In Dota 2 7.41e, Chen and Keeper of the Light win 39.53% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 43 matches.

Small sample: this pairing has only 43 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

Picking these two supports together can leave your draft feeling fragile and without a clear plan. Both Chen and Keeper of the Light want to play away from the action in the early-to-mid game; Chen needs time in the jungle to build his army, while Keeper wants to safely push waves with Illuminate. This leaves your cores exposed. The team will also seriously lack reliable lockdown, making it difficult to set up kills or peel for allies under pressure. While Keeper of the Light can supply Chen with mana via Chakra Magic, it doesn't make up for the fact that they don't enable each other's core game plans and leave critical gaps in the lineup.
