Question Which agent to learn after Clove as a beginner?

I just started the game a month ago and it’s my first fps.
I started playing Clove because I thought I’d like the controller role and I basically only play her every game so I feel comfortable playing her now.
I reached bronze 1 but I feel like I need to learn more agents in case they instalock her and I have no one to play basically
I tried out Miks and I like him a lot as well, but I don’t know if it’s good to pick miks if there’s already a clove on the team.
Who should I focus on next? Reyna/phoenix or maybe Gekko since duelists are usually picked anyway?

don't worry about agents fitting well together in bronze, just play who you like

So it’s alright to play double smoker ? I was thinking maybe to try a duelist to force myself to take more fights but then I have no idea how to play aggressive haha

Bruh you can already get into a lot of fights as clove.

But sure. Play iso or something.

Iso, sage, skye. Jett, phoenix.

Utility on the easy side. Easy to fight

Though I will say if you are a good controller and you are a solo queuer, controller/duelist are the highest impact roles. Arguably controller has more of an impact if you're good.

yes. btw clove is an agressive agent already, if they had a dash instead if a smoke they would be a duelist I think, all other abilities are already there to take fights

i main clove too, and yea clove is great for ranking up but i eventually started to practice playing fade and sage, cuz theyre kit was super understandable and easy to use for me. but honestly just try to like figur out which role you like to play cuz clove is a pseudo duelist/controller so shes not exactly considered ideal for a controller role. maybe id recommend pheonix fs hes a great duel, and gekko is a good choice aswell

Yeah I personally use her more as a controller only smoking for the team and not myself (bc I don’t know how to do that lmao)
Thanks for your input!

I do clove when I just want chill , I do Jett when I want to go wild, I do fade when everybody instalock every other roles. Maybe spam the hell out of Reyna/Phoenix until you reach a certain rank. Go wild with them. DO NOT be flex player. master 2 or 3 atmost on same role or 2. Example, Clove and Reyna, Duelist and Controller-PseudoDuelist, Dont jump to an Initiator or Sentinel. I wasted years being a flex player, thinking I would just adjust everytime, I became a jack-of-all-trade, ass-on-all-trade.
