How this matchup plays
Picking Bane into a Chen often feels like you're bringing the wrong tool for the job. Bane excels at using Fiend's Grip to lock down one important enemy, but Chen's whole strategy is to have an army of creeps that can just swarm and break the channel. Nightmare is also unreliable, as Chen can simply order any of his units to attack the sleeping target and wake them up. It creates a situation where Bane’s single-target disables are fundamentally countered by Chen’s board control. Admittedly, this matchup is rare, so the dynamic could be different in practice.
