Free Fire has several features that differentiate it from other mobile battle royale games, including characters with unique abilities. It also offers ranked and non-ranked battle royale modes, where these characters assist players and provide them with minute advantages over enemies.

There are 34 characters, except the default ones, Primis (formerly Adam) and Nulla (Eve), with special abilities that help players on the virtual battleground.

This article lists the best characters during ranked matches.

1) Hayato

Hayato in Free Fire

Hayato is a legendary samurai with a passive ability called Bushido. After equipping the character, the player's armor penetration increases by 7.5% with every 10% decrease in maximum HP. Once leveled up to six, the armor penetration increases by 10% with every 10% decrease in maximum HP.

This ability is a big help to passive as well as aggressive players while rank pushing.

K is a professor and jiu-jitsu expert who has an active ability called Master of All, allowing him to increase his max EP by 50.

In the Jiu-Jitsu mode, allies within a 6m radius get a 500% increase in the EP conversion rate. Meanwhile, in the psychology mode, he can recover 2 EP every three seconds with up to 100 EP. The mode-switch CD takes around 20 seconds.

He is the first character in Free Fire to have two skillsets in one ability and is one of the most potent and viable characters to use during squad ranked matches.

Jota in Free Fire

Jota has a primary level passive ability called Sustained Raids. This ability instantly restores 25HP with every SMG or Shotgun kill at a short cooldown of five seconds. At his maximum potential (level 6), he will help regain 40HP with each such elimination.

Jota has one of the most viable abilities for assisting aggressive and passive players during ranked matches, instantly recovering the HP of players with each kill.
