How this matchup plays
Thinking Chen's early army can run over the lane seems reasonable, but Tidehunter has the perfect tools to shut it down. Anchor Smash hits all the converted creeps at once and lowers their attack damage, completely neutralizing any push or gank attempt. Tidehunter is also too durable for Chen's units to kill on their own thanks to Kraken Shell, so he can't be easily bullied out. Later on, Ravage is a disaster for Chen and his entire entourage, punishing them for grouping up to fight. The fact that these two heroes don't even play well together says a lot; Tidehunter’s kit is fundamentally built to counter groups of weaker units, which is Chen’s entire game plan.
