This build is a mixture between carry doom and utility doom.
If youre going utility doom you sould build a blink --> ags --> shivas --> ethereal
If youre going carry doom you should build a shadow --> radiance (if you got a lot of farm you should go for this first) --> assault --> bkb (or heart first) --> heart --> abyssal
You should always go for midas --> phase (on carry) or tranquil (on utility) --> drums
Im not a good player at all so if you think this is a bad build i qould like to now the why so i can get better.
It's a shame no one knows how lvl death works. If the it's at level 4 it will deal extra Damage if the hero's level is a multiplier of 3 (3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24) or if they are lvl 25. How is that so hard to remember? Great guide though. Btw Shadow Blade will become useless if you over use it :(
Aghanim's Scepter is highly situational. It definitely doesn't synergize with Shadow Blade so it's 1 or the other, leaning mostly to the Shadow Blade as Doom is better as a DPS carry with his extraordinary farming speed.
Shadow blade is good if you have no other real initiation in the team. And aghanim's is definitely situational (a bit more useful after 6.78, but still situational).
Id say EARLY ITEMS > Vanguard / Shadow Blade > Radiance / Assault Cuirass > BKB.
If you get good enough farm you can go straight for radiance.
Shadow Blade and Aghanim's Scepter as core?!??!?!!?
A quick radiance into Assault Cuirass is so much better. Shadow Blade is not an escape. Your build leaves you with mediocre right clicks and the aghanims buff on doom is just not worth the 4k you spend on it. The stats aren't terrible but doom NEEDS armor, which it doesn't provide.

And Radiance into Assault Cuirass is possible but it really depends, wouldn't make it the main build in a guide, would put Assault Cuirass into luxury and Radiance into situational I suppose.
