Bristling Boar

Description

The Bristling Boar is a creature card from the Magic: The Gathering Core Set 2020, designated as card number 338. Released in 2019, this common card belongs to the green mana color identity and features a mana cost of {3}{G} with a mana value of 4. As a Creature — Boar, it possesses a power and toughness of 4/3, making it a substantial presence on the battlefield. The card’s distinct mechanical identity lies in its restriction: it cannot be blocked by more than one creature.

The flavor text notes that the spikes of bone on its hide provide protection and camouflage, reflecting the creature's natural design. Collectors often include this card in their Magic: The Gathering library due to its straightforward design and utility in creature-heavy decks. Its placement in the Core Set 2020 makes it a recognizable part of the game’s foundational roster. Whether used for casual play or collection purposes, the Bristling Boar represents a classic example of creature mechanics within the M20 expansion. For those interested in the history of Magic: The Gathering cards, this release remains a significant entry in the modern era of the game.
