The effect can stack？ (or whatever you want to call it)

My opponent used a faceless and had two gonks on board, killed two minions of mine and attacked me four times for 28, is this intentional?

Same thing happened to me, maybe it is intentional which is why they were pushing the "hero attacks" deck so hard because if that's actually how Gonk is supposed to work then hes pretty damn good for OTK. On the other hand that is such and important feature to how gonk plays that I feel like it would have been mentioned somewhere by blizzard, like card text or when the card was revealed

Yes, working as intended.  Ha, you got Gonk'ed.

 That's unexpected.

Both krip and trump rated this card one star.

"absolute garbage" - Kripp.

Well, we will see once the meta settles, but it seems really OP now.

Toast found out about this before today, it's intentional, not likely to happen though

I would ask the opinion of a dandelion before consulting Kripp on the value of a Hearthstone card.

G'not a G'nome

It's a G'onk and you've been Gonked

So Gonk one turn and next turn otk with the floopster, faceless and decent attack spell(s) 2xclaw 2xpounce. I wonder how many face hits you could get with three if there are enough minions

seems like fun.  Can't wait to try.

You got Gonk'd

Yeah, I found that out in the second game I played with Druid and Gonk, couldn't believe the value I got out of it.

Fantastic, isn't it? Druid just got the last ridiculous weapon it was missing in its arsenal.

and yes, Druid has another annoying OTK deck now. The wider you go the more hits he gets

Something tells me this deck isn't gonna be a thing.  You need to have Gonk stick a turn, you have to copy him once or twice, and your opponent has to have a minion on the board and you have to kill it with your hero otherwise you don't get to attack again.  As far as combos go that's pretty thin

I'm at rank 3 with my Gonk deck right now.   The OTK is really fun when it goes off.  You don't really need to full combo people most of the time with Arcane tyrants and things wearing them down like in Maly druid.  Twig and 1x Florist are what I'm using to enable the combo but 10 mana Taldaram + Gonk + Pounce + Pounce was enough to win some of the times

Got destroyed by that, didn't know and didn't expect it at all - I cleared one Spreading Plague and played my fully buffed spellstone - opponent played Gonk, Faceless (one was discounted by Florist), 2x Pounce and he had twig...proceded to clear my Leokk and 4 wolves and hit me for like 28 damage in the face xD 

The true strength of Druid lies in the fact you oftentimes don't know which OTK it is...I was sure it it was Maly Druid -.-'

You don't need him to stick,you have floop..

As for the minions on board,you run leeroy

I know, it's obvious, but, i think, deck with gonk can be more powerfull, he is a beast that s mean, you can resurrect him with witching hour (twig not needed) and can be 100% drawn with new 4 mana draw a beast. I know, bad thing - you can't pick spreading plague and malfurion, but it s possible opportunity for future development these deck.

But, still not super powerfull, coz you need enemy minions - min. 2 for killing your opp. But bright side - almost 100% decks must play minions for wining the game

It's clearly unintended. The card reads "... may attack again", but at the moment it's working like it would read "... gains an extra attack". It's a programming oversight. 

I haven't played Gonk or against him (yet), so was wondering what exactly is the potential issue here?

He can attack normally. Then Hero attacks, giving him another attack.

If you can reset Hero power and attack again with the Hero, Gonk will get ANOTHER attack.

That's what I read.  

Anyone kind enough to explain the issue?  Thnx

Gonk's effects stacking is kind of a glitch imo. It doesn't make much sense and feels pretty unconsistent. Just think about it: do Electra Stormsurge or Brann effects stack? No. Why should Gonk's work instead?

I feel like they won't even nerf it, since the wording is correct. They will just correct the glitch with a patch. But they will have to issue a full dust refund nonetheless since this is the only reason people will ever craft it.

 It’s in the wording: brann and electra both say “twice” , but gonk says “again”. 

It’s the same as if i would say:

- “you can take 1 cookie from the jar, two times. You can take a cookie two times. You can take a cookie two times.”

Then you still can only take 2 cookies;

- but if i say: “you can take a cookie from the jar. And again. And again. And again”

you can actually take 4 of them.

this might be a (very) stupid example, but it explains it i think. “Twice” doesn’t stack. But “Again” does.
