What it does
Target creature gets +3/+3 until end of turn.
Blood, bone, and sinew are magnified, as is the rage that drives them. The brain, however, remains unchanged—a little bean, swinging by a strand in a cavernous, raving head.

Where it came from
Brute Force was released in 2007 as part of the Planar Chaos expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set was designed around the concept of an alternate reality, exploring what might have happened if the game's color pie had evolved differently. This card serves as a 'color-shifted' version of the classic card Giant Growth, taking a core green effect and moving it into the red color identity to emphasize red's impulsive and aggressive nature.
The artwork for this card was created by illustrator Kev Walker, a prominent artist in the Magic: The Gathering community known for his gritty and dynamic style. Walker sought to visualize the raw, explosive energy of red magic, moving away from the more naturalistic depictions typically found in green cards. The design was received as an effective mechanical demonstration of the set's central 'what-if' premise, successfully adapting a staple utility card into a new thematic context.
