Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41e win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Spirit Breaker wins the Chen vs Spirit Breaker matchup: Spirit Breaker beats Chen in 56.67% of 120 ranked matches.
Trying to build an army and control the map as Chen feels impossible because your main resource—the creeps—becomes a liability. Spirit Breaker’s Charge of Darkness can find and kill Chen almost anywhere, especially when he’s alone in the jungle trying to get his early timings. Chen has no way to stop the charge and is too fragile to survive once Spirit Breaker arrives, making him a consistent source of gold. Even worse, his converted creeps are easy to pick off during the constant fighting Spirit Breaker creates. This feeds away bounty and denies the early tower pressure that Chen needs to provide for his team to get ahead.
