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 released in 2016 as part of the Oath of the Gatewatch expansion for Magic: The Gathering. As a common instant, it was designed to provide efficient combat utility in the Limited format, serving as a staple pump spell that granted both a power boost and the trample keyword. The card reflects the set's focus on the interplanar conflict against the Eldrazi, emphasizing the raw, visceral power needed to challenge otherworldly titans.
The card features artwork by veteran illustrator Wayne Reynolds, known for his high-energy, dynamic style frequently seen throughout the franchise. Reynolds captures a moment of intense kinetic force, illustrating a warrior channeling overwhelming physical strength to break through defenses. The piece was well-received by players for its classic fantasy aesthetic, fitting seamlessly into the aggressive red-aligned strategies of the era.
