Grandmaster Bakasura Jungle

Hey, my name is AutoSpeed and I have been a Grandmaster + 3500 (MMR cap) in Conquest, Joust, and Duel in every recent season. I'm happy to share my knowledge of the game with everyone, and I appreciate any and all feedback!

• Star at the Fire Giant side Speed Buff (or Red Buff), and group up the jungle camps with your mid laner. Once the Red and Speed buff jungle camps are cleared together, head towards your remaining speed buff. Your mid laner should help you clear this buff camp. Finally, head towards the exp camp near the Tier 1 Mid tower, presume you will clear this alone.
  
  
• You now have 2 choices. You can stay in the Jungle towards the mid lane, looking for a gank on the enemy mid laner or clear the Mid-Harpies. The second option is to head straight to duo lane, and look for a gank on the enemy duo lane (and clear Scorpion). Heading to Duo lane has a greater risk, but much greater reward if successful.
  
  
• Bakasura has a passive early game, as your abilities are only for hitting minions, not gods. Use Eat Minion on the minions/jungle camps, and back up. Let the enemies pressure you now, you can fight them later when you have your ultimate Regurgitate and a few points in Butcher Blades
  
  
• Focus on farming as much as you can until level 5, as your ganks are very poor without team assistance or your ultimate Regurgitate. Luckily, your passive Insatiable Hunger gives you powerful farming speed
  
  
• Once you have hit level 5, and especially after you unlock your first item, begin with the priority of Buff Camps > Rotations > Harpies.
  
  
• Your fights have become much better after points in Butcher Blades with Regurgitate, which causes your auto attacks to hit incredibly hard. You lack range and ability damage, so you are limited to your ultimate for fighting. Farm when it is down, and look to fight the second it is up.

• Begins around ~14 minutes, or when most people have hit Level 12 and unlocked their Second Relic. Most enemy teams have gotten around to warding by now, and team fights become increasingly common. Most builds have started to show effectiveness.
  
  
• Bakasura only has one way of being relevant in the team fights - his ultimate Regurgitate. Make sure your use of it is as good as can be, and use Blink Rune to give yourself an opening. By rule of thumb, if 2 or more enemies are grouped together, it is a good Regurgitate use.
  
  
• When your ultimate is down, play to counter diving enemies, as your fight is hindered without it. You could look to go farm which you do very well, but only do if the fight is already lost, as farm is not worth loosing an objective.

• Almost everybody has hit Level 20, Fire Giant is the most important objective on the map. Starter items become unlocked at Level 20, which results in a damage/defensive spike. This means that everybody dies faster, and Team Fights are the most important thing.
  
  
• During Fire Giant skirmishes, look for when the enemy mage and hunter are stacked together. If your solo laner goes in, use Blink Rune and Regurgitate to cleave the both of them. You have the ability to kill enemy carries through relics, but your only time of relevance is when Regurgitate is off cooldown.
  
  
• When it comes to the siege fights, split push. You want to look for the 1v1 with the enemy jungler, and you can even cleave them and the Phoenix to kill two birds with one stone - if you are brave enough to do so.
  
  
• Lightly push the minion wave, Use Eat Minion, and your archers will stop the enemy jungler's blink (or push them back). Use this opportunity to Blink Rune in. Sometimes, you don't win the 1v1, and instead your goal is to distract the enemy jungler.
  
  
• It's completely fine to be patient, as you are still negating your counterpart (the enemy jungler). Minions from Regurgitate are capable of tanking the phoenix, so use this to your advantage.

Bakasura is a power farmer character, who disappears when his ultimate is down but punches hard when it is up. His gameplay is very linear, as you will be looking to Regurgitate and bail after it is down. This is a playstyle many have come to love, and I hope this guide helped you with your journey of Bakasura jungle.
