How Oracle and Riki perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Oracle and Riki win 51.19% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 295 matches.
Letting Riki go completely berserk with False Promise is the main idea here. He can dive the back line, use Tricks of the Trade, and keep fighting well past the point he'd normally have to retreat. While he’s ignoring incoming damage, Oracle can use Purifying Flames to top him off with doubled healing, turning a risky play into a clean kill. This lets Riki build pure damage without having to worry as much about his own survival. Even without the ultimate, a timely root from Fortune's End is great for trapping an enemy inside Riki's Smoke Screen, making for consistent pickoffs throughout the mid-game.
