Why this works
Stacking save abilities from these two heroes seems like it should make a core unkillable. The synergy is there on paper: a big Hand of God from Chen during an Oracle's False Promise provides a massive burst of healing that can turn a fight. Oracle can also use Fate's Edict to make one of Chen's key creeps magic immune, protecting a valuable aura or disable. The issue is that both heroes are primarily defensive, offering very little lockdown or initiation. A lineup with both Chen and Oracle can feel passive, forced to react to the enemy's aggression rather than setting the tempo. This leaves the draft dependent on its other heroes to create action and control fights.
