Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Slardar wins the Chen vs Slardar matchup: Slardar beats Chen in 54.80% of 469 ranked matches.
Trying to secure objectives and control the map with creeps is a losing battle against Slardar. Chen needs his army to apply pressure and take towers, but Slardar's whole design counters this. Slithereen Crush hits multiple units at once, making it simple to stun and clear out Chen's valuable persuaded creeps. More importantly, Corrosive Haze lets Slardar and his team see Chen at all times, preventing him from positioning safely in the trees. This makes it easy to find and kill Chen repeatedly, shutting down his tempo and turning his expensive army into a constant source of gold for the enemy team instead of a threat.
