Hostile Minotaur

Description

The Hostile Minotaur is a red Common creature card from Magic: The Gathering's Core Set 2020 (M20), designated as card number 331. Designed by Joe Slucher, this card embodies the aggressive spirit of the red mana color through its straightforward yet effective gameplay mechanics. As a 3/3 creature with a mana cost of three generic mana and one red mana, it offers a solid body on the battlefield for a relatively low investment of resources. The defining feature of this card is its Haste ability. This allows the Minotaur to attack and tap for abilities the turn it comes under your control, bypassing the usual summoning sickness restriction. This immediate impact makes it a versatile tool for players looking to apply early pressure or close out games quickly. The card's flavor text humorously notes that a minotaur's bellow always translates to "charge," perfectly capturing its relentless nature. Collectors often seek out the Hostile Minotaur to complete their Core Set 2020 collection or to build aggressive red decks. Its common rarity ensures accessibility, making it a staple in many competitive and casual formats. Whether you are a seasoned Magic player or a new collector, this card represents a classic example of efficient red creature design from the 2019 release.
