I say Oswin. Their growths are near identical, but Oswin starts at level nine, with great stats. He's less suseptible to the rng. While Gilliam can be better. Although, Gilliam gets swords, completing the weapon triangle.

Gilliam FTW
He comes in chapter 2 Much Much ealrier then Oswin. He also has to promotion options both completing the weapon triangle. Also he has great shield. Finally to top it off he has a much cooloer color.

I've seen Oswin chew up and spit out enemys that would scare Gilliam. I found it easier to level up Oswin then Gilliam. One of my Oswins was a decent speed(don't remeber off the top of my head.)

Oswin, technically he also comes at Chapter 2 and Great Shield is hardly an asset.

Finally to top it off he has a much cooloer color. WTF? Oswin comes in chapter 2 eliwood and hector modes. Thats the same time. Lyns mode doesn't count, because it is just a tutorial mode. It doesn't really fit into the story either.
Oh, and you can't spell Oswin, without win.

Gilliam is a tank! I don't know what you're talking about, Oswin being better. Gilliam is one of the best characters in FE8. I used him to slaughter the Demon king on his own, only healing once. He killed the demon king in 3 freaking hits! 3 HITS!!! I'd like to see Oswin do that.
