Verdict

Deciding between Jota and DJ Alok in Free Fire is a tough job. Although both of their abilities are focused on healing, how they work is radically different.

Jota recovers HP by shooting opponents, while DJ Alok can trigger his ability to heal the entire squad. This makes selecting a clear winner difficult. Players will have to decide for themselves whom to choose for CS mode.

However, when pitting both characters against each other based on utility, DJ Alok's Drop the Beat provides more tactical uses than Jota. Since it heals the entire squad and provides a movement boost, it has more value in general.
