Head-to-head Dota 2 7.41f win rate from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41f, Techies wins the Chen vs Techies matchup: Techies beats Chen in 56.02% of 3,565 ranked matches.
Teamfighting against Techies is a nightmare for Chen. His entire strategy relies on grouping his creeps to apply pressure and body-block for his team, but this plays directly into Techies’ hands. A single Blast Off! or a pre-placed minefield can wipe out Chen's whole army before a fight even begins, leaving him with almost no contribution. This makes it incredibly difficult for Chen's team to push high ground or contest objectives. Without his creeps, Chen is mostly a single-target slow and a global heal, which isn't enough to compete with the area denial and massive burst damage coming from Techies.
