Having a word art for a card is very unusual and I doubt "Google images" is a valid source.
I am not sure this card is situational or not as it requires the opponent to play shield to be useful, and other PC like deflag and steal exist.
Useful for immaterial shields I guess?

I agree that this card should last as a permanent for as long as it is in play. It's a great counter to aether or any shield-dependent deck.
So basically

Deflag 2 :fire
Destroys opponent shield
Can destroy other permanents
Disruption 5 :gravity
Stuns opponent's shield, and only shield
Affects you as well
Disruption should cost no more than 3|2 :gravity, and I'd even hazard a guess to 2|1.

Having a word art for a card is very unusual and....The art is just because I didn't know what art to put, if this card is ever put into the game (Which is Unlikely) I'm sure Zanzarino would change the card image. :)
If anyone has some time to make art for this card that would be GREAT!!! (You will be credited) Send a link to me or something if not I'm keeping it with this art.

Although I assume it affects enchanted shields, the cons outweigh the pros.

Much worse than this:Not necessarily. Consider using it to thwart Dim. Shield or Wings.
Although I assume it affects enchanted shields, the cons outweigh the pros.
Deflag gives 1 turn to deal damage for 1 card and 3 :underworld .
This spell gives 3 turns of damage for the same cost.
Similarly, this will counter bone-shield. Deflag is pretty useless there.
Then there are immaterial shields (which you already noted)
Its basically a counter vs decks that rely on spamming shields, or using shields resistant to destruction.
As a side note, you should probably put the 3 round duration should be put into the card text since there is enough space to do so.

If you're keeping the 3 turn mechanic, add that in the card's wording. I think its too strong for a shieldless speedbow, since 3-9 turns are more than what you need to kill your opponent, and he can't just play another shield like with deflag or steal.I was actually thinking the same when I first saw this. Balancing properly may be tricky since this seems to be occupying a rather particular niche...
It will be a rather severe nerf to both wings and dim shield... For dim. shield, that may not be such a bad thing, but wings will start seeing even less use.
I don't really like dim shield spammers... but then mindless speedbows that they keep in check are just as bad.

Also:
Well I didn't really think about the less use of Wings, maybe a better idea would be that instead of it stoping shields from working, it would stop weapons, like a permanent phase shield that only effects weapons... Tell me if you think this is better?! ?_?If you're keeping the 3 turn mechanic, add that in the card's wording.

This card will not be permitted into the Crucible due to one or more of the following errors:
- Table filled out incorrectly.
Correct these errors as soon as possible and feel free to submit again when ready.
Thank you. ^_^
Don't forget to fill out the 'ELEMENT' section, with the card's element in words.
If the card costs elemental quanta (not :rainbow), then this must be expressed with the correct quanta symbol. (eg. 7 :entropy)
Only fill out the 'TYPE' section with either Creature, Spell or Permanent, nothing more or less.
