A Catherine with her Stormguard on should counter this very well, which means you just nuked your entire team. Besides, this build is so expensive you won't be able to get that many Shatterglasses unless the game lasts very long (~30min)

You're not taking into consideration that getting around 10+ Kills will yeild enough gold to purchase those items. I also had at least two Shatterglass and nearly a third at the time of the screenshot. And Catherine with Stormguard wouldn't stand a chance 1v1. You'd need to be 3v1 or 2v1 with some damage to win consistently. Otherwise you're just counting on his ultimate to miss. If he doesn't, you're screwed.

I hate to call your bluff, but lets look at this screenshot. You have 2 Shatterglass, 1 Frostburn, 1 Broken Myth, and Travel Boots. There are no tier 1 or tier 2 items in you build at the time of this screenshot. All the items your carrying can be seen in the lower left hand corner. Your gold is at 81, which can be seen in the upper right hand corner.

Now I'm not questioning the rest, clearly your team only has one turret and their vain crystal left, so it's very possible it ended the way you state, which is fine that's not what's in question. But you don't have 10+ kills in this screenshot, and you're further away from a completed Shatterglass in this screenshot than when you start the game with 350 gold.

That being said, in this screenshot your timer is at 20 minutes, so I don't buy the comment above that states it would take you 30 minutes, which is essentially stating that it takes us 10 minutes to earn 3000 gold, in which case we'd all be screwed.

Travel Boots + Frostburn + Broken Myth + 2x Shatterglass in the 20th minute just like my guide says.

If we hadn't won directly after this screenshot, I probably would have bought a 3rd Shatterglass by the 23rd-25th minute. Nowhere near 30 minutes.

Why wouldn't I just wait to fire my ultimate directly after Catherine's Stormguard begins its cooldown? Furthermore, if I find Catherine irksome, I can just kill the other 2 enemy heros. Catherine doesn't magically debilitate Joule.

His argument is basically this, stormguard has a 4 second duration, point is, she can reflect back a lot of damage by just rushing into your beam, and that its if hes dumb since he can
2. Stun you and cancel everything or
3. Silence you and keep you from using it
4. Also given the fact that your build lacks defense on an extreme, its not impossible that the enemy will focus you first
