occulus is a beast, but no one can play him at a high lvl to his maximum capacity. Also it takes some time to get used to his buggyness like ub.

the major fault is that people fail at lvling with him. the second biggest mistake is how double jump is used. And i don't think more than 5 people know how to lvl his skills right lol

and yes with ueberfix he is tier 1 and can beat a ub easily. imo with a pro occulus you can't lose to giants at all. but people fail at keeping portals.

and the lack of an interrupt keeps him from being OP.

Occulus lvl 5 dmg output when added with a cleanse is amazing,  with monks he can solo a ub and hold his lane.  This is really is biggest weakness besides not having a cc when not using uberfix.  He is one of the better chasers in game also with the fac that u can jump and lightining off towers and he does the most burst in the game.

Its the second time I read this thread today and I am still laughing about the title. Has Jona a better character than Zen_God? Think thats a similar question.

Your laughing about the title betrays a complete misunderstanding of critical tier evaluation concept. Critical tier evaluation is, essentially, an academic procedure based on analysis of statistically significant data. In other words, Jona vs Zen_God is subjective and speaks of nothing but their relative skill, but analyzing the feedback from 100 players will definitely point us in a direction of a tendency. To deny the significance of this data is to deny the very basics of rational thought, but somehow I see people doing it in every tier-based game...

Huh?  By better I mean stronger, superior.  Another way to look at it is more valuable to the team: does the burst, creep control, and cleansing power of Uberfix Occulus do more to help your team win than the stuns, armor debuffs and portal pressuring ability of Erebus?  How is that a funny question?  

"Has Jona a better character than Zen God?" IS a funny question because it sounds like you're referring to their moral qualities, not their playing abilities.  If you mean is Jona a better player than zen_god then the answer is no I don't think so, I think it's possible to give a definitive answer to that.  

Agreed 

Uberfix occ is just shy of tier 1 (but better than rook in that whole tier 1.5 category).  With uberfix on, you can use multiple builds, favor items, etc.  Being able to debuff erb or qot's groundspikes is huge.  If I can't trip you up on the timing, you can pretty much COMPLETELY negate damage spam QoT very easily.  And you can negate spit, etc (and at the same time regain mana).  Sedna can dispell spit [sic] 7.. occ can do it at 5 (side note - dumb balancing imo). 

Erb is still better, but I'd put my money on occ in a 1v1.  That said... erb will probably kill one of your teammates while occ is busy spamming damage... and then bs away or just tp out.  No interrupt = no tier 1. 

pewpew

Occ's Power is variable depending on Demigod choices of Both teams.

That is to say he can be as dangerous as any of the other Tier 1 DGs based on demigod choices.

eg: Occ with stun and interrupt teammate is ultra dangerous, because you have a setup for the double jump and can block a TP out.

Yet this is less awesome when you can chain stun him to negate his upfront burst damage and block his debuff remover.

So I would say given equally skilled teams, Occ can be better than LE, just not as often as LE is better than Occ.

If we were to compare LE and Occ directly.

Occ does win in one important area over LE, and that is lane control.

If your teammates can hold their flag, Occ can hold his easily by burning mana pots making victory by warscore easier to achieve.

LE wins in all of the Shenanigans categories though. That is to say escaping certain death, ganking, denying tactics, capping flags, being in the worst possible place at the worst possible time etc...
