Why this works
Drafting this pair often forces a difficult choice on your team's strategy. Chen excels by assembling his army of creeps early and applying immediate pressure, looking to take towers and control the map. Kez, on the other hand, is a melee carry who typically needs space and time to farm the items that enable his dueling potential. This creates a fundamental timing conflict. If the team groups for Chen’s push, Kez is forced into early fights where he is not yet strong. If the team plays slowly for Kez, Chen's critical window of power with his initial creeps is wasted, leaving the lineup feeling disjointed.
