Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Lina wins the Chen vs Lina matchup: Lina beats Chen in 53.13% of 4,284 ranked matches.
Thinking about picking Lina into Chen is usually about how you'll handle his army. Lina’s area-of-effect spells are a natural way to clear out his controlled creeps, slowing down his ability to group up and take objectives. This can force Chen to rely more on his global heal or ganking with a single powerful creep instead of amassing an army for a siege. However, Lina's spells have cooldowns that Chen can play around, and her squishiness means she’s an easy kill if his army catches her out of position. It gives Lina a slight advantage in fights, but it doesn't shut Chen down.
