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 originally released in the Planar Chaos expansion of Magic: The Gathering in 2007, serving as a red-aligned variant of the classic Giant Growth card. It was designed during a time when the game was exploring 'timeshifted' mechanics and color-pie bends, intentionally bringing effects typically reserved for green into the red color palette to emphasize raw, aggressive combat prowess.
The version featured in the 2021 Time Spiral Remastered set retains the original illustrative work by artist Greg Staples. Staples, a veteran contributor to the game, utilized a dynamic, visceral aesthetic to depict the card's theme of temporary, overwhelming physical enhancement. The card was well-received by players for its efficiency in Limited formats and its thematic consistency with red's impulsive, high-impact gameplay style.
