Anyone got any good tips on how to play Chen?

Get em fancy lightning bat in the small camp if you can, proceed to nuke the shit out of enemy mid.

Zoned out enemy mid with 1 creep constantly harassing him. Also, grab em stun centaur and then level 1 smoke gank anywhere, gg first blood any day.

Try push towers as fast as possible I guess since Chen gets weak, fast and lategame he just doesn't scale for shit. Just like Treant unless you build treant carry. 

He's just simply amazing get a fast Mekansm with his ult heal, few pushing creeps and you should really be able to push really hard and really fast, giving your team excellent map control and gold advantage.

Don't listen to this man, the proper way to play Chen is to get fat. His core items are HotD (moar creeps), Armlet (because pink glowing hands) and big damage items.

I was merely mentioning a good guide on how to play Chen when you're newish to the game.

HotD is for pro micro players obviously and Armlet is core on any hero because Armlet is the best item in game, this however is an item you should build on any hero though without ever asking. (Thought this was common knowledge so sorry for not mentioning Armlet.)

I think puppey was trolling, but in a normal game if you have a carry player with HotD you get him to share unit control and that way give your (must be asian to micro) Chen player one more creep to micro.

Hell no that build is legit for Chen. Refer to the in-game guide from Puppey yo.

I like getting HotD and Necronomicon but my micro is just not good enough really.

[rufio]

hotkey, creeps for use of skills, and enable left-ctrl use in options for all units under hero controll for movement.

Another nice game that we should have lost because we had 0 team work. Just me as sniper with 16 kills and sven with 21 got farmed. And we had decent early game with Nightstalker who had 12 kills.

If you are doing THAT well individually, I think it's almost as good as solid teamwork.

It does the job, doesn't it?

[[ptx]]

Not really. Individually you might be killing them left and right, usually by one or two. You still lose, when they win that one fight and push into your base, whilst your team scatters after every win to jungle/farm or whatever.

Did a Doom + Windrunner on top lane with my friend. We managed to steal all the farm from the enemy and keeping them away from the lane due to constant harass. Sadly our team "sucked" so bad that we got pushed on all the lanes that except the lane that we had control over. So we switched lanes  and pushed 3 towers in a row. But yeah, our team were so bad at team play that we got squashed so hard.

It can. But the other team had lots of wards, moved round as a group on individual targets to ensure kills and really did very little wrong. The simply fact was early game, Nightstalker is a bitch. Mid game I pick up damage and attack speed + finish off any targets and then late game Sven with BKB just destroys everything. I don't think Sven had a single kill till the 30min mark. Then he rockets to 21 kills.

We pretty much won purely on the backs of OP heroes.

Sniper, Sven and Night Stalker are OP heroes?
