Free Fire OB27 is the next big update of 2021. In this patch, Garena is going to buff a lot of older skills... and the character who gets the most from this patch is probably Wukong. In this article, we would list out everything you need to know about this new version of the monkey king.
1 - Massive buff to Wukong's Camouflage
Camouflage Old version: Turn into a bush. Lasts for 14 seconds and has a 200 seconds cooldown at the maximum level. You must stand to use this ability and during its duration and if you attack, the ability would end prematurely. Camouflaged characters are immune to damage - you can also move and use items.
Camouflage New version: Turn into a bush. Lasts for 15 seconds and has a 150 seconds cooldown at the maximum level. All the other requirements and details are the same... but the cooldown of the ability RESETS whenever Wukong gets a kill.

2 - How strong is this ability now?
It is pretty baffling that Garena has decided to apply such a huge buff to this ability. Camouflage is already overpowered in its base form, with the only thing to balance it being the long cooldown. With the cooldown removed altogether, Wukong players would get a "get out of jail for free" ticket every time the ability is up (which would be pretty often, as it refreshes every time Wukong scores a kill).
There are just too many ways to abuse this ability... and the duration is so long you can escape pretty much everything. While being an invulnerable bush, you can just pop a medkit and still have ample time to get to cover.
3 - How to counter Camouflage?
You would need to focus on the screen more than ever before as a moving bush can be hard to notice in certain parts of Bermuda and Purgatory (A bush would be pretty out of place in Kalahari, so there's that). You can also try to get to places in which there are no bushes around like indoor structures or anywhere with a floor.
If your enemy turns into a bush right in front of you, you can either counter it with your own skill or run away and wait for it to expire. Don't stand around, as the enemy could start firing at any time.
