How this matchup plays
Trying to pin a hero down with a pack of creeps is a core part of Chen's game, but Vengeful Spirit often unravels the whole play with one button. A well-timed Nether Swap can pull Chen's target to safety, completely foiling the gank and leaving his army stranded. This dynamic extends to teamfights, where Vengeful Spirit's job is even simpler: swap the fragile Chen himself into the front lines. A dead Chen usually means his army quickly follows. While Chen can still impact the game from afar with Hand of God or by pushing lanes where Venge isn't, her ability to directly punish his positioning and rescue his targets gives her a consistent way to disrupt his plans.
