Why this works
Facing a Huskar dive is usually a scary moment, but with Chen as his backup, the attack often falls flat. The core of Huskar's strength is fighting at low life, where he gets immense attack speed from Berserker's Blood. Chen's whole purpose, however, is to keep his team healthy. A Hand of God heal can arrive at the worst possible moment for Huskar, boosting his health but cutting his damage output right when he needs it most. This leaves him in a vulnerable spot without the speed to finish his target, making him much easier to bring down. It's a fundamental conflict of interest between how the two heroes want to play a fight.
