In Dota 2 7.41e, Chen and Sven win 37.21% 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

Putting Penitence on a target Sven has stunned is a simple and effective way to secure kills. The slow and damage amplification from Chen's spell give Sven a much easier time connecting his attacks, especially once he has God's Strength active. This early kill threat lets the duo play aggressively and take control of the map. Later on, Chen’s global heal can be the difference-maker that allows Sven to survive being focused, letting him get his damage off in a critical teamfight. The extra bodies from Chen's creeps also provide useful auras and lockdown to support Sven's frontline assault.
