I've seen a wildsoul try to do that. He became a worthless carry pretty damn quick.

if you're going dual alchemist bones you need

a team that can function 4vs5 which means either a sick lineup or playing with friends
you need full access to jungle and not sharing it with anyone
you need to have 2 alchemist bones be4 10th min
and you pretty much have to be a ranged carry, since most melee carries benefit way more from a ra than alchemist bones
and not to mention, none of your towers can be low hp because if they get tower gold advantage you're screwed

they're probably going to change it since they don't like ricing games, they're thinking about reducing the creep stacks in jungles from 3 to 2

yeah s2 is dumb as hell, ricing is a key part of HoN. its very difficult to do correctly and a good ricer can win u games. moving the game to be more "action-packed" is just stupid, thats not how dota worked, not how hon should work

I think its arbitrary. Pros dont use alchemist bones. let alone dual alchemist bones. Keep it for the pubs. Pretty sure s2 isnt going to do anything about it. seems balanced to me. if noobs let a noob rice for 40 ominutes with dual alchemist bones with ganking, they deserve to lose to the "op hand of midas" lmao...
