Stonebound Control
Petrify is a compact answer for a wide range of threats. With a casting cost of {1}{W} this Enchantment Aura slips into play early and locks down either an artifact or a creature. The printed effect stops the enchanted permanent from attacking or blocking and prevents activation of its activated abilities, which makes the card a reliable way to neuter combo pieces, utility artifacts, or a key attacker before it becomes a problem.
Use Petrify in tempo oriented white shells or in pallets that exploit targeted removal and bounce loops. The card reads cleanly and interacts predictably with both targeted removal and sacrifice effects, so it fits into control lists where you need a low cost answer that also pairs well with flicker or exile recursion. For collectors this is the Near Mint Foil from The Lost Caverns of Ixalan set and it presents well for play or display.
