Why this works
Putting a big army next to Wukong's Command seems like it should work, but the heroes' game plans rarely line up. Chen wants to group with his creeps and apply pressure to towers very early. This timing is awkward for Monkey King, who usually needs more farm and levels to be effective. He would rather use Tree Dance to find opportunistic kills and build his items, not commit to a slow five-man push. The two heroes end up wanting to play the map in completely different ways. By the time Monkey King is ready to teamfight, Chen's own power spike from his early creeps is often long gone.
