[QUOTE=unlimi_Ted;46496641]Don't forget that Oracle has a base stat gain of 2.9 and a BAT of 1.4 so even his autoattacks will be a threat, and his ultimate only has 13/12/11 seconds of downtime with a 200 mana cost at all levels.[/QUOTE]
Don't forget he already has been nerfed like three times and this is the result.
[QUOTE=Malvodion;46495307]Also his profile:

22-28 attack? Is that right?
[QUOTE=Gate;46496751]22-28 attack? Is that right?[/QUOTE]
The heropedia thing factors in like their actual literal base damage, it's excluding what they get from the starting value of their main attribute.

Also he has above average attack range (620) and decent attack speed (1.4 attacks/sec), and a very confortable attack animation that is also the exact same animation used for all of his abilities so it's very easy to learn how to time your stuff.

His total lvl 1 damage is 45-51.
[editline]15th November 2014[/editline]
wait, wait wait..
Dota's oracle can only channel his q up to 2.5 seconds, but the heropedia says he can channel up to 2.9.
He got buffed. Ice Frog Buffed Oracle.
[editline]15th November 2014[/editline]
I really hope that he only buffed it because his everything else got massivelly nerfed.
[QUOTE=Captain Chalky;46497460]Oracle was stealth nerfed months ago (behind the scenes in Dota 2) but it was never added to DotA 1. He also lost the ability to use Purfying Flames on enemies.[/QUOTE]
They actually stealth-fixed that too, though.

This isn't a buff.
It would mean that he has to channel 2.9 to get the full effect from his Q, rather than 2.5. 2.9 is a longer duration than 2.5, so it is a nerf
[QUOTE=Yahnich;46498328]the skill also says that the purge duration is as long as channel duration though[/QUOTE]
I wonder how this interacts with skills that constantly apply a debuff, like black hole and Upheaval.
Will they get repeatedly stunned and unstunned in the blackhole as the buff is applied and purged?

I'm fairly sure the Purge is the Diffusal Purge that slows as well. The duration refers to the duration of the slow.
No guys, the purge works like Pit of Malice, is just completely stops movement.
And the purge channel likely works like Powershot, you can get the full strength before you actually reach the full channel duration.
[editline]15th November 2014[/editline]
on hit, it purges all buffs/debuffs, then applies damage, then holds the enemy still for the charge duration.

Pit is an ensnare, so it stops some spells like blinks, phase shift and teleportation, but the purge movement pause doesn't stop these

You really should start looking into things before assuming: The damage is not based of the channel time, it always does the same amount of damage, only the purge duration increases with the channeling. A longer channel time means that he can cause a longer purge duration. And just in case: The debuff doesn't remove buffs constantly, it only slows you down, and losses potency as it's time runs out.

Actually Oracle's purge pauses movement completely instead of just slowing to 100 and then allowing recovery.
I am curious about Oracle's role. He seems like he'd make both a good mid and support hero.

That's not what it did when I played him.

That's what it says on the wiki so I assumed that this is what it does since the latest changes to him

No. Voiced by Mike Shapiro, aka G-Man and Barney Calhoun.

God, i hope they record special lines for him when against LC or Tinker. Best thing is that it would probs fit considering who they are voiced by.
"[B]Prepare for unforeseen consequences.[/B]"
I really like the look and voice they gave Oracle. They are far beyond my expectactions
I don't know why, but that mask thing for the new radiant melee creep looks a bit odd to me
Regarding PA's arcana, I know that one day I'd had to buy an arcana, and it seems the day has came (that is, if I can dig some extra moolah this month and take advantage of the preorder discount)
Not as cool as LC though.

LC arcana is the sex.
