How this matchup plays
Picking Chen into a potential Alchemist game is a massive gamble, forcing your team into an all-or-nothing early push. The fundamental problem is Acid Spray; it's the perfect tool for melting the low-health creeps that make up Chen's army, neutralizing his teamfight impact and tower pressure. Even if early ganks are successful, Alchemist recovers with Greevil's Greed, hitting an item timing that your lineup can't keep up with. Once he has a Radiance, fights become a nightmare. Your whole army disappears in a cloud of acid and burn damage before it can contribute, leaving you and your team powerless to stop his assault.
