In an era where it seems like every Legendary / Commander has to enable a thing, do the thing, and then reward for the thing, Oskar stands out because by himself, he really doesn't do anything. Sure, he has a very specific thing he wants to do, but he still requires at least a little thought with his deck construction. I took this as a challenge to figure out how I can best build around him not as the deck's lynchpin, but as the engine.

At the risk of sounding reductive, as long as we discard cards we want to cast, any kind of loot effect becomes plain card draw. If we have some other benefit active, it becomes card draw with upside.

One additional note is that Oskar, like Madness, ignores normal timing rules when it comes to casting spells. The opportunity to cast the discarded card happens during the resolution of his triggered ability. This is a neat little workaround to essentially give all of our spells Flash, and to dodge instant-speed graveyard interaction. I'm aiming to take advantage of this as much as I can and grind out some value over the course of the game.

I apologize for the deck title.
