Remains to be seen how hard the nerfs hit, the hardest will be the precognition stack removal, as the other stuff I never really abused and I did more than well even without ever using Oath of Loyalty. Other thing I'm not sure about is the Protector heal not putting it in defense mode, though it was more for its own benefit and I can see it was powerful when combining the shield with other units it wanted to heal. Still a solid tier 1 imo after it, the precognition change will make Scryer less of a spammable unit unless you plan to not use the doctrine so Aspirant was the next focus. Not too sure about the Aspirant health nerf, that said I suppose Aspirants are more than pretty solid tier 1, enough you may not wanna promote it, so gives more a reason. The hero skill change will be interesting, personally I like it cause it adds bit more strategy than how it is now which is just the precog doctrine lite. Personally once you got the double stack rolling (doctrine and hero skill), you could face armies twice or trice your army strength and barely lose anything, this change won't change much of their early game and is more mid to late game, but that's the point Oathbound was really strong whilst doesn't change early game which can still be tough before you get the doctrine. The precognition change will be interesting.

The same was with Beacon of Hope which those two combined and 2 stacks of precognition just made your blob of units unkillable even against stuff that should break it, such as AoE and psionics. Agreed on the Oath of Loyalty, it's nuts and I've actively avoided to exploit it cause it clearly felt like something that was an oversight.
