    2 bottles, viable?

    Basically infinity sustain for 1.2k gold, what do you guys think?

    How is it infinite?

    600 gold on top of a first bottle is a lot of gold on the sort of heroes on which you would prefer consumables over regeneration/stats (i.e. roaming heroes).

    When you're doing bad, stuff like bracers or vestments are probably more needed and when you are doing good 600 gold is a good chunk of gold for a bigger item, e.g. a ring of sorcery or a PK.

    I have a hard time seeing any situation where double bottle would be the obvious best choice but there certainly are situations where it's doable with success.

    bad on a hero like valkyrie, flint beastwood, arachna

    In other words, utility wise, beneficial for heroes who require mana and need to regenerate HP upon harassment?

    Generally 2 bottles almost never worth the invested gold.

    If you could bottle the same rune twice maybe.

    Haha. Good idea. But what if they have a flying courier?

    On-topic: 2x :Bottle: is practically never worth it. It can be useful on a few heroes... I guess. But that gold is almost always better spent on other items.

    Gold can be used more effectively in other items and besides once you have your boots and two bottles you only have 3 other spots for items, if you include a TP there's only two. Making you seem pretty useless in an items sense.

    Itīs fun and not that ineffective as people make it look like. Try it on hag, doc, pharaoh, those mana hungry gankers and make the lols happen.

    Not worth it at all... if you want more regen get a blood chalice or power supply. The greatest benefit from having a bottle is that you can refill it with a rune. With a second bottle you lose that advantage.

    Two bottles for one hero? Probably not.

    Though double flying courier + double bottle was actually retardedly OP back when you could refill bottles to full with courier. I remember seeing chu's team do this a long time ago with SS mid and Tempest jungle. It was a pretty amazing replay that I sadly don't have anymore. Only time chu's 300 apm was actually justified.
