Ask me some Chen questions please! :D

OMG

awesome!!!

questions:

1. a lot fo the time id lose track of who or what i was controlling. how do you avoid this?

2. using skills on creeps is indvidual but move orders are not?

3. i dont know what time but i had 3 centuars and a hell bear and i killed someone. i have no idea how i did this. all my focus was on getting the skills off from each unit and my chen. it was only afterwards that i realized that he was already dead. is there an easier way to micro?

4. i did not know chen could rosh. what creeps should i use? when and where?

5. a WHOLE lot fo my time was spent trying to organise a push but most of the time it didnt happen early cause my team needed hp or mana. when we tried to push as 5 the enemy would be ready. is there a way to use chen safely with split pushing so i dont have to rely on my team so much?

6. my fingers hurt so ******** much. thats not a question thats just me telling you .... chen is physically painful to play. how u do it i have no idea.

I'm no Chen player because I don't have the skills to put out a good micro, but I would like to congratule you Angelo for the great initiative here to help people with constructive criticism and good advices. Maybe I can try to play Chen later with some extensive training, with a question or two.

This champ is so bad. Just pick Enchantress against him, and kill him with his own creep at level 1. Or just Devour his creeps. Death Pact, Hand of Midas. Now jokes aside, the reason why Chen is so different compared to Enchantress is because they cater towards different enemy line-ups.


You pick Enchantress to shut down a lane. Easiest way yo do so is to get a harpy, send it to a lane, start spamming chain lightning all over. This however means that you missed your window of opportunity to gank early yourself. Means you can get a quick midas, which is good, because it benefits Impetus, both in timing and damage (thanks to the extra attack speed).

Enchantress is really good against a team of right clickers, thanks to Untouchable (really good against Legion Commander, Faceless Void, amazing against Tiny) because they cannot kill you thanks to the slowed attack speed. Can transition very well thanks to Impetus because it deals pure damage. Want to deal 1k damage as early as 15 minutes in? Get a Force Staff, Impetus once, hit again and force. Second hit should deal 400 damage on average thanks to the extra force damage at level 1 Impetus. Get some HP and mana on her, and she becomes a threat. (orchid and atos come to mind).

Chen however, is very different. You pick Chen to push and that's it. With the 4 creeps you can get, you can have a lot of auras and control in fights. Chen, however, cannot just kill a lane. If he decides to help a lane, he'll stay level one for a long time. And you better start praying for that wildkin so you can farm the stacks, because if that doesn't happen, you're done. You become very susceptible to ganks because you're level one. Walking creep converter. His aghs upgrade is infinitely more useful than bambi's. Granite aura is too good. Lizards just shred towers. Dragons are meh, splash is decent I guess.

Can gank early as well, but less effective. Needs level 3 to be as efficient as bambi at 1 without test of faith. Hand of God is insane as well, especially if you have aghs. Can save allies or turn around fights with the press of a single button.

Point is, neither are better, each fits a certain situation. Just my 2 cents. Please no copy pastarino excepy Angelo if he wants to use it in his guide. Nah, you can copy pasta it all over. Don't really care.

With what heroes/team would you pick chen? With what wouldnt you?

Against what heroes/team would you pick chen? Against what wouldnt you?

hey dude any chance u could watch this game?

(sorry to hijack thread)

Which is worth more (Which would you rather save in a fight), your hero or your creeps?

It's always better to save your hero, or any hero with E. The only time I ever save my creeps are if I'm split pushing have aghs. Then I will bring them to me when someone goes on them to stop the push. If they are good creeps and about to die (Like 2 ancient rock golems) I will ult to save them during the 3s delay. Otherwise I will never use my E on a creep in battle, or micro my creeps over my hero.

Your creeps are there to tank, and die. Occasionally they stun, slow, trap, etc... But most of the time they're just tanking tower shots and zoning heroes.

Tell me about ancients.

Tell me about their benefits and usage. how should i use each of them?
