yeaaah not really. there is a reason trinity is the core item on him in competetive, including korea. of course, in a direct damage comparision, bt wins with a q doubleshot ... if fully stacked. but thats the thing. stacking it takes a while, and its unreliable. on top of that, trinity also has the rage passive, crit chance, attack speed, and hp. it gives better kiting. of course there is another thing. bt wins in q doubleshot, but what if its a full burst round? well, his w has weaker and his e has no scaling. while trinity gives you a 140 damage buff on each of those (assuming level 8, where you can get it, earlier is usually hard). in fights trinity will outdamage bt.
