I recommend viewing some of Nicks tutorials to get a better idea of substitution usecases.
www.joomlapolis.com/support/tutorials
There's not much I can suggest. Using more complicated substitutions is rather difficult. Have to understand the $user object passed to the substitutions is established by PHP. For example when viewing a users profiles the $user object is assumed that of the user displayed. So you need to change your IF to be based off #me or myid instead of #displayed.

I played a lot with substitutions and followed all available examples and tutorials... thats why I am clueless about the simple IF OR problem.
I assume the following Syntax is correct...
[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered" OR usertype="Editor"] The displayed User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if]
It does not produce any output?!
EDIT:
Also followed this Incubator discussion , and tried the same in Joomla article and CBcontent Bot. Same issues. Also the alternative pipe-character Syntax did not work for me.
By the way, In the discussion you suggested to use "gid" instead of usertype names. I could not find an example how to check the groupID value. Your substitution tutorial does not list it.

Please try the below.
[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered" or usertype="Editor"]The displayed User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if]
Was able to confirm the above is working fine. Seams the OR must be lowercase, have updated the substitution guide to reflect this.

Delimiter field works now! 
[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered" or usertype="Editor"]The displayed User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if]
Article with CB Content Bot 1.0.2 works now.
Hint: Remember to change user="#me" in this particular case
{cb: [cb:if user="#me" usertype="Registered" or usertype="Editor"]The currently viewing User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if] }
[cb:if user="#displayed" usertype="Registered" or usertype="Editor"]The displayed User is of type: [cb:userdata field="usertype" /][/cb:if]
