    No idea if there's a steam group but there's an in game guild, how about everyone hops on the teamspeak server for 9pm and we'll see if we can get 10?

    Edit: Have a lobby open now, add me as a friend to see it (or if you have a bunch of boardsies on your friends list anyway it should show up under friends' lobbies on the play tab).

    We were playing AP, I'd be well up for some CM games if we have people who are comfortable playing it.

    I had suggested 9pm as nobody else was on at the time you were on (circa 8), then everyone popped on at around 20 past 8.

    How about 8/9 tonight?

    Yeah cool if I'm about, have football later and if I'm not in a coma afterwards I'll pop on. Do I have to school you mid Dreddy? Is that what I have to do? :)

    Ouch so thats like 8pm until 7 am some days, ah should still be good! Times weren't like that last year were they? Wish they'd start earlier than 12pm american time.

    If you sign up as an official pubstomp here everybody there can get their special compendium drops through your account watching, while still just inviting who you want. Or else they can just leave their computer auto-connecting.

    We only did the one. We went a man short and we couldn't get a 10th again so we left it at that. Was very onesided :(

    'Balanced' shuffle. WR suicide lane the highest level on the map for 10 minutes vs CK/WD. Should have just picked druid, ignore team, acquire farm.
    '?' summed up that game.

    lets talk more about vangaurd :)
    finally found a hero i think its pretty much core on - slardar! minimizes the damage he takes from sprint and makes him a tougher target to deal with in team fights. you kinda need to kill him fast as the cooldown on his stun is really low. so power treads - vangaurd - blink - bkb :)
    also used one on spectre the other night, went 15 - 0 - 22 with him :p i think the old school tanky radience build is better in public games as you will generally find your farm easier so you can turn him into an absolute beast. by skipping the heart after you get diffusal/radi you can get a big mean item like butterfly or mkb to make his ulti even more hilarious. its an old school build as you are levelling his dispersion instead of the damage skill but it means you can farm the jungle easier if you are under too much pressure in lane.

    you could also argue vangaurd is core on axe too but maybe rushing blink is better if you get tranquils. a former TCM player i know swears by vangaurd but hes also insanely aggressive and likes to dive a lot :p
    any other uses for this (fantastic!) item?
