Homicidal Brute

Creature - Human Mutant

(Color indicator: Homicidal Brute is red)

At the beginning of your end step, if Homicidal Brute didn't attack this turn, tap Homicidal Brute, then transform it.

For a moment his basest desires run free, unshackled by reason or conscience.

5/1

Card has other part: Civilized Scholar

2011-09-22 If Civilized Scholar attacks, and later in the turn (but before the beginning of your end step), it transforms, Homicidal Brute's last ability won't trigger. This is because the creature attacked that turn, even if had its other face up at the time.
2011-09-22 You don't have priority between untapping Civilized Scholar and transforming it. You can't activate the draw-and-discard ability again, for example.
2011-09-22 You'll tap and transform Homicidal Brute even if it couldn't attack.
