Why this works
Trying to set up a gank with this duo feels awkward. Io wants to empower a core with Tether and Overcharge, but Chen is busy managing his own army and doesn't benefit much from being the Tether target. Their kits also overlap too much on the defensive side; both heroes offer big saves and sustain, which often leaves the team without enough lockdown or burst damage to secure kills.
