The ability, however, has a cooldown of sixty seconds.VerdictBoth Chrono and Skyler have impressive active abilities. However, when one considers benefits and ease of use on the battleground, the former is a better choice for Free Fire's ranked mode than the latter.Chrono offers protection from attacks as well as increased movement speed.
