Following the OB31 update in Free Fire, Chrono received a massive nerf and his Time Turner ability was severely limited. Players can no longer shoot at enemies who are outside the shield dome. Even the speed boost was removed.

As of now, Chrono has taken a back seat in the game. Gone are his glory days of charging into the fray and securing eliminations. With the new limitations in place, he now plays a more passive and defensive role in team fights.

This has led to a power vacuum in Free Fire. With the most overpowered character being benched, several others have risen to take his place.
