How viable is Bakasura in the solo lane?

I've seen solo Baka multiple times recently. I was really confused at first. Seeing that Baka was a challenge when I face him as Sun Wukong earlier, I decide to try Bakasura in the solo lane. Fist time was a success. Second time was a complete failure. Both were again a Chacc.

His gives him really good sustain but unlike other common solos, he lacks any wave clear. He has to AA them down and not take too much damage from the other solo-er.

All know is that its fun to lane as Bakasura but can he stand up to the top solo-er such as Chacc, Ra, Sun Wukong, Hades(?), and Tyr?

If You didnt know already, baka solo was sarted by team cloud 9 xaliea when he did it in a tournament, people were really confused and thought it was jungle, but it was solo and in That Game xaliea wrecked and people started doing it.

i see it in ranked frequently, So i think its slowly making in to the meta.

I guess it could work, but why choose Baka when you could choose someone with the same if not better sustain, and far superior wave clear.

If this is your argument then I gotta disappoint ya, because there were good players doing that before Smite even had a pro scene.

He counters a lot of tanky solo laners that stack armor as an early item. There is no decent way to EARLY itemize around baka, since the base true damage on his butchers blades are just ridiculous. He's an anti-bruiser without being a mage.

What Raven said, plus, he is one of the most punishing solo laners in the game. One second of misposition and you are dead. And we all know what happens if Baka gets fed...
