What it does
Target creature gets +3/+1 and gains trample until end of turn. (It can deal excess combat damage to the player or planeswalker it's attacking.)
It's not the size of the rock. It's how badly you want to lift it.

Where it came from
Brute Strength was first introduced in the Fate Reforged expansion of Magic: The Gathering in 2015, capturing the savage essence of the Mardu Horde. The card functions as an instant that grants a creature a temporary power boost and trample, mechanical traits designed to represent the overwhelming, momentum-based combat style of red-aligned factions in the game.
This specific printing appears in the 2017 Duel Decks: Merfolk vs. Goblins release, which was designed to pit two iconic fantasy tribal archetypes against one another in a balanced, ready-to-play format. The artwork by Wayne Reynolds maintains his signature dynamic, high-energy style, utilizing dramatic lighting and exaggerated perspective to emphasize the brutal physicality required to overcome an opponent's defenses.
