Stony Silence, Enchantment, designed by Wayne England first released in Sep, 2011 in the set Innistrad and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's a key card in 1 combos.
This card, Stony Silence, is a powerful tool in Modern and Legacy formats, particularly in decks that aim to disrupt artifact-based strategies such as Affinity or Tron. While it is effective in shutting down artifact abilities, some players may opt for alternatives like Collector Ouphe or Karn, the Great Creator for their versatility and additional effects. Stony Silence should definitely see play in sideboards of decks looking to counter artifact-heavy strategies, but the choice of card ultimately depends on the specific needs and strategies of the player's deck.

Activated abilities contain a colon. They’re generally written “[Cost]: [Effect].” Some keyword abilities, such as equip, are activated abilities and will have colons in their reminder text.

Stony Silence’s ability affects only artifacts on the battlefield. Activated abilities that work in other zones (such as cycling) can still be activated. Triggered abilities (starting with “when,” “whenever,” or “at”) are unaffected.
