Verdict

DJ Alok and Jota are extremely potent characters, but they have different uses for the battlefield. The latter is a great character for the Clash Squad mode, while Alok is an apt choice for almost every mode in Free Fire.

The DJ's constant healing ability and enhanced movement speed allow players to have a continuous HP advantage and a speed boost. It is really beneficial for playing any Free Fire mode.

Jota's ability also recovers HP, but only if players kill enemies with SMGs or Shotguns. Hence, only aggressive players who amass a lot of kills can find his ability useful.

Therefore, it is safe to say that Alok has a much more versatile and viable ability, making him a better option for players.
