Sun Wukong is incredibly good at pillaging, and unlike a naval raider unit, he can target all land tiles. This benefit is coupled with his 6 and ability to ignore terrain penalties, allowing him to move from Farm to Farm, from Mine to Mine, and so on, pillage, heal, and then attack a city or unit. If you become the Suzerain of Wolin, he can rapidly earn points and propel you toward a Domination Victory.
In addition, Sun Wukong's stealth mechanic makes it very difficult for your opponents to see him, even while deep in their territory, unless they have a unit right next to him. On top of his 50-turn Lifespan and capability of killing enemies swiftly, this makes him one of the most deceptive and long-lasting Heroes of the batch.
Note that Sun Wukong's Swift ability doesn't apply when crossing Rivers, but it applies to all other terrain and terrain features.

== Trivia ==
* Sun Wukong's icon is the unremovable circlet he was tricked into wearing when he served the monk Tang Sanzang on his pilgrimage. The circlet could tighten and cause headaches whenever a certain sutra was chanted, allowing Sanzang to control Wukong when needed.
* Sun Wukong's relic is Ruyi Jingu Bang, his magical staff.
