Why this works
Spreading the map to farm becomes much safer for your other cores. The threat of Dawnbreaker's Solar Guardian landing on an ally is already a huge deterrent for ganks, but adding Chen to the mix means that same play can also be backed up by a global Hand of God. This makes the target extremely difficult to burst down before help arrives. If Chen is physically present, his converted creeps offer slows and stuns to lock enemies inside Dawnbreaker's landing zone. This global rescue potential allows your team to play more aggressively across the map, which often translates into better objective control during the mid-game.
