If the abilities of the two characters are compared, Skyler is much more powerful than Jota. However, the latter will be a lot easier to handle, which is what a newbie needs.

Users need to have a good game sense to be able to use Skyler successfully, and beginners might find the process a little intimidating. Since Jota helps with health recovery and is devoid of a cooldown time, he is more suitable to a beginner.
