While Chrono and Wukong have active abilities, Hayato has a passive skill that automatically gives him an added advantage. Since he provides added armor penetration, he can be deadly in Clash Squad matches.

Chrono and Wukong’s major setbacks are their cooldown times. After the OB27 update, both their cooldown periods were significantly increased, hindering gamers from using their abilities more often.
