Overview

Banjo and Kazooie is a jack-of-all trades, master of none. Banjo has two projectiles, both of which cover different gaps - Rear Egg provides excellent trapping pressure and allows him to play neutral more effectively with one backing him up, while Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster allows you to set up some smaller traps and tech coverage that can also stance shift into its gun mode to use as a combo tool. Banjo's neutral is primarily made up of attempting to use his few safe pokes in Forward Tilt and Down Tilt to outrange the opponent, as well as utilizing the previously mentioned Rear Egg to make some of his options generally safer. Banjo primarily gets kill through either using Down Throw into Up Tilt for fast mashes and Up Smash for slow mashes, as well as spacing with moves like Forward Aerial and confirming into Wonderwing

Overall, despite Banjo's array of tools, he mostly centralizes around a zoning/trapping game due to the absurd strength of Rear Egg - however, it's also due to the generally poor quality of some of his other tools. One of Banjo's least desirable attributes is his safety on shield, as he only has 1 normal that's less than -10 on shield. This leads to him having issues when it comes to safely throwing out moves, as many of his moves can be easily punished on shield if not perfectly spaced by the Banjo player. As well, he struggles with damage output, as many of his moves output low damage and don't have any significant combos out of them. The main two options he has to alleviate this are combos with his two projectiles - however, the two both encourage very different styles of play, with Rear Egg encouraging a less aggressive and more zoning playstyle, while Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster requires you to make a commitment and go in to hit combos with the gun stance.

Banjo occupies a similar space to characters like Snake or Rob, but with significantly worse normals and damage in exchange for some more specific niche tech and a few extra bonuses. If you're willing to put up with that to use some of his better tools, then Banjo is the character for you.

Summary

Banjo & Kazooie

Banjo & Kazooie Banjo is a jack of all trades, master of none with a strong emphasis on zoning and trapping.

Pros

Cons

Excellent Projectiles: Strong moves like Rear Egg and Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster give banjo a pretty decent zoning game overall.
Lots of Depth: Banjo's niche tech in the form of KFC (Kazooie Fast Cancel) and various optimizations to Grenade play give banjo a lot of depth to explore, making him a labber's dream.
Good Survival: Banjo's pretty high weight, multiple jumps, and excellent recovery make it very hard for him to die at early percents and allow him to consistently survive to percents around 140 and 150.

Poor Damage: Banjo struggles with a lack of significant damage output in many matchups and a generally poor advantage, meaning he has to win much more neutral than the opponent to get anything done.

Unsafe on Shield: Very few of Banjo's moves are safe on shield, making them very hard to throw out in neutral.
Bad Anti-Airs: Banjo has issues hitting characters out of the air, as his Up Aerial has very little reward on hit and his Up Tilt has a criminally small hitbox.

Only five Golden Feathers are available per stock. If all five Golden Feathers are used up, the move becomes useless until Banjo & Kazooie get KOed and respawn. Additionally, Banjo & Kazooie are vulnerable to grabs despite otherwise being invincible during the attack.

 {{Overview
+|overview= Banjo and Kazooie is a jack-of-all trades, master of none. Banjo has two projectiles, both of which cover different gaps - {{clr|special|Rear Egg}} provides excellent trapping pressure and allows him to play neutral more effectively with one backing him up, while {{clr|special|Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster}} allows you to set up some smaller traps and tech coverage that can also stance shift into its gun mode to use as a combo tool. Banjo's neutral is primarily made up of attempting to use his few safe pokes in {{clr|tilt|Forward Tilt}} and {{clr|tilt|Down Tilt}} to outrange the opponent, as well as utilizing the previously mentioned {{clr|special|Rear Egg}} to make some of his options generally safer. Banjo primarily gets kill through either using {{clr|grab|Down Throw}} into {{clr|tilt|Up Tilt}} for fast mashes and {{clr|smash|Up Smash}} for slow mashes, as well as spacing with moves like {{clr|aerial|Forward Aerial}} and confirming into {{clr|special|Wonderwing}}
-|overview= {{StockIcon|SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} (Banjo) is a character in SSBU. (Placeholder)
+Overall, despite Banjo's array of tools, he mostly centralizes around a zoning/trapping game due to the absurd strength of {{clr|special|Rear Egg}} - however, it's also due to the generally poor quality of some of his other tools. One of Banjo's least desirable attributes is his safety on shield, as he only has 1 normal that's less than -10 on shield. This leads to him having issues when it comes to safely throwing out moves, as many of his moves can be easily punished on shield if not perfectly spaced by the Banjo player. As well, he struggles with damage output, as many of his moves output low damage and don't have any significant combos out of them. The main two options he has to alleviate this are combos with his two projectiles - however, the two both encourage very different styles of play, with {{clr|special|Rear Egg}} encouraging a less aggressive and more zoning playstyle, while {{clr|special|Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster}} requires you to make a commitment and go in to hit combos with the gun stance.
-|summary= does things (Placeholder)
-|pros=* Placeholder
+Banjo occupies a similar space to characters like Snake or Rob, but with significantly worse normals and damage in exchange for some more specific niche tech and a few extra bonuses. If you're willing to put up with that to use some of his better tools, then Banjo is the character for you.
-|cons=* Placeholder
+|summary= {{StockIcon|SSBU|Banjo & Kazooie}} Banjo is a jack of all trades, master of none with a strong emphasis on zoning and trapping.
+|pros=
+* '''Excellent Projectiles:''' Strong moves like {{clr|special|Rear Egg}} and {{clr|special|Egg Firing/Breegul Blaster}} give banjo a pretty decent zoning game overall.
+* '''Lots of Depth:''' Banjo's niche tech in the form of KFC (Kazooie Fast Cancel) and various optimizations to Grenade play give banjo a lot of depth to explore, making him a labber's dream.
+* '''Good Survival:''' Banjo's pretty high weight, multiple jumps, and excellent recovery make it very hard for him to die at early percents and allow him to consistently survive to percents around 140 and 150.
+|cons=*
+'''Poor Damage:''' Banjo struggles with a lack of significant damage output in many matchups and a generally poor advantage, meaning he has to win much more neutral than the opponent to get anything done.
+* '''Unsafe on Shield:''' Very few of Banjo's moves are safe on shield, making them very hard to throw out in neutral.
+* '''Bad Anti-Airs:''' Banjo has issues hitting characters out of the air, as his {{clr|aerial|Up Aerial}} has very little reward on hit and his {{clr|tilt|Up Tilt}} has a criminally small hitbox.
