KoriBabs is industry plant yuri because the people I've seen shipping it are throwing them together purely under the basis that they have both been in love with Dick. KoriBabs would be toxic yuri to the MAX. Kori would not like Oracle even at all. They would have beef completely unrelated to Dick in any way.

Kori comes from a planet where polyamory is normalized if not expected, she wouldn't think twice about Babs being Dicks ex, and I could see that being a factor for her to pursue a relationship with Babs if she thought that Dick and Babs were still in love with each other. That relationship would fall apart in 10 minutes because Barbara Gordon is a control freak that runs a fuckin pro cop surveillance state and *puts chips in people's brains*. And Koriand'r is a former slave who has fought tooth and nail for her autonomy and freedom and has had several arcs about overthrowing corrupt systems of oppression and control. They are fundamentally at odds on a moral and philosophical level.

I'm not even saying you shouldn't ship it because I do think that theres potential here but you have to understand that the relationship is not healthy even at all and Dick Grayson is barely a factor in their problems with each other. These are both complex and thematically rich characters who oppose each other in pretty much every respect and there is so much you can do with that!! But you have to acknowledge that they are, upon first meeting, not compatible. In order for anything approaching an actual relationship to happen something will have to give and they will have compromise and grow as people or they will fall apart spectacularly and take everyone else down with them, which is interesting and compelling in its own right.
