Bad card obviously and a “sitting duck” the same way as Millhouse in giving your opponent a 0-mana opening (THAT’S what you meant by I was close with him, not being a Classic). Also not quite Wild yet but 6 expansions old. Also is a bird-person so sitting “duck” works in a punny way.
Fear what lurks in the swamp - Un'Goro is kind of a swampy jungle and you said it's a Wild card? But also up in the sky - flying minion You can't even scream - can't scream because of the hard removal... When you hear its cry - ...which is caused by the battlecry?
I’m one of the OG soul thieves - assuming "soul thief" is a reference to Lifesteal & "original" is from WotLK where that keyword debuted?
my text now is kind of tame - only has lifesteal & charge, whereas Zilliax also has magnetic and divine shield?
I was a useful ally in my day, - this has me really stumped so idk here. Have been thinking this was referencing an "Ongoing Effect" card like Timber Wolf or Sorcerer's Apprentice but none of those really seem to fit the other clues?
now technology makes me lame - Zilliax as noted above
Ah is it [Hearthstone Card (C’Thun) Not Found]? The better technology being [Hearthstone Card (Mecha’thun) Not Found] and the OG standing for OldGod rather than original gangster.
Although my kind is almost extinct,

Dreadscale
4x2=8. “Other half” is Acidmaw with cost of 7.
8-7=1. 1 is 1/3 of 3 which is Dreadscale’s cost.
Oh think I’ve got it now: Duskfallen Aviana?

So if I was on the right track with Millhouse, I’ll go with Nat Pagle.
Bad card since always you’re unlucky and never have his effect trigger; sitting duck since has no attack value to fight back
I have guessed Millhouse Manastorm re: JFK’s riddle and didn’t get an answer. That appears to be the only guess vs their riddle atm
Edit to my original guess now that I’ve thought about it more:
Millhouse Manastorm?
just really seems to fit the overall riddle without anything being super “giveaway-y
So then the obvious answer is Ben Brode lol
Ravenous Pterrordax?
Fear what lurks in the swamp - Un'Goro is kind of a swampy jungle and you said it's a Wild card?
But also up in the sky - flying minion
You can't even scream - can't scream because of the hard removal...
When you hear its cry - ...which is caused by the battlecry?
Ironbeak Owl?
Assuming they meant "go on". Anyway just go for it - you commented first so its yours
well damn that riddle was way easier than I thought....good job

AH there we go:
Wickerflame Burnbristle
So then the current version Queen of Pain?
My other guess was the OG Penance that could target heroes? This one:

Chillblade Champion?

Deathlord? The usurping technology being Hecklebot
Correct! Book Wyrm it is!
Wrong card, right expansion
Nope
