Angryverse/Matilda (Classic)

Out of all the members of Red’s flock, Matilda is the closest you’ll flocking get to a pacifist, kind and caring, all she ever wish for is that one day, all the birds and pigs would live together in harmony without any conflict whatsoever, but it seems like that is not happening anytime soon, Matilda is a real hippy chick, in fact, she’d rather chose do gardening and enjoy nature over fighting the pigs, but in the end, the eggs still needs to be protected, so she’ll try her hardest to prevent the pigs from taking them and starting another battle, however, there will be times where if anyone, a pig for example, were to ruin her precious garden, she would outburst with rage and her pacifist persona is thrown out of the window!

Being the optimist that she is (most of the time anyway), Matilda has tried her hardest to keep her anger from coming out with methods like meditation or gardening, sometimes the attempts are successful, other times... not so much. Matilda is the mother figure of the flock, always checking and looking out for each and every member out of pure kindness and care, especially the younger birds such as The Blues, but that’s not to say she isn’t a efficient fighter when it comes to brutally beating up pigs.

Angry Birds
The fifth introduced bird type, Matilda is the second bulkiest bird after Terence, while in mid-air, he she has the ability to drop a egg-shaped explosive on anything he she flies over, after dropping the the egg bomb, the bird will ricochet and gain vertical distance, great for hitting any targets up above.

Angry Birds Seasons
Matilda appears from the very start of the game when it was once known as Angry Birds Halloween. After his her first appearance in Trick or Treat, he she would be a playable character in all of the episodes that follow. Matilda's ability had no alterations when putting her in the game. However in Piglantis, it was revealed that Matilda's ability will go along with water. If the water is deep enough, then Matilda's explosive egg will be able to burst out of the surface, and hit possible structures above it. If Matilda is slung into the water, he she will sink and then resurface.

There was also a version of Matilda in Hogs and Kisses unofficially named "Female White Bird", as she had never been given an official name. She is shown to be significantly smaller than the Girl Bird in some photos, who was the same size as the regular Red Bird. However, in others, she was just as big as the regular Matilda. It was shown that the Female White Bird and Matilda were in a romantic relationship. However, this had been way before official genders were given to the birds and have not been counted as actual canon.

Angry Birds Rio
Matilda appears as the fourth bird unlocked in Angry Birds Rio, first appearing in Smugglers' Den's 70 Star and Feather Award levels, but later made his her proper debut in the 6th level of Jungle Escape. After this, he she appears in all the following episodes as a playable character. Matilda's ability is almost identical to his her two prior appearances except that his her egg bomb is more powerful, and can make much more damage. For example, if he she lays an egg on Luiz during Beach Volley, Luiz will fly in the air; which is quite useful, as Luiz is very strong and can destroy many bricks. (along with destroying even more if beach balls are laid out afterward)

If used right, Matilda can be a very versatile and powerful character to have during boss fights. Matilda's egg bomb is very harmful to bosses, taking a very major hit. (as you usually will need 2-4 of them to defeat the boss) It is recommended that if possible, fire Matilda very close to the boss and lay the egg bomb on him, causing Matilda to fly off, where she will hopefully hit TNT or a weakly supported structure.

When the game was updated in 2014 to promote Rio 2, all of the birds were redesigned to match his her appearance in Angry Birds Toons, (see below) Notably, this featured a more prominently feminine Matilda, as fans had been initially very confused about her gender. (though at this point it had been confirmed that she was clearly a female)

Angry Birds Friends
Originally, Matilda was introduced the same level and episode that he she appeared in the original game, although the first chapter in the game was Surf and Turf, rather than Poached Eggs. In modern updates of the game however, he she would debut in the Piggy Tower in level 5-11.

His Her ability stays the same as the other games, but with some minor changes in damage, consistent with her fix from Angry Birds Rio. However, his her ability was temporarily replaced in the Holiday Oink Tournaments with an Explosive Present Dropping ability.

He She received a design change in the mobile version, where it now uses the Toons Design, where he she is still frowning and the shriveled sprite is the same as injured.

Angry Birds Go!
Matilda is featured in Angry Birds Go! as a playable character, and multiple changes are made to her character. For one, she uses her Toons animation in-game, which hadn't happened before. She also, like all of the other characters, uses a 3D model, which was a first for Rovio, as all their games had been in 2D animation up until that point.

Like all the other playable characters in the game, Matilda has her kart, which is the Tub-Copter. This is the kart that she is featured within Telepods, promotions, and other merchandise.

Matilda was first featured in Air like a boss. You would have to beat her 3 times in a race to unlock her as a playable character; and like most of the other characters, she had a different ability. (in which she would throw spinning eggs at the player)

However, once the game was updated, the boss battles were then removed from the game and replaced with the campaigns. Now you have to get one star on campaign level 4, race 5.

Matilda also appears in races as an opponent in all themes of the game.

Her ability as a playable character is to throw egg bombs at the rival racers. While this ability is effective in the players that it hits, it isn't as widespread as other character's abilities, or abundant.

Angry Birds Epic
Matilda is included as a playable character in Angry Birds Epic, having the role of the medic and like all the other birds, can be upgraded and changed to the player's preference.

Once she is introduced she becomes a very prominent character, and is involved as an option in most battles and appears in the cutscenes.

Angry Birds 2
Voice Actor: Antti Paakkonnen

Matilda is included as a playable character in Angry Birds 2, which had been introduced after a rather long time where Rovio did not introduce slingshot-based games with Matilda involved. As most of the returning characters in the game (not including Red), Matilda was given the same ability she originally had in the first games.

The game also introduces computer animation for the birds and pigs, which had never happened before in the previous slingshot-based games, where there were instead multiple sprites for the birds that were used when they were idle, flying, corpses, etc. Matilda also appears in her "Angry Birds Toons" animation style, as prominantly female. (along with her voice parts)

Matilda has the same ability as she had in the original games, which is to shoot egg bombs vertically downwards. Once again, the egg bombs aren't extremely effective in terms of destruction, but they are much more effective in being "bombs". They can cause nearby objects to slightly shake, and can also destroy balloons and weak objects even if they are not directly hit.

Matilda also flies to the right once her ability is used, which is a feature that was in all of the other slingshot games. (excluding the Star Wars series) This is useful, as the levels tend to be much bigger than the original, so there are many more structures to knock down and there is more of an opportunity for Matilda to cause damage. In the other games, she looks squiggly, but in Angry Birds 2, she looks normal, she just spins.

Like all of the other birds, Matilda can level up if the player obtains her feathers, which increases the number of points she earns when she is used.

Angry Birds Fight!
Matilda was involved in the Angry Birds Fight! game as one of the 6 playable and customizable characters. Other than this, she also appears on the matching board as one of the 6 icons. Matilda often appears in promotional material and trailers for the game.

Unlike the other newer Angry Birds games, which made their designs that followed the Toons animations, this game directly takes Matilda's design from the series. (excluding her "matching" icon) The game also uses computer animation, allowing Matilda to be much more lively and animated.

As of August 1st, 2017, the game has been discontinued and taken down from the Play and App stores, and servers have since been shut down.

Each bird had his/her unique ability if the player was able to match 4 or more of their icons. Matilda's unique ability was to lay an egg bomb and erase panels in a vertical line while digging into the enemy's board as well.

Your success depends on how many points you rack up, so matching quickly is dire for the game. If you don't manage to make enough points by matching the bird icons in 3 or more lines, Matilda or other birds that you use will be defeated by the opponent.

Angry Birds POP!
Matilda initially wasn't included in the game, as none of the flock members were, excluding Stella, as it was part of her series. However, she was introduced as a limited edition character and was playable for a short time. Afterward, the original flock members slowly began to replace the Stella characters, and the game was soon branded as a regular Angry Birds game. She is now included in the "Free the Hatchlings" portion, which was originally "Free the Critters", led by Willow.

Matilda is again, seemingly simple trend, in her animation style rather than her classic design.

As a limited edition character, Matilda had the same ability as the "Love Pop" by Shakira, though it is called the "Flock Pop". Unlike Shakira's ability, Matilda's bubble would be able to add time to time-based levels.

The purpose of Matilda's levels is to free the Hatchlings, who are encased in clear bubbles and surrounded by colored ones.

Currently, Matilda is included as a permanent character and is featured with a different ability. Her ability (which was previously Willow's) is to shoot a bubble that colors all the surrounding bubbles the color of the next bubble. (known as the "Splash Pop")

Angry Birds Transformers
Voice Actor: Kiti Kokkonen

Matilda is the hippy, good-vibes, let's-all-just-calm-down-a-bit mother figure of the Flock. Naturally, she has

her lack-of-hands full on that score. She tries to keep the rest of the birds calm and friendly, even cooking meals for everyone... though she's not very good at that, but at least everyone else appreciates her enough to try and hide their attempts to throw whatever she's made away. Her upbeat attitude blends well with the chipper Autobot Nautica, leading to a pretty successful fusion of chicken and Camien!

However, her strictness in her rules and regulations led her to become Strongarm bird.

As Nautica
As the first new map-unlock character in three years, Nautica requires some extra work to unlock (as long-term players would have a huge level and tons of Pig points, the nominal method of map unlocks). First the player must collect 10000 units of Plasma, which is found in Daily Rewards, Daily Quests, Token Exchange, and Crates, to open up the new cave island area where Nautica is being held. Then you have to collect 750 Bat Pigs, which are found in Daily Rewards, Cave levels, and Daily Quests, to open up her intro level.
 * Squad: Femme Fatale
 * Mission Type: Investigator
 * Unlock Type: New Area (Cave, 750 Bat Pigs)

Her weapon launches a quick succession of three water-bombs in a high arc which explode with considerable splash damage, then drop two more smaller bombs that fall in opposite directions. Properly powered up, she can obliterate block towers with ease, especially if you strike the tops of the towers to maximize the following downward spread. These initial bombs also have incredible push, sending anything they hit but don't destroy flying into the distance and damaging them over time.

Unfortunately, she's not very effective against more foes like Sharktihogs or Walking Mortar Towers, and just crap at tackling Boss Pig and Unicron Pig. Speed-wise, she runs at a medium-fast clip, and is pretty speedy in hoversub mode.

As Energon Nautica
Energon Nautica's attacks are stunningly similar to her non-Energized self, with roughly the same advantages and disadvantages, only with some extra power thanks to her Energon infusion. Her weapon has a slight acid effect, slowly draining health of any target hit but not destroyed, but it's easily the weakest acid attack in the game. Like all Energon variants, she takes extra damage from enemy attacks, but can heal by absorbing energon cubes from de-cyberformed scenery, at roughly half a heart per cube.
 * Squad: Femme Fatale
 * Mission Type: Investigator
 * Unlock Type: Challenge Event Prize (10000 Tokens)

Energon Nautica was first available in the "Naughty Nautica" Challenge Event in November, a typical six-day event (which happened to be right after the three-year anniversary event).

As Strongarm

 * Squad: Femme Fatale
 * Mission Type: ???
 * Unlock Type: Competition prize (10000 Tokens)
 * Strongarm's boundless enthusiasm mixes with Matilda's upbeat attitude distressingly well.


 * Her weapon is a lobbing blast that packs serious punch even at low levels, popping pigs easily, with a short-range explosive burst effective against weak blocks, and an EMP effect to boot. But bizarrely it doesn't follow a simple arc like many others' weapons. Instead it alternates between about 45 degrees right and left of center, but always homing in on the intended target.

Angry Birds Reloaded
Matilda appears in Angry Birds Reloaded starting with | and appearing in most episodes except for the [[Eagle Island episodes. Her ability is the same as in previous games.

Age of Eggstinction! - When Red commented that Chuck, now Bumblebee Bird, was acting reasonable wasn't normal, Stella responded that they had left "normal" back home with Matilda.

Angry Birds Transformers

 * Matilda is the last member of the original Flock to be added to the game.
 * For some strange reason, Matilda uses all of Silver's voice samples, despite having her own unique voice in other games, and shows. On top of that, the new Matilda heads lack any form of facial animation whatsoever, not even having a simple blink. Which looks really weird next to tremendously expressive characters like Moustache Pig.
