I admit the tone of your post also irritates me and that might be another reason why I don't agree with you. Ungrateful people who bitch and whine over incredibly minor topics like they're the end of the world don't sit well with me.

They didn't buff Oracles so it would be used more. Debatably they didn't even buff Oracles at all. They changed it so that you didn't get two teams playing overly defensive to not put the Oracles holder at risk. This only tells me you don't know what you are arguing about.

I don't know if the balance team were already aware of the upcoming vision changes by the time they changed Oracles, but if they did then I'm assuming it was just a bandaid fix to temporarily solve that problem. Same way a champion might get Evelynn'd/Olaf'd pending a large rework.

I say you're complaining for the wrong reasons because you either don't seem to know what the intended uses for the trinkets are or just spend your time grossly accentuating their negatives. Totem is not meant to be a substitute for actual warding, and it sure as hell is not there to grant 'permanent vision for free', especially in laning when permanent free vision is absurdly overpowered. You already seem to know what Lens and Orb are meant for but instead you complain anyway by ignoring what happens if you use it correctly/saying their cooldowns are too long. Well, no shit to the former and the latter is a tiny numbers tweak that does not deserve a giant blog post wailing on about it.
