Trying to play from the trees as Monkey King feels awful against a Legion Commander. Your main escape tool, Tree Dance, is useless once she finds you and starts a Duel. Wukong's Command doesn't offer much safety either; Duel can pull you right out of the circle, and the soldiers you create will only give Legion Commander more chances to proc Moment of Courage. To make matters worse, all those units from his ultimate will supercharge her Overwhelming Odds, giving her a huge speed boost to chase down your team after the fight is over.
The whole game changes once Legion Commander gets her Blink Dagger. Before that, Monkey King can play his usual game of lane pressure and hiding, but once she has initiation, every tree becomes a liability. He's forced to play much more defensively, often needing a Linken's Sphere or other save items, which can slow down his own damage progression. Legion Commander, on the other hand, can confidently hunt for Duels knowing her target has limited ways to get away. Monkey King's best hope is to group with his team and pray they can burst her down before the Duel is decided.
