 140 to 980 game ticks (7 to 49 seconds). If its durability reaches 0, it turns into a fishing rod.

The strider's ability to walk on lava makes it a safe transport across the Nether's terrain.

A warped fungus on a stick can be combined with another warped fungus on a stick in an anvil, preserving the enchantments of both.
