Template:Coldlight Oracle strategy

The Coldlight Oracle Battlecry is a significant source of card draw power, but has the downside of also giving your opponent draw power. This makes the card less favorable as generic card draw, but works well in two different cases: combo decks aiming to draw key cards as soon as possible, or forcing the enemy to overdraw.

In combination with cards that allow it to use its Battlecry multiple times, such as  Shadowstep and  Brann Bronzebeard, it is possible to fill you or your opponent's hand quickly by playing the Coldlight Oracle multiple times. With cards drawn with a full hand, any card that are overdrawn will be displayed and destroyed, and when they have run out of cards in their deck, they will start taking Fatigue damage. Coldlight Oracle is a core card for these types of decks that aim to burn a few cards and attempt to win through massive Fatigue damage, known as mill decks.

Coldight Oracle can also be used as a "last resort" in aggro decks to get draw immediately. Since murloc decks often rely on winning the game early, this card can be used to gain additional draw power to go on the offensive sooner.
