Why this works
Applying Corrosive Haze to an enemy makes them incredibly vulnerable to Chen's entire army. Slardar excels at initiating and holding a target down with Slithereen Crush, creating a perfect stationary victim for all the physical damage from Chen's creeps. Chen can also help set up kills with Penitence's slow, making it easier for Slardar to connect. This pairing creates a strong tempo, as any successful gank can immediately translate into pushing a tower with the surviving creep army. They both want to run at the enemy and force fights, and their kits complement that single-minded goal quite well.
