I'll bite
Yes, you should use a leader, braid will cut your hand.
This discussion is a little like what is the best car.
For leaders on my big rods I use 50# big game or 60# orvis fluorocarbon with a swivel on the line side and a breakaway clip on the plug side.
For knots I use palomars, the important thing is to use a knot you can tie well.
The knot never fails unless you have a fish on that is big, your favorite plug that is the only thing that is picking fish and you are a mile away from your car.
