I want to see debates from players between the effectiveness of Oracle vs Trinket & Pink wards after after these few years. Some says Oracle is more better for clearing wards in Jungle and also for Teemo's mushrooms. Some says Red Oracle Trinket & pink wards was not efficient because of its limit.However the limit improvise players strategies and more teamwork on the map. objectives control etc .such as pink wards war on bottom lane.
as someone who plays a lot of aram i have a ton of experience with this item, so i have 2 cents to add to this conversation
no, i dont think oracles elixir is a healthy item. many champions rely heavily on stealth mechanics and much of this is already trivialized by the existence of pink wards and the oracle trinket. however the difference between these items and the elixir is that they must be used on command and they have a short duration.
the elixir completely shuts down stealth blindly. if khazix or talon ults in a fight a player has to use his stealth trinket or drop a pink ward immediately. an elixir would immediately spot this with no interaction from the 'elixered' player. furthermore, it removes the value of lengthened fights. if an oracle trinket or pink is used in a fight and 30 seconds later a second fight occurs, the stealth mechanic has the advantage. an elixir just makes the stealth mechanic 100% useless for its entire duration, and once you're full build you can assume 100% uptime.
champions shouldn't have timers on them that say "past x minutes you are useless" and the oracles elixir does this exactly.
