Small sample: this pairing has only 33 ranked matches in the current window, so its win rate will swing more than deep-sample pairings as new games come in.
Why this works
Grouping up for an early tower push often reveals a core timing conflict. Chen is ready to apply pressure with his converted creeps right away, but Dragon Knight needs his Elder Dragon Form and a few items to become a real siege threat. This mismatch forces a difficult choice: either the team pushes before Dragon Knight is truly effective and the attempt fizzles out, or they wait so long that Chen’s initial power spike has passed. Since both heroes are counting on a successful mid-game push to win, a failed attempt leaves the draft with very poor scaling and few ways to recover for the late game.
