Lore

Hex Lord Malacrass is a witch doctor of the Amani forest trolls, a boss in Zul'Aman (both the original raid version and the revamped dungeon version), and the one who devised the plan of imbuing the greatest warriors of the Amani with the essences of their loa gods.

From the original World of Warcraft website
Furious at the Horde's latest betrayal, Rastakhan's RumbleZul'jin was pleased when the witch doctor Malacrass approached him with a devious plan to crush the elves once and for all. Malacrass had studied the Zandalari high priests and their ability to call upon the favor of the animal gods. He also knew that the elves had magically bound one of the mighty naaru, using it to channel the power of the Light into their own ranks. Malacrass had devised a similar plan: to seal the power of the animal gods within the bodies of the Amani's strongest warriors. Zul'jin quickly approved the plan and lent his full support. Malacrass experimented tirelessly and succeeded in imbuing four warriors with the essence of mighty animal gods: the lynx, dragonhawk, bear, and eagle. Some adventurers fear that Malacrass may have bound a fifth, even darker essence within his own soul....
From the World of Warcraft Adventure Guide
Rumored to be the most feared witch doctor of the Amani tribe in decades, Hex Lord Malacrass has done the unthinkable and sealed the essences of several mighty troll animal gods in their strongest champions ... keeping the darkest one for himself.

In Hearthstone lore, Malacrass instead serves as the champion of Jan'alai's Dragonhawks, the fire-obsessed mage team in Rastakhan's Rumble.

The fury of Jan’alai the Dragonhawk loa fuels Malacrass’s fire on the Rumble field. Despite a flair for the dramatic, Malacrass is a clever opponent. He’ll give Mages who are willing to plan ahead access to useful resources.[1]
Rastakhan's RumbleRikkar admired Malacrass’ showmanship. Despite his team’s reputation as hot-heads, they knew how to fire up the crowd before sending the fireballs flying.[2]

Strategy

If encountering 'Freeze Lord Maracas, (Janalai's progeny totem) avoid playing minions and try to keep board size low. Otherwise, you essentially face a freeze mage that spams 0 cost 1 damage spells, which when boosted by Malygos become a massive problem
