Oswald is a fun combo deck with some neat combo lines! The game plan here is to stax your opponents while you put together a line you can win with. While there are some pricier cards in here I am not quite budget-less with this list since I want to be able to build it in paper. I've also avoided using any hard-locks, even though I know there are some good ones with this commander using the likes of Drannith Magistrate with Uba Mask and Knowledge Pool, because hard-locking a board is personally not my kind of thing. This deck is still very much a work in progress so any advice is welcome!
