My tone probably came over wrong as offended. I'm sort of OK with real world references, I just thought that your particular one was limited to America. And that kind of sucks because the rest of us won't really get it or have to look it up.
That's ok. I didn't think about the international community when I made the clue and I would have thought Tough Enough was more international since the WWE is very international. I'll try to keep that in mind next time.
As for the riddle, good job The_Imposter. You're up.
Real world reference? I think you mean made-up MTV American pop culture reference.
I object to you making part of the clue about that (yes, I had to look it up) and calling it a real world reference like everyone should know it or something.
I don't want to make this a thing because this thread is super fun and doesn't need drama but to address this:
I meant "real world", in this case, as "not from the Blizzard universe". I also did it to add some flair as people have also included lore, which not everyone will know either. And, if you didn't look that up, you still could have gotten that riddle. Aldor Peacekeeper is a really strong guess too.
If you guys don't want me to use references like that any more, I won't. I just thought it would add a little different spice to this game.
As for making a riddle, maybe Niksann can make it because Aldor Peacekeeper is close enough to Humility that they can make the next riddle since Christina has offered it up. Although if anyone makes one, I'm sure that will work.
As a note, I like to make references that reach outside of the Blizzard universe in my riddles, but there's always enough game specific content that you should be able to get it without understanding those references. That being said:
The riddle is actually modified lyrics from the bridge of the CD version of the bridge of the Trogdor the Burninator song from Strongbad Sings. The original lyrics are:
When all of the land is in ruin
And burnination has forsaken the countryside
Only one guy will remain
My money's on Trogdor!
Yes, I acknowledge this is not my best lyrical parody work.
As for those lyrics, if your opponent had Troggzor the Earthinator and you played spells, their side of the field would fill with Burly Rockjaw Trogg (Spells have been played/minions have filled the other side) and they all would have come from Troggzor the Earthinator! (only one guy is responsible)
Your turn for the riddle.
EDIT: Sorry for the delay. I was not able to access for forums for a bit, being at work an all.

My work day is so boring when there are no riddles to try and solve.
Well, it's normally boring. It just increases.

I think you're in the wrong thread friend.

Force of Nature? Always summons Treants that die at the end of turn so it didn't work out? I'm taking a shot in the dark.

One guess, one winner.
Patrick was eliminated from Tough Enough during the Humility week and the strongest attack cards in the game go to 1 attack after Humility.
Bonus points for getting the real world reference part.
All yours ChristinaDraws.

I like that riddle a lot.
As a note, I like to make references that reach outside of the Blizzard universe in my riddles, but there's always enough game specific content that you should be able to get it without understanding those references. That being said:
Patrick was not Tough Enough
To use me and stay a player
I make weaklings
Out of the strongest of slayers

Trade Prince Gallywix?
Edit: Thank you Tullido. That's why I dropped a hint that the fourth line wasn't relevant to the card. It was really just to complete the lyric.

Good point, although as you can see from my explanation, it fits with the lyrics I was adapting as I believe I followed the tenses pretty closely.

Welcome hvc0 to the forum and with the correct answer: Troggzor the Earthinator!
To explain:

Not Violet Teacher.

Not Leeroy Jenkins.
Try to connect the first 3 lines. The fourth line is just to complete the reference that the riddle is to something else.

Not Doomsayer. He would fall in the same category as Deathwing. Sort of applies, but is missing a crucial detail.

It is not Sea Giant.
I did not think this would make 10 guesses. I may drop a hint shortly with a few more guesses.
