Morphology
The phrase is a straightforward adjective + noun composition: 'sussy' (suspicious/shady) + 'baka' (foolish person), so the basic sense 'suspicious fool' is directly derivable from the constituents. It is internet slang with playful/meme connotations that learners might miss, but the core meaning is compositional and thus transparent to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Sussy baka comes from internet talk and games: sussy is a short form of 'suspicious' used in online chats, and baka is a Japanese word for 'fool' that anime fans used jokingly. One popular story says people put the two words together to tease someone who seems silly and untrustworthy, so today it means 'a suspicious fool'.
