I find that sange and yasha is a far better alternative when using this build as it offers you max ms when you use dagger/mom it also proves you with an aditional 144 hp from str and maim which has great synergy with moms attack speed. further more you can dissasemble it later to build into manta(although i usually prefer getting 6 slotted before i do this as otherwise you waste sange due to slot issues) and provides you with a minor amount of extra dmamage and attack speed. none of these things are provided when you build vanguard and the buildup for sny is really quite easy. As a final note if you go treads>mom>sny you come online much faster as you can solo kill any isolated support the moment you hit 6 as the ms boost comes online far sooner.
as for skill builds (final note my ***) when i choose to go mom spec i generally build as follows
1/1/3/1 if getting harrased badly or 1/2/2/1 if doing well and max desolate before or after dispersion depending on how well i do past 6 maxing dagger last as you still get around 470ish ms with level 1 dagger, the damage is mediocre and the mana cost almost 1/2 of your mana in early levels.
as for items its always treads>mom>sny then whatever i need for who im vsing so mkb bkb bfly basher or heart. for a while i really enjoyed building basher on spec as a core right after sny but as of 6.82 i've found that getting a heart right after is better as surviving fights allows you to acquire gold and exp far faster than getting 2/3 kills a teamfight and dying.
as a final final note now that crimson guard is in the game vangard spec may be far more viable its just in my experience vang was an item that fell off too early and had minimal impact where as sny can be disassembled and maim is always good. i have yet to try it out but if no one else is getting it and its early game i suppose that would be a decent alternative.
final final final note
My steam name is Garlic sauce so you can check out my spectre games on dotabuff i would recommend looking at the time between September 20th onward as i started playing spec a lot more just prior to 6.82 and started experimenting with my builds a lot during this time.
edit: i actually recommend you take a look at the comments on page 4
