Some critique:
Don't use bair at low percents when you're gonna land on the ground, as you did in match 1 early on. That gets you punished, as it did this time.
If Sonic's doing that invincibility thing, use Firebreath or just run.
Around the :50 mark in match one, Sonic landed next to you and shielded. You shielded, and your back was to him. Don't forget we can Klaw out of shield. Would've done wonders there. If someone shields next to you, Klaw them.
When you powershielded before you lost your second stock, you should've Fortressed or Klawed OoS. Both come out much faster than nair.
I'm not sure if bair helps for momentum cancelling. I always just fair.
In general you seemed to run into silly stuff game 1, probably just because you're not used to Bowser's spacing yet.
Game 2--Around the 3:45ish mark, you upaired, and Sonic airdodged. Don't forget that upair is a GREAT frametrap. You can follow up with any aerial after that. Upair baits work really well because of this.
That said, you upair a bit too much. I usually save upairs for when there's NOT a platform directly beneath my opponent. See, if there's a platform relatively close to them, they can fastfall airdodge to shield, and then you both lose your frame trap AND suffer ending lag from upair. Pressure opponents on platforms instead with upsmash or uptilt. If they slip off, you can follow with ftilt, fsmash, or Klaw.
A little bit before that (I forget the exact mark, sorry!), you powershielded Sonic's upair and didn't do anything. When someone attacks you with an aerial from below while you're on a platform and you power shield, ALWAYS follow up with Fortress OoS. It'll pop the opponent up and let you either follow up or get off the platform.
In general, you played too aggressively. Sonic is a funky MU--he's moving around super fast, but don't let his gameplay affect your pace. Take it slower and remember Klaw beats just about everything Sonic does.
I'll get around to the rest of your matches. P1, you too. I just put more priority towards offline matches.
Yo Espy, your character sucks.
