So basically this is what i've been playing with since returning to HS last week, i used it to climb to wild silver 10 so far. And i'd say it's almost fully viable.

For the guide it's basically, keep gonk in your hand when you know you're going into a slower matchup(priest, warrior, mage maybe, although it's not a guarantee that either of these classes will be control in this meta...)to try to guarantee a reduction from either satyr or florist, you question keeping gonk, you NEVER keep shan'do, get that in your head if you want to play this deck. Cards i enjoy keeping are early aggro tools, wrath, spellstone, bees,(naturalize against warlocks), owl against paladin or priest, worthy expedition(for fishing for more removal or card draw), or nature studies(for fishing for more removal or card draw.)

SPECIAL NOTES!!!!

This deck is what i would refer to as a "Secret Gonk" style deck, if your opponent is a priest and they steal gonk from your deck or hand the jig is up, and they won't play any minions for you to hit, same principle is playing Secure the Deck, if you're at a point where you're playing a naked secure the deck you might as well just concede. Sometimes druid decks play pounce and claw,(and if they steal secure the deck from your deck but you don't play it they'll just assume you use it for auctioneer fodder too) and shan'do, but if they see you play secure the deck or gonk, the game is over, they won't play minions small enough for you to remove(without malfurion the total damage without discovering damage from Nature Studies or Worthy Expedition is 5, and with malfurion it's 7) which is why i have since turned away from the Witching Hour version of gonk druid . 7 damage may seem like a lot, but it's really not. So try to take steps to just convince your opponent you're just a run of the mill f2p embiggen druid or some dumb shit like that until you're ready to gonk them.

I tried to play "Secret Gonk" without even having an Imprisoned Satyr or Dreampetal Florist turn and with lightning bloom i think you can do it, but it's VERY difficult mostly because of hand size issues, this is a 6 card combo in total and those would be, gonk, shan'do, claw, pounce, secure the deck, floop gloop. And i try not to add more pieces to that if i can.

Right now i'm sitting at :

50% after 40 games, and i think it could go higher than that, some games i feel if someone more lucky than i am were playing they'd be winning more, since most of the games i will link below you'll notice had to be cut pretty close because of bad draw RNG and maybe if i had enough dust for Sphere of Sapience it would be better but idk at this point i'm fine with 50%

Good Games:

In these games you'll see me gonk people normally, everything goes according to plan, if you're interested in the good stuff i recommend the latter category.

REALLY Good Games:

These games go down to the wire, either by bad draw, lucky opponents, or just plain getting SMORCed down i am forced to gonk at low health totals to win the game, and i succeed, sometimes on the slightest of margins.
