Chen Dota 2

 Chen is a hero that is good when laning, teamfight and split pushing.

During laning phase,

Chen can tame small camps like:

- The healing minion to heal the carry and to trade.

- The blue ghost to kill enemy with carry

- The flying bird to zap the enemy, dealing huge damage

- The white colored minion to burn the mana of enemy, in case they are heavily mana dependent

PS: It is also good to know that these small minions are good for trading and killing enemy. You can use these minion to tank and to provide vision of the enemy because of it's large hp pool.

During teamfight and pushing:

Chen can tame:

hellbear for pushing towers, when hellbear dies, it can provide damage to team.

golem to provide hp to minions and teammate

the minion that summons skeleton for pushing tower.

Centaur, good for teamfight. (How to use it: You can wait till its nighttime and camp in the enemy jungle, if they come, you can use centaur to stun them and hit them)

The wolf to provide extra damage.

If the enemy team has hero like PA, you can tame the ancient rumblehide to increase accuracy and attack speed.

During early phase:

When you see your team are not suitable for fighting in the early game, what you can do is:
- You can try to stack the camps and farm them, or you could go to the enemy jungle and tame their camps and walk away.

- Chen is a very team mate dependent hero, means if the team is not ready to fight, Chen has to tame camps that are for pushing.

What if the team is not ready to fight?

Chen can tame minions to split push, one of the best minions are ancient black dragon, can kill creeps fast with its fireball and hellbear, golem is pretty good to increase hp.
