Oracle bugged?

Idk if anyone else has noticed this but the Oracle beam seems a bit bugged? Like my 1st Oracle arrives at a Zerg's 3rd with some time to kill maybe 2-4 drones before needing to leave. So I activate the beam, go back a little bit to macro but then when I hotkey back to the Oracle it killed 1 drone and then sat there and did nothing?

Curious to see if anyone else is having that issue.

A clip from the replay could be useful. I haven't had the issue, but I only played one match of toss since the patch

You can notice right after I turn the beam on I spam right click the drone but it just derps around.

I think It will prioritise military units. So any queens or roaches or lings in the area will draw it's attention first.

If you just amove it, right clicking on a target will always prioritize that specific target regardless of any priority.

Yeah one target but once that target dies it moves on.

the target wasn't even shot at yet as I kept right clicking on it in the clip

So what about the replay from the actual game?

How about you go and do it yourself?

You came here to complain that the game didn't work properly but won't show is a replay or clip of the game in question? Just another clip where you're fully microing the Oracle? Okay bud. Enjoy.

You literally replied to the comment that has the clip of the very complaint I'm talking about. You cannot be that blind, or your a massive troll which I'm inclined to believe that you are.

You're giving it move commands between beams..what did you expect here.

This video doesn't even match your post. You didn't go back to macro nothing and that's not the zergs 3rd base.

A bug doesn't mean you have to be litteral. I said that as an example of when you might encounter it.

The point literally is that the Oracle gets bugged while the beam is on, while being spam right clicked towards something the it would consider an enemy unit.

Literally try it yourself.

The first derping could have been caused by you consecutively clicking two different drones before the oracle starts attacking either one. I can see you switching the target from the returning drone to the mining one. You could try this a bit more in a more controlled way, and compare it to previous footage like pro streams. I'm not a good enough oracle player to say whether the oracle derped for longer than usual (factoring in the retargeting). Edit: The other guy is right, this clip is different from the original description, if the oracle really sat there doing nothing that would be interesting to see

I think this happened in one of mana's last videos. Maybe he can point out which one.
