Lore[]
Knuckles is unique to Hearthstone. He is briefly mentioned in The Gadgetzan Gazette Volume 32 #7, where he escorts the news reporter out of the building after she asked Mayor Noggenfogger why he would be concerned with making the First Bank of Gadgetzan "unrobbable" after repeatedly denying the skyrocketing crime statistics in Gadgetzan.
On page 2 of The Gadgetzan Gazette Volume 32 #10, a sports article titled "Knuckles Defends Arena Title Amid Accusations Of Performance-Enhancing Bananas" and subtitled "Claims, 'I get my fruit from trees I knock down with my bare hands like everyone else'" discusses how Knuckles, the 32-time arena champion of Gadgetzan's Thunderdome, armed with nothing more than his watermelon-sized fists, seems to be an unstoppable force in the cage and how he is satisfied with getting paid in produce. The article goes on to describe that sports critics have been suspicious of Knuckles ever since the revelation that the fruit the gorilla is so fond of comes from a banana tree near a tainted pool by Sandsorrow Watch, with the proprietor of "Mad Larry's Completely Legitimate Watches" apparently claiming to have seen goblins go swimming in Sandsorrow and come out the size of orcs. The article concludes by stating that "Given the unregulated nature of the Gadgetzan Arena and officials' fear of being torn in half by an irate gorilla, it's unlikely that any action will be taken".
Trivia[]
- Knuckles' stats (3/7) are the same as those of Brass Knuckles (2/3) added to those of a Silverback Patriarch (1/4). Indeed, Knuckles appears to be wearing special knuckledusters in his card art (from which he presumably takes his name).
