Dota 2 Chen Guide - Chen Skill & Item Build

Before I'll present you this Dota 2 video guide for Chen made by Dotacinema, know that Chen is one of the best support heroes you can play with. The main reason for this is that he can support, gank and push, all in the same time. The downside for this hero is that you need to be very good at micro management, because you have multiple jungle creeps to command, all with their own abilities. Chen is often used in pro games, because played correctly can provide great advantage that is needed to win a game. If you come to Dota 2 from Heroes of Newerth, the corresponding hero to Chen in that game is known as Ophelia that is basically the same hero with different model and name.

The next item should be Arcane Boots, followed by Mekansm to provide greater healing and armour buff for your team.
