Having Snivler as a race for a Byrd of Prey fighting style doesn't seem to work well although it may seem like the obvious pick for many. Here's why not to pick Snivler:
- It's hard to get through armor with a Byrd of Prey style. Simply picking human might be more efficient since the offensive bonus is (Imo) a big + to get through defenses. As a Byrd of Prey fighter you'll take the initiative in the majority of fights anyway which makes the Snivler bonus less needed anyway.
- Main point here: as a Byrd of Prey fighter you'll get to trigger a lot of Last Stands (You wont hit that big to finish a fight without triggering it if your opponent has LS), by when you still have to throw in quite a few blows to finish it. The Health penalty for the snivler race makes Last Stand a dreadful thing to face.
That's my opinion on why not to pick Snivler for Byrd of Prey fighting styles. Comment as you like, I hope that this will be useful to someone.
