Some general thoughts on our bear and bird so far after some hours playing him and a few less against:
>single shot Breegull Blaster lob is surprisingly effective for offstage snipes to edgeguard, combined with egg bomb he can be a nuisance to recover against
>Breegull Blaster sustained feels very useless on any stage with platforms or against much of the cast with other projectiles/reflectors/divebomb down airs, but can be really annoying against certain characters
>saving Wonderwing to be exclusively a kill move is optimal use for it, keeps it out of your opponent's general awareness, unless you happen to be at high percentage then you might as well spend all your feathers, dying with lots of feathers is like losing with lots of meter in a traditional fighter, spend the meter before you die but don't waste it if it won't kill
>egg bomb to control a bit of space is nice but you can pretty consistently pick it up with a flick back towards it and A, also you can roll back to it, it can be useful hurling it offstage at people
>his worst matchups will likely be rushdown characters because his moves tend to come out slowly and he moves slow in the air
>zoners as well may be difficult to navigate with his airspeed but he can at least get his invincible kill move through projectile walls if close enough
>for whatever reason, I've SDed more as Banjo at the ledge than I think any other character and I don't know why, he just sometimes feels clumsy
>dash attack sometimes leads to things
>dthrow uptilt sometimes hits the quick mash
>I think there's shenanigans to be explored with drag down neutral air, it doesn't seem to combo into upsmash but there could be possibilities
>if you're playing online, Wonderwing is and incredibly gratifying instant-win button against people who play two minutes matches for Sudden Death, only to get Wonderwinged, so satisfying
Overall his toolset feels weird but once I got in the driver's seat more and in command and learned the moves it started feeling better. Very fun to play and glad I'm obligated by fandom to play him. I think he's gonna get run over by top characters like Joker but that's alright.
