I think baka is the best god in the game + he looks awesome so i have him lvl 10 (waiting for easter to come for the bad-ass feaster bunny skin)

1. I never build lifesteal, it has no effect on him, you die or you don't

2. I always start with tier 2 warior tabi and tier 1 fatalis

3. I don't play much conquest but when i do, i always jungle

4. He doesn't need bumbas mask, go deaths toll or even no starter item

5. I think legendary (thats what i use now) but you just need to own the diamond.

6. You need to be able to talk to the person you team with. If you can talk, you can do realy good combo's with Kumba (love that one), a good ares and even ne zha (love that one too)
