Clove vs Tejo Fragging Analysis
Clove claims 4 out of 5 fragging metrics in the Clove vs Tejo matchup, establishing clear mechanical superiority with advantages in KDA efficiency, kill production, damage output. Our analysis of 97 ranked games reveals Clove consistently outperforms Tejo in direct combat scenarios. While Tejo manages to win the remaining metric, the overall picture favors Clove in gunfights. Tejo players should play around their one strength while minimizing exposure in areas where Clove dominates.
Avg KDA
1.36Clove
1.35Tejo
The KDA comparison between Clove and Tejo reveals an exceptionally tight contest, with Clove averaging 1.36 and Tejo posting 1.35. This razor-thin margin of just 0.02 demonstrates that neither agent has a systematic fragging advantage in this matchup. When facing each other in ranked games, success depends almost entirely on individual player mechanics, crosshair placement, and split-second decision making rather than any inherent agent kit advantage. Players on either side should approach these duels with confidence, knowing the statistical playing field is level.
Avg Kills
16.8Clove
15.2Tejo
Clove substantially outfrags Tejo in this matchup, averaging 16.8 kills compared to 15.2 — a difference of nearly 1.7 eliminations per match. When Clove faces Tejo, the data clearly shows Clove finding more fragging opportunities and converting them into kills. Tejo players should recognize this statistical reality and adjust their approach: play more supportively, focus on enabling teammates, and avoid ego-challenging Clove in situations where your team doesn't need you to take that duel.
Avg Deaths
18.3Clove
15.2Tejo
The death disparity between Tejo and Clove is stark: 15.2 versus 18.3 deaths per game. Clove dies 3.1 more times per match on average, fundamentally impacting their ability to influence rounds. This suggests Clove either takes unfavorable fights against Tejo or lacks the tools to disengage safely. Clove players must completely rethink their aggression patterns — prioritize information and utility over kills, always have an exit plan, and never take coin-flip duels against Tejo.
DMG/Round
149.2Clove
138.9Tejo
Clove significantly outdamages Tejo in head-to-head encounters, posting 149.2 ADR versus 138.9. This 10.3 damage-per-round advantage means Clove consistently wins the damage exchange in firefights, either securing kills outright or leaving opponents weak for teammates to clean up. Tejo players should avoid prolonged dueling with Clove — instead, look for quick picks with burst damage weapons or rely on ability damage and team crossfires to compensate for the raw gunfight disadvantage.
HS %
31.6%Clove
25.8%Tejo
The headshot percentage disparity between Clove and Tejo is substantial: 31.6% compared to 25.8%, a 5.8 point difference. Clove consistently displays far superior aim precision in this matchup, turning potential trades into clean kills and surviving encounters that would kill less accurate players. For Tejo, challenging Clove in a fair aim duel is statistically unwise. Success requires creating unfair fights — off-angles, utility combinations, multi-person pressure — where Clove's aim advantage cannot fully manifest.

Attack Side Breakdown
The attack-side comparison between Clove and Tejo reveals near-perfect parity, with Clove winning 46.9% of attacking rounds compared to Tejo's 46.0%. This negligible 1.0 percentage point difference indicates neither agent possesses inherent advantages when executing onto sites or pushing through chokepoints. When these agents meet on attack, success depends almost entirely on team coordination, execute timing, and individual mechanical skill rather than agent kit superiority.
From a tactical standpoint, neither Clove nor Tejo should adjust their standard attacking approach based on this matchup. Both agents can run their typical execute patterns, default rotations, and lurk timings without worrying about a statistical disadvantage. The data from 97 matches suggests that whichever player has better game sense, utility timing, and raw mechanical aim will win attack-side encounters — there's no agent-based shortcut to victory here.
For entry fragging specifically, both Clove and Tejo players can confidently take the first duel when executing onto sites. Neither agent's abilities create meaningful first-contact advantages over the other, so entry success comes down to crosshair placement, pre-aim quality, and jiggle-peeking technique. Whether you're playing Clove or Tejo, approach site entries with the same confidence you'd have in any other matchup.

Post-plant scenarios in this matchup are similarly balanced. Neither agent demonstrates superior spike defense or retake denial capabilities against the other based on our attack-side data. When the spike is down, focus on standard post-plant fundamentals: positioning for crossfires, using utility to delay defuses, and communicating enemy positions to teammates. The 1.0% difference is small enough to be statistical noise rather than a meaningful advantage.
Defense Side Breakdown
Defensive performance between Clove and Tejo is virtually identical, with Clove holding 54.0% of rounds on CT side and Tejo at 53.1%. This 1.0 point margin indicates both agents contribute equally when anchoring sites, retaking, or denying post-plants. Neither possesses defensive utility advantages significant enough to swing matchup outcomes.
Both Clove and Tejo can anchor sites with equal effectiveness in this matchup. Whether holding A, B, or mid on any map, neither agent's defensive kit provides meaningful advantages over the other. Site anchor decisions should be based on map knowledge, team composition needs, and personal preference rather than matchup considerations. The 1.0% difference is too small to influence site assignment choices.
Retake scenarios are similarly balanced between Clove and Tejo. Neither agent demonstrates superior retake utility, post-plant clearing ability, or clutch potential against the other based on our defensive data from 97 matches. When retaking against either agent, focus on standard retake fundamentals: utility to clear common spots, coordinated timing with teammates, and trading effectively. Don't adjust your retake approach based on whether you're facing Clove or Tejo.
Economy decisions and utility usage shouldn't change based on this specific matchup during defense. Both agents have comparable force buy success rates, full buy conversion, and utility effectiveness against each other. Make economy calls based on team needs and general defensive principles rather than Clove vs Tejo specific considerations. Your standard defensive utility timing and placement will be equally effective regardless of which agent you're facing.
Overall Side Analysis
Clove maintains a consistent but slim advantage across both sides of the map in this matchup, with 46.9% attack win rate and 54.0% defense win rate. While Clove is statistically favored regardless of map side, the margins are close enough that Tejo remains highly competitive and can win games through strong individual performance.
Map choice and team composition have minimal impact on this specific matchup outcome. Both agents perform similarly across attack-sided, defense-sided, and balanced maps. Pick based on personal comfort, team needs, and broader composition considerations rather than Clove vs Tejo specific factors. The slight Clove advantage doesn't change based on external factors.
For ranked climbing, don't overthink this matchup. The statistical differences are small enough that individual skill, team coordination, and game sense remain the primary factors determining outcomes. Focus on improving your fundamentals on either agent rather than trying to gain edges through matchup knowledge. Both Clove and Tejo are viable ranked picks with minimal matchup disadvantage.
Bottom line: this is one of the more balanced agent matchups in Valorant. Clove has a slight statistical edge, but Tejo is absolutely viable and can win through skill. If you're comfortable on Tejo, don't switch to Clove just for this matchup — the difference is too small to justify changing your agent pool.
Controller vs Initiator Dynamics
The Controller (Clove) vs Initiator (Tejo) dynamic creates asymmetric encounters where each agent brings fundamentally different tools to engagements. Clove's Controller abilities serve different purposes than Tejo's Initiator kit, meaning direct fights often feature non-equivalent utility exchanges.
Understanding how Controller abilities interact with Initiator counterplay is essential for maximizing your agent's potential. Clove's Controller toolkit may excel at certain aspects while Tejo's Initiator kit counters others. The Clove advantage suggests their role's capabilities translate better to winning these cross-role encounters on average.
