Why this works
Trying to land a key Fissure often feels impossible when Chen’s entire army is clogging up the lane. This core mechanical conflict extends to their overall game plan. Chen wants to dominate the early game, gathering his creeps to push towers and force fights while he's strongest. Earthshaker, on the other hand, usually needs a slower start to farm his Blink Dagger before he can reliably initiate. By the time Earthshaker is ready to go, Chen’s window of power may be closing. This timing mismatch means your team either lacks the early pressure Chen provides or the big teamfight ultimate that Earthshaker brings later on, making it difficult to execute a coherent strategy.
