Discussion Topic Rules
To make sure that everything runs smoothly, we need to reserve the Submission Topic for submissions only. Everything else goes here. What is everything else, you might ask?
Rules or Process. Do you have a question about the competition's process? Do you need clarification about one of the entry requirements? Are you not sure whether your entry adhered to the rules? Ask here!
Feedback or Ideas. Do you have some ideas you'd like to run by others before settling on one? Do you need help balancing or wording your entry? Do you need help finding art that will fit your card? Or do you just want feedback from the community on your entry? You're in the right place! Remember, although you are allowed to make minor tweaks to your entry after you've submitted it, you're only allowed one submission per week, so make sure that you've settled on your card for sure beforehand.
Discussion! Do you have thoughts on other people's entries? Are there directions you don't like that you're seeing too many people take? Or directions you'd like to see more people take? Would you like to help others and contribute to a greater community understanding of Hearthstone card design and balance? This is where you want to be!
All of that said, please refrain from the following:
Posting TONS of Ideas. Discussion topics become an absolute mess if everybody is posting a dozen different ideas. Please post not more than 3 distinct ideas at a time. Any more than that and we'll have to delete your post.
Advertising Your Entry. Please don't pop in here just to advertise your entry only to never be heard from again. This includes only asking short, generic, or insincere questions like "Thoughts?" or "Do you think this is interesting?". Yes, getting feedback on your entry is one of the purposes of this topic, but we're not just here for other people to help you. We're here for you all to help each other. 12 hours after this competition begins, there should be plenty of other posts here for you to give specific feedback or for you to comment on a trend. If you post your entry for feedback after this time and do not also offer some form of substantial commentary, critique, or praise of others' work, you may find your post deleted.
Plagiarism. Many people post their ideas here before finalizing them in the submission topic. Directly plagiarizing those ideas to post in the submission topic yourself is absolutely not acceptable.

Petrify is kinda a cool idea. It is useless with minions that gain boosts from attacking or taunts, divine shields, etc, but when used with a minion with a passive effect it's a great great card. However, that is kinda dangerous with cards like Ragnaros and Baron Gedon, so I wouldn't count on this idea.
These are all pretty simple ideas so far, but I like at least pushing them out there early so there's more room for complex cards as we go.
Petrify basically means Ragnaros the Firelord exists forever and does what it already does. Otherwise it's a worse Assassinate and kind of acts like Lathy's card from last week, Root...
Doesn't petrify just win the moment you put it on a taunt minion? Not even like a big taunt but a 1/1 taunt would be unable to be killed. Maybe if it removed taunt or something from the creature you put it on?

But rag is first of all not in Standard anymore. Furthermore it's pretty much NEVER used in wild.
And that combo only works if rag gets to survive a turn. Which it obviously rarely does. And if it does, chances are that you've won the game.

Immune nullifies the effect of Taunt, just like Stealth does.

It's kinda ironic that you think that Rag + Petrify is busted when Queen Angerboda and Faceless or Molten Reflection litterally makes all your minions immune permanently :P Eredar Prince is understatted. Mal'ganis was good because it could be thrown out with Voidcaller.
The Acolyte is cool. But i don't know how strong it is. Fairly few minions in the competitive format deals damage through their battlecries, and this is just an understatted yeti elseway. I'd argue this should be a 4/5.

Well I learned something today, never really seen much Immunity + Taunt going on.
Thoughts on something along these lines? I'd like to make something that plays to the idea of Rogue being tricky and creating something where some poisons/poisonous could really shine.
I like the Act of Valor card but I agree with Vilegloom above. It just makes me want to see it named Bubble-Hearth. :)
It does seem WAY too cheap for such a good effect though. You could Leeroy, Act of Valor, do regular things, repeat next turn, maybe even repeat twice if you have the second Act of Valor.
Save your effort, folks: I've got the winner right here :^)
