This is probably just difference in playstyle but I feel like you don't throw out enough lasers. Your Wolf seems to be very close range, so throwing out some lasers now and then wouldn't hurt; considering how often you go for the DAirs, the hitstun from a laser would probably assist you greatly in that.

When you were fighting the Ike, I saw a lot of Side B's that were a tiny bit iffy, which usually resulted in a hard punish. In the Lucairo game, you were much more careful with them. Just know that although Side B is a beautiful, glorious kill when you land it, it is the literal definition of high-risk, high-reward.

Last thing I would probably comment on is the scarcity of UAir. UAir is (in my opinion) one of Wolf's best aerials. It comes out extremely quickly, and angles them to either Side B or into another UAir. Try using it a bit more.

Otherwise, I think your Wolf is good, if a bit bit close-ranged. You have a good understanding of shine and you waveland your blasters when you use them.

Don't get too ahead of yourself. Your Wolf still has a long way to go, and this is positive, you still have lots you can learn. Like jaytorgator said, use more wavelanded blaster, it's a good approach/spacing tool. I'd say continue to work on your fundamentals, and work on your combo game, pillaring is a very easy way to rack up damage.
