oracle is picked cause of 1st and ulti
1st debuffs magic like qop Strike SIlencer curse and consider to be i think medium debuff
ulti is on the other side strong debuff and can debuff besstmaster stun batrider lasso and any kind of stun even bane ulti
ulti also doubles heal and if u cast W and E on ally he gona gain alot of hp (use meka 500 hp heal ) ,Urn nice also
So oracle is picked when u have enemie like batrider beast silencer qop etc
since j0's and triple's pics that clearly don't violate any rules
when are posts like that one above me getting deleted?
not even stan king or hajadlo play oracle anymore
i guess i'll just pick the hero in some special cases.
sad
i used to spam dazzle before oracle, w/e this suits me as well, although playing oracle was really fun.
also what's with the rubick rise
i cant play dazzle LMAO i must have brain damage
dazzle and venge, so much harder than oracle somehow
i liked oracle because despite being pretty successful with him, i felt like there's huge skillcap and i was aware of my mistakes and was deleting them over time (like decision making about disarming someone/not edicting in time, letting the purge for too long, missing the heal cancel by Q because target got into fog/stayed too close to me while Q->E) etc
shoutout to my last streamed oracle game where i disarmed my luna while trying to heal her and lost a teamfight (and possibly the whole game) because of that
anw fuck you icefrog
gonna learn rubick then
good against ember (ember cant do shit to him, he makes ember feel really weak in general)
pretty good with luna/drow if theres a hero he works well with since they cover his laning weakness and make him feels uper strong, oracle luna = strong lane
i think hes generally underpicked atm, hes nowhere near as bad as ud think he is from his pickrate in competitive. especially in a meta where heroes like naix/jugg/luna exist where safelane is basically impossible to contest, its not like his laning nerfs mean shit anymore, he can pull the safelane and get levels fairly easily as long as you pick an independent safelaner like one of the above ones (luna u help zone with but its still ok). this hero desperately needs arcanes, so as long as you pick a scenario in which you will get levels and gold out of your safelane, i think hes aite, theres a lot less room for error with the hero though now cuz of the cooldown increase on false promise and manacosts being quite high on his e now
he makes bat super fucking useless too so if bats an issue for you just pick oracle, any time bat dives you have two spells that make him do nothing and you can output a ton of damage on him and u can root him under tower, but i dont think bats absurd anymore
think og still picks him sometimes
