Small sample: this pairing has only 50 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
Playing against this lineup often feels straightforward because their timings are so mismatched. Chen wants to group his creeps and force objectives from the early game, creating deathball scenarios where his army excels. This game plan is the opposite of what Storm Spirit needs. Storm has to spend that same period farming items and levels, playing away from his team until he has the resources to zip into fights. A global Hand of God can sometimes bail out a deep Ball Lightning, but it doesn't fix the core issue. By the time Storm Spirit is ready to contribute, Chen's own window for dominating the map has usually closed.
