THREATS TO CHEN WITH THIS BUILD Top

Details about threats

Be aware that most of the threats are based on 1 VS 1 fights if Tankmaster Chen fights together with an assassin or a support he can survive even the biggest threats

Also the late you get in the game the easier it gets to kill them 1 VS 1 even Diablo is a possible option in late game.

Also this build is made for teamfight, so all the big threats are nothing if you are fighting with a teammate

TANKMASTER CHEN BUILD Top

(Q) Flying Kick:

This can get you out of many difficult situations where your chances of death is high. The range is long and good, but after the kick you end up behind the enemy which can be a dangourous situation. This ability is very good if you want to catch one if the enemy team is on a retreat.

(W) Keg Smash:

First of all you always want to use this ability every time first before you use your breath of fire. Hitting both Keg Smash and Breath of Fire is important. The fire does damage over time for a short amount of time. Always make that combo that way at the end you make it by yourself without noticing it.

(E) Breath of Fire:

Always use this after keg smash and of course where you used keg smash. This is best used to collect regeneration globes from minions as it can damage a lot an also all the minions and mercenary at ones

(D) Fortifying Brew:

Use this as much as you can. This ability makes Chen the crazy panda he is and is also your main ability through the whole game. You can take almost any hit and lose no life while having your health regenerate at high speed, after drinking you cooldowns should be finished and then you can keep on using abilities on the enemy. Always engage enemies that don't have stun or disturbing abilities as they cant interfere with your brew drinking.

(R) Storm, Earth, Fire:

This gives you extra damage and actually more life in a weird way, also you can use Q to block enemies on retreat or use Q and W to get away if you are close to death.

TALENT BUILD DETAILED Top


Bottomless Mug - I find this one useful as it can provide you some extra brew that can be useful early game as you run out of brew easy but late game its not really needed since you be drinking brew all the time in late game. Normally I use this if I am against many stun heroes because the will disturb you brew drinking all the time so it is nice to have some extra in the bag.

Full Keg - Normally I wold not use this but it can be useful if you want to stun the enemy group for longer and can help you get them down as they try to run away.

Consuming Flame - This is not anything useful if you want to go hardcore tank. It only provides you with extra damage using fire breath and that is all.

Regeneration Master - This is my favorite especially because it gives you hardcore generation power late in the game which is a big plus for Tankmaster Chen also its easy to get regeneration globes as Chen can easily kill priest minions an mercenaries without losing to much life. I normally get a regeneration about 80.


Swift Reflexes - This can be useful against opponents with high basic attack as Illidan or kerrigan, but not what I would pick when I play Chen as a tank

Deadly Strike - Gives you a nice damage increase and will help you a lot when you are trying to finish fleeing opponents.

Amplified Healing - Use this and you will never complain about low life. This increase the amount of life healed a lot and together with the right support you will unstoppable. I always use this as it keeps me safe from dying in difficult battles.

Deep Breath - Makes it easier to make the great combo with keg smash but not the best choice as a Tankmaster since you need to focus on life instead of damage.


Keg Toss - I never use this I do not find it useful at all so toss keg toss away please.

Ring of Fire - This is only effective if you want to focus on getting some siege damage as it can be used to damage many minions at the same time and also defeating mercenaries. This is not what I would use.

Combat Stance - Waste of time even thinking about it this talent will only provide you with shield for some more time but since you can drink forever this is not needed at all so pleas refrain from using this.

Brewmasters Balance - This is defiantly the best talent upgrade Chen has it provides good survival chances and makes you hard to kill. While at or below 50 Brew gain 20 percent Movement Speed. While at or above 50 Brew regenerate an additional 10 Health per second and gives you extra per level. This one is the best talent out of all. This gives you advantage in battle even when you have low mana


Wandering Keg - This is not really useful unless you are being pushed a lot or you are playing the dragon shine map since you can push back the dragon

Storm Earth Fire - It gives you 3 heroes with half the life you originally have and good sustained damage they can body block the opponents that way he is easy to kill. This is also used for escaping in difficult situations. The cast time is an issue if you get disturbed it will not be activated and then you are f*cked.


Brew Strike - Can be used to speed up cooldowns and get some brew but not really amazing enough so try it if you have a good feel about it but I dont recommend it

A Touch of Honey - Nice effect as you can slow the opponent more for the team but not efficient enough to be picked as a talent so try it out if you want but I also do not recommend it.

Enough to Share - This talent is amazing it defense your team as you are fighting the other team and gives you the difference you need to win i always use this because i win my games with this.

Relentless - This talent is also very good it can save your life along with since your only weakness is disturbing effects form other heroes.


Combination Attack - Nice but not needed as you have pressure point so skip this one

Chug - This can be useful if you are tired of wasting time on getting brew again but if you play Chen right you never really need this unless you like to push a little extra.

Pressure Point - This is one of his greatest damage increase it provides you so much extra damage and can help you finish off opponents who is running away

Bolder Flavor - This is the best one it gives you so much extra shield that your chance of death is so low that even 3 heroes cant take you out anymore or its going to be difficult for them. Always go with this.


Untapped Potential - Since I do not support using wheel barrel I also dont support this the speed is so high which makes it difficult to control and you leave your team behind with no tank

Elemental Conduit - This is a nice upgrade as it gives you extra damage when using one of your other abilities. Always go with this one. Whatever ability you use you get an extra hardcore fighter. The most positive about this is because you actually are using you ultimate ability all the time without any cost at all.

Hardened Shield - Do not think about this one it cant provide anything at all. Waste of time.

Bolt of the Storm - This is the same as hardened shield it is not useful at all so also ignore this one.

MAPS Top

Maps that you should play with Chen

Tankmaster Chen can be used in all maps but is best at maps where teamfights happens a lot

I have marked the places where assassins could be hiding also Nova and Zeratul have cloak so be ekstra careful if they are on the opponents team

Also look out for Stun-Heroes they will disturb your drinking (if it happens all you need to is RUN RUN RUN!!! after that you reactivate it

- Cursed Hollow

In this map you need to be there for your team when you are going after the tributes trust me they will need you also ping so the rest of the team appears



- Garden of Terror

In this map you need to be as fast as you can to get as many seeds as possibly but always stay with your team yo need to take the damage from the giant plants and also damage from the oppenents



- Haunted Mines

In this map it's mostly important you are in the mines when they are going after the big golum but please go down there from the start as you are the tank, trust me your team isn't alone down there



- Sky Temple

In this map you just follow your teammates to the temples and then go forward like a hardcore tank and take all the damage you can while they are fighting the opponents



Other maps may need another build but this can still be used for example in Tomb of the Spider Queen you have a great chance of getting manu healing globes since the lanes are so close, so it's easy to move from lane to lane and in no time you regeneration level is so damn high that they think about it a second time before ther engage you in battle

Throw a comment if you want something added or changed :D

IN SOLO AND TEAMFIGHTS Top

SOLO FIGHTS

-Can survive 1 VS 1 or 1 VS 2 while drinking brew but make sure there is backup close, you will be killed if you are stunned og trapped, also late in game you might be able to withstand 3 heroes at the same time

TEAM FIGHTS

-Hardcore tank, there is a good chance that you are the reason why you win the teamfights as you can take all the damage while giving teammates ekstra shield also don't be afraid to take damage especially if there i a healer on the team

Throw a comment if you want something added or changed :D
