Re: Oedipus : The Strange [OVS]
Quite a special character and a good sculpt!
You can use him as a walking resource of AoW cards. He doesn't only bring 1, he can also sacrifice 1 vitality that counts as an AoW card. Too bad it can only happen at the start of his activation - and he only has 5 vitality!
Perhaps the only figure you can compare him with is Sisyphus (also 2RP cost). Although they work quite differently: Sisyphus brings 4 AoW cards that can be used throughout the game. Oedipus' talents work only once (before he dies). Sisyphus' AoW come as extra cards but Oedipus can use his talents when activated - so it doesn't require you to draw any cards to benefit from him. Hard to say which is better.
If he goes into battle it's a matter of time before he gets killed. Even if he faces just monsters and 0 strategy Gods, they will eventually pay that 2 AoW to destroy him. He isn't there primarily for the fighting and his bonus vs 0 strategy units is mostly a matter of survival.

He seems like a good unit to pick late in the draft, once you know that your opponent will be low on art of war cards.
