Top 5 Free Fire characters in January 2021

1. Alok (Skill - Drop the Beat)

In-game description: Alok is the world famous DJ, always ready to play music.

Alok's activation skill called Drop the Beat creates an aura of 5m radius, increases allied movement speed by 15% and restores 5HP for 10 seconds. But the effect is not cumulative.

Alok is arguably the best character in Free Fire thanks to its healing abilities, which is especially useful in moments when players don't have the power to restore their HP. The increased movement speed is another noteworthy factor.

2. Chrono (Skill - Time Turner)

In-game description: Chrono is a bounty hunter from another universe.

Time Turner creates a force field that blocks 600 damage from enemies. Movement speed of players and teammates increases 30% and 15% of range, respectively. Cooldown is 40 seconds and all effects last for 9 seconds.

Time Turner's skills are quite useful when the player enters the battle on the battlefield. Inside the force field, the player will take no damage for 9 seconds.

3. K (Skills - Master of All)

Description in the game: K is a professor and expert Jiu-Jitsu

K possesses one of the most unique skills in Free Fire. It increases the player's maximum EP by 50 and has 2 different modes:

- Jiu-Jitsu mode: Increases ally's EP conversion speed within a radius of 6m to 500%.
Psychology Mode: Recovers 2 EPs every 2 seconds, up to 150 EPs.

The cooldown of this skill is 20 seconds when switching between modes.

With the skill in Jiu-Jitsu mode, the player will receive an additional 5 HP per second. It is also quite useful in Clash Squad mode, as the player can buy mushrooms directly

4. Moco (Skill - Hacker's Eye)

Description in the game: Moco is an outstanding hacker.

Moco's Hacker's Eye skill marks enemies shot for 5 seconds. This information will also be shared with teammates. Using Moco's ability, the player can know the position of the enemy when shooting them. Players can use that to calculate their next move and prepare themselves.

5. Jai (Skill - Raging Reload)

Description: Jai is a SWAT agent.

Jai's skills got a significant buff in the OB24 update. Currently, when taking down an enemy, players will be able to automatically reload 45% of their ammo. However, it only works with certain weapon classes - AR, Pistol, SMG, and SG.

Raging Reload recovers ammo when the player takes down an enemy, which proves quite useful if the player prefers to use the aforementioned weapons.

Above are the top 5 Free Fire characters in January 2021. In addition, Jota and Hayato are also great Free Fire characters that are notable for their names. Both are player's favorite choice of character combinations, especially at higher levels due to their incredible abilities.

Wish you happy gaming.
