How to beat Baba

A chaotic hex-caster who turns fights into a mess of silences, slows and stolen Spirit.

• 01Interrupt the Feed The Birds channel; the payoff only lands when it ends.
• 02Track Brew’s cycle. Don’t fight inside the puddle when it’s about to silence.
• 03Pressure Baba early, before Threadsap snowballs her Spirit.

1. 01Viscous out-farms Baba by ~13.8 last hits per match. Contest every orb and punish them for walking up to last-hit.
2. 02Viscous denies ~1.1 more orbs per match — keep shooting theirs.
3. 03Baba deals most damage with abilities. Trade right after they’ve used their main spell, and consider early Spirit Shielding.
