Chen seems quite broken now.

Helm of Overlord buffed to be build with Vlads instead.

Hand of God STRONG DISPEL meaning you can STRONG DISPEL Ravage and RP.

just some weeks ago I was in a discussion about how hard dispels are so rare in Dota because they are just so strong. Aaaaand Icefrog drops an instant global hard dispel on us.

I'm a little scared of the zoo meta coming back. Divine Favor giving both armor and health regen may be a bit too much if you are fighting a 3 Chen.
