How this matchup plays
Fights involving both heroes often come down to a test of timing and spell placement. Warlock can make Chen's life difficult by linking his entire zoo with Fatal Bonds, turning the creep army into a liability. The Golem also provides a strong answer for clearing out those units. On the other hand, Chen's Hand of God is an excellent counter to the slow, area-of-effect damage Warlock relies on. If Chen's army can get on top of Warlock before he casts his ultimate, the fight can swing the other way entirely. Neither hero has a definitive advantage, as they both possess the tools to directly answer the other's primary game plan.
