What the item does
Active: Replenish

Radius: 1200. Movement speed bonuses from multiple pairs of boots do not stack.
How I decide
«Mana is for the next useful trade, not a pretty bar.»
Ruslan UkrainskyiSpeaking through Rodya
- 01 Situation
- My ally and I are still alive after the fight, but lack mana for our next combo.
- 02 My decision
- I gather allies within Replenish's radius and refill resources before a move. On Witch Doctor, I keep mana for control, Maledict and healing.
- 03 What I avoid
- Activate the boots alone on full mana, then start a fight with the team lacking resources.
When I would buy it
Early, to cover shared mana costs; I choose the later upgrade around how the team is playing.
Components
Components from Valve's recipe. Repeated parts are marked with quantities.
Boots of Speed
Ring of Basilius
Wizard HatWhich heroes I would try it on
Examples based on mechanics. The role, opponents and team plan determine the final choice.
Rubick
Repeated Lift, Fade Bolt and stolen ability casts need mana; Replenish helps prepare the next combo while close to the team.
Witch Doctor
After a trade, I need mana for Cask, Maledict and healing. Arcane Boots help me and my allies keep making plays when mana is the priority rather than health regeneration.
Dark Seer
Regular Ion Shell and Surge casts use mana before the fight even starts; a group mana restore helps maintain lane tempo and prepare the team's next move.
What to compare it with
Similar purposes do not make items interchangeable. I compare effect, price and timing.
