Mistress of Mixtures?
Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
Strangest riddle I've ever seen. Done in a non-conventional poetry style, where I'm guessing some of the lines are just there for the poems effect and not necessarily hinting at the card. But I could be wrong.
Can't help but notice the odd German word in booth poems. Also, they both start with Fiddle dee dum style lines which to me indicates Ogres or Twins or Giants, but I could be wrong. And they both mention brewing of some sort.
To me it was all about a Grimy Goon the 1st time round, but now I have no good idea what's going on at all. I'll leave this one for those with more abstract ways of thinking than myself :-)
I believe that all we need is to breathe and feed and breed and when you feel the need feel free to feel free. Gimpusoid#2403
Man, well done. I was looking at Fiendish Circle too, but call in the finishers never entered my head :-)

Card Design ChampionHere's another hint. Inb4 HunkyPupser is right about some lines not really hinting the card. You have to guess which information is relevant or misleading. kthx
diffli-di dum un' deffle-dee dee
will you still have drink with me?
if thou're free
free from three
families
three three three
that's my place
in the lore
Im old and hoar
hab' kein juice anymore
I see you have to go,
wait, I want to let you know
we might see eachother soon,
I'll tell Rafaam hi from thou.
A (presumably Gadgetzan) card, outside of the three families of Gadgetzan. Has a fixation on drinks, it seems and might be making some kind of appearance in the new expansion.
Or, Mayor Noggenfogger.
He's a major player in Gadgetzan, outside of the families. His card image features a vial of something, and the golden animation sees him flipping a coin. (Counterfeit?)
Overall, he seems as good a guess as anything.
So, when a warrior uses Dead Man's Hand, what does that actually mean in terms of flavor? Is he the dead man? Does he cut off his own hand? Is that why he has Tentacles for Arms? Does he think that tentacles are actually as good as arms?
These reasons and more are why I think warriors are more mysterious than people give them credit for.
mite it be, Friendly Bartender?
he is from gadgetzan, he is not part of the families, and you drink with him at the bar
Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
Well, Bardles already guessed the bartender, about 2 pages ago (Can't blame you for missing that one)

Card Design ChampionWinner.
Ok, the first thing I want to mention is the style of my poems. In my opinion this was the biggest clue someone could get, as this portrays Mayor Noggenfogger's personality. He acts randomly, some would even say chaotically. Whenever you choose a target, the spell/battlecry can land anywhere. There is rarely a logical order (outcome) and when it happens, it's due to pure randomness. His flavour text supports this statement:
And as I said in some posts earlier, I aimed to make a part-gibberish text. This is why I used a mix of German and English words.
The drink, I was referring to in my riddles, is the famous Noggenfogger elixir. It used to be sold by Marin Noggenfogger, but when Cataclysm occurred, his wife Sprinkle opened a stall and started selling the consumables. You can still see the elixir in his hand.
Now let me explain the texts:
Fiddle-dee dum und fiddle-dee dee, If you google this, you will see that this means nonsense.
small cat standin' behind me. Alleycat
Quick, flee -
head to the alley.
No Maly und Sally a) hint for MSOG, b) just to make the poem more melodic
to accompany you, pally,
to my bitty city. Reference to Gadgetzan, as a Mayor, he's in charge of it.
bitty - you can see all sorts of people there, it's divided by the three families after all
It be a pity,
to be all alone
in the L zone Reference to the Jade Lotus family.
with hidden eyes on all corners -
for foreigners on the scout.
Watch out! Reference to the Goons family.
Boon baboon
crooks croon
in inn rooms -
countin' Counterfeit Coins.
If you wanna be safe. I made a mistake for not making a stanza for the Kabal, but
Join me at my place. here I aimed to make a nod to the Noggenfogger elixir.
In my hour of grace
we'll continue our chink
und you'll try mein drink.
With my next stanza I wanted to exclude the Kabal from the list.
fiffle-fee fum diddle-dee dee almost like the first verse, but the consonants are randomly placed
passenger see
not me
brewing alchemist Kazakus
cunninng antagonist
viewing
stewing Gift,
with a swift
you'll be
kruel fool
to try das out
without a doubt
MY beverage you shouldn't miss. Another nod to the elixir,
I can ensure
It's healthy and pure. which turns you into a skeleton.
It will be a bliss!
diffli-di dum un' deffle-dee dee the consonants and the vowels are randomly placed
will you still have drink with me? again with the famous drink
if thou're free
free from three if you have escaped from/ignored the 3 families
families
three three three 3x3=9; Mayor Noggenfogger costs 9 mana
that's my place
in the lore
Im old and hoar
hab' kein juice anymore
I see you have to go,
wait, I want to let you know
we might see eachother soon, This is just a speculation, but Mayor Noggenfogger is in Dalaran.
I'll tell Rafaam hi from thou. Since the RoS takes place there, we MIGHT see the mayor again.
Nice job, it's your turn now.
oops, didn't see that.
Rejoice, for even in death, you have become children of Thanos.
Well cool I had just posted a big explanation of Noggenfogger's lore without refreshing the page. Never mind then
That's a tough act to follow, I've got to say, but I'll do my best.
I'll first tell you this,
When I'm gone, won't be mist.
...
Oh, so you're playing me?
Me, with the threes?
Me with the twos?
That's one way to lose.
A card of bad mojo,
A card who is so-so,
A gain in your force,
(A loss too, of course).
Well, good luck my friend,
Survive me, then end.

The first thing that jumps to mind is Prince Keleseth
I'd agree, but that seems based solely around the phrase "me with the twos? That's one way to lose."
That clue on its own would be enough to say Keleseth, but the rest might be a distraction I guess. Also, that section isn't italicized, which could be relevant.

It is not Keleseth. Further, the lack of italicizing is an error, and I've got no idea why part of it isn't italicized.

It has to be Baku the Mooneater
It fits perfectly.

Ooh now that I'm reading again it would make sense it it was Baku (and dammit someone beat me to the punch again because I didn't refresh the page before posting)
Oh, so you're playing me?
Me, with the threes? (Playing with odd cards)
Me with the twos?
That's one way to lose. (Don't play it with even cards)
A card of bad mojo,
A card who is so-so, (9 mana 7/8 is a mediocre stat line)
A gain in your force,
(A loss too, of course). (Upgraded hero power at the cost of no even cards)
Well, good luck my friend,
Survive me, then end. (At the start of the game, Baku says "None will survive" )
…
Well. It's not the answer I was looking for. The actual card I was looking for was Surrender to Madness.
Threes (3 mana cost, 3 mana lost), twos (+2/+2), One way to lose because it's a weak card. Bad mojo referencing Mojomaster Zihi, who also affects your mana. So-so, again, weak. Gain in your force (buffs your minions) a loss too (Because mana lost). Survive me, then end (Survive the lost resources, then end). 'Won't be mist, both as a reference to the mistcaller, and because I don't think anyone will care about this card going away.
Now, why am I telling you this if you didn't guess it?
Simply, because, honestly, Baku matches just as well as it. The only part you can't finagle is the pun in 'won't be mist,' but honestly? It's good enough.
TL;DR: Is it Baku?
So, for the first time in the time I've been in this thread, one of my puzzles has been solved with a different card than the one I meant for it to be. (Got close once with Kun and Ancient of lore, but not quite)
Datrevdo, come collect your prize.

Also!
When I'm gone I won't be mist. (People happy Baku's getting hall of famed)
A card of bad mojo. (Doesn't work with Mojomaster Zihi, a 6 drop)

Here y'all go. Might be a little tricky but if so I can give more clues.
Speculated I may have been
I’ve been marked, now you will too
No longer will they be so lean
Centuries of old, I will undo
Alas, I was never seen
For my numbers were too few
In obscurity, I now dream
As I’ve returned to where the Kraken’s wilds grew
