Rhonas not working as printed [Dev's Aware]

The following has happened to me
multiple times now: On my turn with Rhonas and a low-power creature on board, I temporarily pump one of my non-Rhonas creatures to have at least 8 power. Rhonas attacks as expected. At the end of the turn, my creature returns to its normal size so that now no creature other than Rhonas has power at least 8. Despite this, it is now able to block on my opponent's turn, even though Rhonas's text suggests it shouldn't. At the beginning of my turn, it is again not able to attack or block unless I again pump another creature to 8 power. 

Seems like it was coded to work like Bontu. I haven't been able to test the other 3 non-Bontu gods. They might have the same problem.

    Hey Delnai, thank you for filing this report. I've gone ahead and passed this on to the team for further investigation.

    I have Rhonas and have not been able to duplicate this. I have noticed however that if the attacking creature has berserker it will attack Rhonas even if he is the only creature on my side, wich seems correct to me since he is not disabled.

    That is correct. Gods are amazing against berserker creatures as they practically neutralize them.

    I have consistently been able to reproduce it both with Mantle of Webs and Haunted Cloak. 

    Step 1: Cast Rhonas with no other creatures in play and then cast Hainted Cloak on it. 
    Step 2: Opponent casts non-berserker creature. 
    Step 3: I cast a 6-power creature then cast Larger than Life on it. Rhonas (correctly) attacks. 
    Step 4: On opponent's turn, I control only creatures with 6 power. Opponent's non-berserker creature attacks, and Rhonas blocks it.

    @G_pretender Maybe you can say more specifically under what circumstances you expected to reproduce this behavior but were unable to? I'm sure it would help the devs.

    my experience is that once enabled rhonas will block
    until the beginning of my next turn. it doesn't match
    the text but I don't see an immediate problem with it.
