Comparison

When we compare the abilities of both the characters, at first glance, Kla appears to quite useful. However, upon closer inspection, many players realize that a fist fight is highly unlikely to occur. The character though, would come in handy in the early parts of the game, when most of the lobby is frantically running around looking for a gun.

On the contrary, Hayato’s ability is slightly more beneficial to players in the long run, because when their health decrease, it causes armor penetration to increase. The drawback with Hayato though, is that when health is restored, the armor penetration decreases.

Choosing one of the two, at the end of the day, would come down to personal preference. One thing that must be conceded though, is that they can both equally powerful in the hands of the correct Free Fire player.
