Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Invoker wins the Chen vs Invoker matchup: Invoker beats Chen in 54.27% of 4,811 ranked matches.
Trying to push towers with a creep army is often a problem for Chen in this matchup. Invoker has many area-of-effect spells that can efficiently clear out converted creeps from a safe distance. A well-placed Meteor or Deafening Blast can neutralize Chen's main source of pressure, forcing him to find other ways to impact the map. Even a Quas Wex Invoker can be a nuisance with Tornado and EMP, disrupting the army and draining its mana. While Chen's global heal can save an ally from a Sunstrike, Invoker's general ability to control and clear summoned units usually gives him a small but persistent advantage as the game progresses.
