After comparing the abilities of both the Free Fire characters, it can be concluded that Clu is the better choice for ranked matches. Being aware of an enemy’s location is of major help as players are able to strategize accordingly.

After Clu’s buff in the OB28 update, players can effectively use her in both Battle Royale and Clash Squad matches. Sadly, Thiva’s ability restricts him from being of use in solo matches.
