'''Bros. Attacks''' are special methods of attacking, which require Mario and Luigi to work together. These moves are used in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''.
'''Bros. Attacks''' are special methods of attacking, which require Mario and Luigi to work together. These moves are used in most of the games in the ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series, with the exception of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]''. "Bros. Attacks" is pronouced "Brothers Attacks".<ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=Oct 6, 2017|title=Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga + Bowser’s Minions - Nintendo 3DS Launch Trailer|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dK49yoDQ2AA|timestamp="1:37"|publisher=Youtube|accessdate=Oct 20, 2024}}</ref> A Bros. Attack challenges the player to successfully perform [[Action Command]]s as the animation progresses. Missing inputs may cause the  attack to deal less damage, conclude early without dealing the maximum number of hits, or prevent it from doing any damage as the Bros. mess up. ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' only used each brother's button, those being {{button|A}} and {{button|B}}, for the Action Commands, but later games implement Action Commands involving directional inputs. They also become more minigame like, with inputs required to make the characters move at all instead of just accentuating an animation. ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'' implements gyroscope based controls for three Bros. Attacks. Later games have endurance modes where the player has to keep successfully performing a Bros. Attack until they reach a maximum score, with the challenge being lost if the player makes too many mistakes.
In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] learn six Bros. Attacks during the adventure, three for each brother; the moves are based off their overworld Bros. Actions, such as the [[High Jump]]. In addition, there are two secret Bros. Attacks that they can learn by acquiring the two Secret Scrolls in the [[Hammerhead Bros.]]' Cave. A very small selection of enemies can use attacks similar to Bros. Attacks, such as the bosses [[Popple]] and [[Rookie]].


[[File:MLSS-Bros. Attack Tutorial.png|frame|left|The [[Starshade Bros.]] explaining '''Bros. Attacks'''.]]
Bros. Attacks cannot be performed if either brother is unable to act. This includes any case where a brother is [[downed|KO'd]], but also instances where a brother has a status effect like [[Trip]] or [[Burn]]. Some status effects on one brother, like [[Tiny]], prevent Bros. Attacks but do not restrict other actions.
Bros. Attacks use up Mario and Luigi's [[Bros. Points]], or BP. Each Bros. attack costs three to eight Bros. Points, which can be replenished with [[Syrup Jar]]s.

====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions''====
{{see also|Super Attack}}
[[File:MLSS-Bros. Attack Tutorial.png|frame|left|The [[Starshade Bros.]] explaining Bros. Attacks]]
In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga'', [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] learn eight Bros. Attacks during the adventure, four for each brother; the required moves are based off their [[Bros. Move|Bros. Action]]s in the field, ex. the [[Bounce Bros.]] attack, which is based off of the [[High Jump]] action, and are obtained at the same time. In addition, there are [[Swing Bros.|two secret]] [[Cyclone Bros.|Bros. Attacks]] that they can learn by acquiring the [[Secret Scroll 1|two]] [[Secret Scroll 2|Secret Scrolls]] in the [[Hammerhead Bros.]]' caverns in eastern [[Beanbean Fields|Beanbean Outskirts]]. A very small selection of enemies can use attacks similar to Bros. Attacks, such as the bosses [[Popple]] and [[Rookie]] in their second battle.
 
Bros. Attacks use up Mario and Luigi's [[Bros. Point]]s, or BP. Each Bros. attack costs three to eight Bros. Points, which can be replenished with [[Syrup Jar]]s, other BP restorative items (like [[Golden Mushroom (crownless)|Golden Mushroom]]s), and/or certain [[List of badges in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga|badges]].


To perform Bros. Attacks, buttons must be pressed in the right order, at the right time. If a button is missed, the attack will do far less damage, possibly even less than a regular [[Jump]] or [[Hammer]] attack. Each Bros. Attack also has three Modes: 1, 2, and 3. Mode 1 is the most basic; the game goes into slow motion when buttons need to be pressed, to give the player ample time to press the correct buttons. In addition, button icons that show which button needs to be pressed are clearly displayed. In Mode 2, slow-motion is taken out, but the button icons remain. Mode 3 has no slow-motion, or button icons, but Bros. Attacks performed in Mode 3 are more powerful and cost less BP than those performed in the other Modes.

After executing a Bros. Attack successfully (i.e. pressing all of the buttons correctly) a certain number of times, [[Advanced Command]]s are learned. Advanced Bros. Attacks are generally harder to perform than regular ones, but Advanced attacks often have added bonuses such as stealing [[List of items|items]], making the enemy [[Dizzy]], or simply doing more damage to it.
After executing a Bros. Attack successfully (i.e. pressing all of the buttons correctly) a certain number of times, [[Super Attack|Advanced Command]]s are learned. Advanced Bros. Attacks are generally harder to perform than regular ones, but Advanced attacks often have added bonuses such as stealing items, inflicting status ailments, or simply doing more damage to the boss or enemy.
 
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', Modes 1, 2, and 3 no longer exist for the Bros. Attacks, instead they are replaced by "Normal" or "Easy" difficulty, with the Easy difficulty being more lenient in timing but with the downside of costing more BP to perform. The slowed down pace of Mode 1 is also removed. Additionally, all battle backgrounds now scroll whenever Mario or Luigi use a Bros. Attack. The "Advanced" Bros. Attacks have been given their own separate category of "Super Bros. Attacks". Even if the Bros. fail to obtain an "Excellent!" rating for the original attacks, it still counts towards the number of times that the move is performed, meaning that there is no penalty for failing to perform the attack properly. Furthermore, the Bros. have a chance to practice their Bros. attacks if they lack knowledge on proper timing during "Practice" mode or watch a "Demo" of the attacks in order to learn how to perform them properly, both of which are accessed during combat. Some attacks, such as Swing Bros., have had their inputs changed.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====
{{main|Bros. Item}}
The concept of Bros. Attacks was replaced with [[Bros. Item]]s in the sequel, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', which are disposable attacks that can be bought from shops or found in ? Blocks. However, one Bros. Attack does make an appearance. The [[Hammer Bros.]] in the game use [[Knockback Bros.]] as an attack.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' / ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey''====
{{see also|Brawl Attack}}

}}
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'', Bros. Attacks are referred to as '''Special Attacks''' and they use up [[Brawl Point|Special Point]]s. Unlike in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''. Instead of gaining new attacks through learning new Bros. Actions, all Special Attacks are unlocked through collecting ten [[Attack Piece]]s in a given area. Attack Pieces can be obtained either by hitting [[Attack Piece Block]]s or by completing certain quests to obtain all ten pieces at a time. All Bros. Attacks can be activated by both Mario and Luigi, and Advanced Commands are completely omitted.
 
In the remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', "Special Attacks" and "Special Points" are renamed back to "Bros. Attacks" and "Bros. Points," respectively. Just like in ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', the "Easy" difficulty mode for Special Attacks can be toggled on or off in the remake using {{button|3ds|y}}, which makes the timing of button presses for the attacks much more lenient, but at the cost of more Bros. Points being used up.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
{{see also|Luiginary Attack}}
Bros. Attacks return in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', and can be used in battles in the Real World. Mario and Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each, making a total of 10. They are unlocked by collecting 10 [[Attack Piece]]s in various places in the Real World for each attack, similar to how Special Attacks are unlocked in the preceding game. In the [[Dream World]], [[Luiginary Attack]]s are used instead of Bros. Attacks, which are unlocked in the same way as Bros. Attacks in the Real World.
 
In this game, Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks are designated as dealing damage with either the [[boots]] or the [[hammer]]s, or neither of them. This is because Mario and Luigi can equip boots and hammer [[Clothing|gear]] which specifically apply their [[Power]] boost and special effect when the player uses attacks corresponding to the item. Some Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks use neither gear, like [[Slingsniper]]. Certain Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks, such as [[Fire Flower]], inflict damage with [[fire (element)|fire]]. Attacks with fire never use boots or hammers.
 
Missing or failing Bros. Attacks or Luiginary Attacks enough times provides the player with the option to enable "Slow Attack" for that move, toggling on and off with {{button|3ds|R}} while in the menu. The attack failing because the enemy is immune counts. In Slow Attack, the game slows down when a button press is required, making the inputs easier to perform. However, the attack deals less damage. If the attack is used outside of Slow Attack enough times, the option will be disabled until the condition is met again.
 
The Guide menu allows the player to watch a demo of each Bros. Attack or Luiginary Attack used on dummy enemies. The demo always demonstrates an Excellent attack, and the dummy enemies respawn so it can repeat. Depending on the attack, a different number of enemies appear. The player can choose to practice that attack with those enemies, with the enemies being replaced after each attack even if any of them survive. Each session tracks the number of Excellent attacks performed in a row, resetting on a non-Excellent attack and when the player quits.
 
The [[Mad Skillathon]] serves as an endurance mode for Bros. Attacks, though three attacks are excluded. In it, the player is tasked earn 999 points in each game through perfect use of the specified attack. They often have modified mechanics compared to the version seen in battles. Luiginary Attacks have an equivalent mode in [[Battle Broque Madame]].
 
Four Bros. Attacks are also available for [[Dreamy Luigi]] in [[Giant Luigi|Giant Battles]]. Giant Luigi does not have BP, so attacks do not require it. Instead, using Bros. Attacks exhausts Mario, meaning a Bros. Attack cannot be used again until Mario recovers. Additionally, some opponents can knock Mario off Giant Luigi, which prevents Bros. Attacks from being used until he returns. Two Bros. Attacks are special finishing moves, only used to conclude the boss battle. These moves are exempt from this mechanic, with Mario always recovering or returning just before they are used. Slow Attack is not available in these battles. Giant Luigi is not affected by gear, so there is no distinction between boots and hammers. None of Giant Luigi's Bros. Attacks involve hammers though.
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
{{see also|Trio Attack}}
Bros. Attacks return for the fourth time in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'', where like in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Mario and Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each. When the player uses a Bros. Attack, Mario and Luigi will execute the attack while [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] cheers for the duo; as a result Bros. Attacks can even be used if Paper Mario is knocked out or absent entirely. Paper Mario instead has the option to use [[Trio Attack]]s that work similarly to Bros. Attacks; but require Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario to cooperate with each other. Unlike in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'' and ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Bros. Attacks are not gained by collecting Attack Pieces; they are instead gained by getting them back from [[Nabbit]] who stole them at the beginning of the game, with the exception of [[Toad Trail]] which is obtained after defeating [[King Bob-omb]] at the top of [[Mount Brrr]] and after gaining access to [[Neo Bowser Castle]].
 
====''Mario & Luigi: Brothership''====
Bros. Attacks return again in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. As before, they cannot be used if a brother cannot act (i.e., being [[Down|dead]] or [[Dizzy|stunned]]), but they are also prohibited if something results in a brother contracting [[Glohm]]. This time, [[Technikki]] serves as their creator (which, akin to [[Nabbit]]'s chases in ''Paper Jam'', renders [[Attack Pieces]] obsolete), although she only gives the first eight of them due to being trapped in one of [[Reclusa]]'s flowers after it awakens. As with the previous two mainline installments, ''Dream Team'' and ''Paper Jam'', Mario and Luigi each have five Bros. Attacks. Five of them return from previous games (Red Shell and Bomb Derby from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', Green Shell, Jump Helmet, and Yoo Who Cannon from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]''), with the rest being completely new attacks.
 
==List of Bros. Attacks==


In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', Modes 1, 2, and 3 no longer exist for the Bros. Attacks, instead they are replaced by "Normal" or "Easy" difficulty, with the Easy difficulty being more lenient in timing but with the downside of costing more BP to perform. The slowed down pace of Mode 1 is also removed. The "Advanced" Bros. Attacks have been given their own separate category of "Super Bros. Attacks". Furthermore, he Bros. have a chance to practice their Bros. attacks if they lack knowledge on proper timing during "Practice" mode or watch a "Demo" of the attacks in order to learn how to perform them properly, both of which are accessed during combat. Some attacks, such as Swing Bros., have had their inputs changed.

In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story'', Bros. Attacks are referred to as '''Special Attacks'''. Unlike in other installments, all Special Attacks can be activated by both Mario and Luigi. They are unlocked by collecting ten [[Attack Piece]]s in a given area or by completing certain quests to obtain all ten pieces at a time. Advanced Commands are absent in this game, along with both successors.

Bros. Attacks return in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', and can be used in battles in the Real World. Mario & Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each, making a total of 10. They are unlocked by collecting 10 [[Attack Piece]]s in various places in the Real World for each attack, similar to how Special Attacks are unlocked in the preceding game. In the Dream World, [[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team#Luiginary Attacks (Dream World)|Luiginary Attacks]] are used instead of Bros. Attacks.  As the game progresses, Bros. Attacks are also unlocked for [[Dreamy Luigi]] in Giant Battles.
<small>* - Required for the game.</small>


Bros. Attacks return for the third time in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'', acting similarly to their appearance in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''. When the player uses a Bros. Attack, Mario and Luigi will execute the attack while [[Paper Mario (character)|Paper Mario]] cheers for the duo. Paper Mario instead has the option to use [[Trio Attack]]s that work similarly to Bros. Attacks; but require Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario to cooperate with each other. Unlike in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', Bros. Attacks are not gained by collecting Attack Pieces; they're instead gained by getting them back from [[Nabbit]] who stole them at the beginning of the game.

|Mario throws the Zee Egg, unleashing the [[Zeekeeper]]. He takes Mario and Luigi into the skies and shoots a Wakeorb down. As they descend, the Zeekeeper has to stay aligned with the shifting orb with the {{button|3ds|stick}}, letting Mario and Luigi use their hammers to boost the Wakeorb's speed. The Wakeorb explodes when it hits the ground, primarily damaging one target but hurting others.

|The player tilts the 3DS to move the Dropchopper, aiming above Mario and Luigi so they can grab on. Afterwards, Mario and Luigi drop down with a spin onto one enemy, releasing a shockwave that hurts other enemies.

|''Touch Mushrooms to heal up!''
|This move cannot be used in the [[Battle Ring (Mario & Luigi: Dream Team)|Battle Ring]]. Once Mario throws mushrooms at Luigi, the player must tap the screen as Luigi eats them.
|-
|style="background-color: #bfd3e3" |[[Drill Stomp]]
|''Spin more for a super stomp!''
|This move is unlocked during the battle against [[Mount Pajamaja (boss)|Mount Pajamaja]], but cannot be used against [[Robo-Drilldigger X]]. Mario and Luigi jump while spinning. The player must draw as many circles as possible in the direction shown to make Mario spin faster, then then he and Luigi come down for heavy damage. Successful inputs allow this to be used two additional times.
|-
|style="background-color: #bfd3e3" |[[Finishing Bros.]]
|''Aim with the 3DS!''
|This move is used at the end of each battle. Luigi throws a star at the boss, while Mario guides it as it comes down. The player must tilt the 3DS to aim the star marker onto the enemy's weak point, which if hit will earn an "Excellent!" rating and reward the player with better items and more coins than if an "OK" rating is achieved upon missing the target.
|-
|style="background-color: #bfd3e3" |[[Star Driver]]
|''Control the star to attack!''
|This move is used in the final phase of the battle against [[Super Bowser|Bowser]], as well as [[Bowser X]]. It looks the same as Finishing Bros. but involves a larger star. The player must tilt the 3DS to dodge Bowser's fireballs, Avoiding them all allows it to defeat Bowser. If a fireball hits, the attack is nullified and Bowser gets to take another turn.

Not to be confused with Bros. Move.
Bros. Attack
Mario and Luigi performing the Bros. Attack, Splash Bros.

Bros. Attacks are special methods of attacking, which require Mario and Luigi to work together. These moves are used in most of the games in the Mario & Luigi series, with the exception of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. "Bros. Attacks" is pronouced "Brothers Attacks".[1] A Bros. Attack challenges the player to successfully perform Action Commands as the animation progresses. Missing inputs may cause the attack to deal less damage, conclude early without dealing the maximum number of hits, or prevent it from doing any damage as the Bros. mess up. Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga only used each brother's button, those being A Button and B Button, for the Action Commands, but later games implement Action Commands involving directional inputs. They also become more minigame like, with inputs required to make the characters move at all instead of just accentuating an animation. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team implements gyroscope based controls for three Bros. Attacks. Later games have endurance modes where the player has to keep successfully performing a Bros. Attack until they reach a maximum score, with the challenge being lost if the player makes too many mistakes.

Bros. Attacks cannot be performed if either brother is unable to act. This includes any case where a brother is KO'd, but also instances where a brother has a status effect like Trip or Burn. Some status effects on one brother, like Tiny, prevent Bros. Attacks but do not restrict other actions.

History[edit]

Mario & Luigi series[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga / Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions[edit]

See also: Super Attack
The Starshade Bros. explaining Bros. Attacks
The Starshade Bros. explaining Bros. Attacks

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario and Luigi learn eight Bros. Attacks during the adventure, four for each brother; the required moves are based off their Bros. Actions in the field, ex. the Bounce Bros. attack, which is based off of the High Jump action, and are obtained at the same time. In addition, there are two secret Bros. Attacks that they can learn by acquiring the two Secret Scrolls in the Hammerhead Bros.' caverns in eastern Beanbean Outskirts. A very small selection of enemies can use attacks similar to Bros. Attacks, such as the bosses Popple and Rookie in their second battle.

Bros. Attacks use up Mario and Luigi's Bros. Points, or BP. Each Bros. attack costs three to eight Bros. Points, which can be replenished with Syrup Jars, other BP restorative items (like Golden Mushrooms), and/or certain badges.

To perform Bros. Attacks, buttons must be pressed in the right order, at the right time. If a button is missed, the attack will do far less damage, possibly even less than a regular Jump or Hammer attack. Each Bros. Attack also has three Modes: 1, 2, and 3. Mode 1 is the most basic; the game goes into slow motion when buttons need to be pressed, to give the player ample time to press the correct buttons. In addition, button icons that show which button needs to be pressed are clearly displayed. In Mode 2, slow-motion is taken out, but the button icons remain. Mode 3 has no slow-motion, or button icons, but Bros. Attacks performed in Mode 3 are more powerful and cost less BP than those performed in the other Modes.

After executing a Bros. Attack successfully (i.e. pressing all of the buttons correctly) a certain number of times, Advanced Commands are learned. Advanced Bros. Attacks are generally harder to perform than regular ones, but Advanced attacks often have added bonuses such as stealing items, inflicting status ailments, or simply doing more damage to the boss or enemy.

In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, Modes 1, 2, and 3 no longer exist for the Bros. Attacks, instead they are replaced by "Normal" or "Easy" difficulty, with the Easy difficulty being more lenient in timing but with the downside of costing more BP to perform. The slowed down pace of Mode 1 is also removed. Additionally, all battle backgrounds now scroll whenever Mario or Luigi use a Bros. Attack. The "Advanced" Bros. Attacks have been given their own separate category of "Super Bros. Attacks". Even if the Bros. fail to obtain an "Excellent!" rating for the original attacks, it still counts towards the number of times that the move is performed, meaning that there is no penalty for failing to perform the attack properly. Furthermore, the Bros. have a chance to practice their Bros. attacks if they lack knowledge on proper timing during "Practice" mode or watch a "Demo" of the attacks in order to learn how to perform them properly, both of which are accessed during combat. Some attacks, such as Swing Bros., have had their inputs changed.

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time[edit]

Main article: Bros. Item

The concept of Bros. Attacks was replaced with Bros. Items in the sequel, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, which are disposable attacks that can be bought from shops or found in ? Blocks. However, one Bros. Attack does make an appearance. The Hammer Bros. in the game use Knockback Bros. as an attack.

The Green Shell Special/Bros. Attack in action.

The Green Shell Special/Bros. Attack in action.

In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, Bros. Attacks are referred to as Special Attacks and they use up Special Points. Unlike in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Instead of gaining new attacks through learning new Bros. Actions, all Special Attacks are unlocked through collecting ten Attack Pieces in a given area. Attack Pieces can be obtained either by hitting Attack Piece Blocks or by completing certain quests to obtain all ten pieces at a time. All Bros. Attacks can be activated by both Mario and Luigi, and Advanced Commands are completely omitted.

In the remake, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, "Special Attacks" and "Special Points" are renamed back to "Bros. Attacks" and "Bros. Points," respectively. Just like in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the "Easy" difficulty mode for Special Attacks can be toggled on or off in the remake using Y Button, which makes the timing of button presses for the attacks much more lenient, but at the cost of more Bros. Points being used up.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]

See also: Luiginary Attack

Bros. Attacks return in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, and can be used in battles in the Real World. Mario and Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each, making a total of 10. They are unlocked by collecting 10 Attack Pieces in various places in the Real World for each attack, similar to how Special Attacks are unlocked in the preceding game. In the Dream World, Luiginary Attacks are used instead of Bros. Attacks, which are unlocked in the same way as Bros. Attacks in the Real World.

In this game, Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks are designated as dealing damage with either the boots or the hammers, or neither of them. This is because Mario and Luigi can equip boots and hammer gear which specifically apply their Power boost and special effect when the player uses attacks corresponding to the item. Some Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks use neither gear, like Slingsniper. Certain Bros. Attacks and Luiginary Attacks, such as Fire Flower, inflict damage with fire. Attacks with fire never use boots or hammers.

Missing or failing Bros. Attacks or Luiginary Attacks enough times provides the player with the option to enable "Slow Attack" for that move, toggling on and off with R Button while in the menu. The attack failing because the enemy is immune counts. In Slow Attack, the game slows down when a button press is required, making the inputs easier to perform. However, the attack deals less damage. If the attack is used outside of Slow Attack enough times, the option will be disabled until the condition is met again.

The Guide menu allows the player to watch a demo of each Bros. Attack or Luiginary Attack used on dummy enemies. The demo always demonstrates an Excellent attack, and the dummy enemies respawn so it can repeat. Depending on the attack, a different number of enemies appear. The player can choose to practice that attack with those enemies, with the enemies being replaced after each attack even if any of them survive. Each session tracks the number of Excellent attacks performed in a row, resetting on a non-Excellent attack and when the player quits.

The Mad Skillathon serves as an endurance mode for Bros. Attacks, though three attacks are excluded. In it, the player is tasked earn 999 points in each game through perfect use of the specified attack. They often have modified mechanics compared to the version seen in battles. Luiginary Attacks have an equivalent mode in Battle Broque Madame.

Four Bros. Attacks are also available for Dreamy Luigi in Giant Battles. Giant Luigi does not have BP, so attacks do not require it. Instead, using Bros. Attacks exhausts Mario, meaning a Bros. Attack cannot be used again until Mario recovers. Additionally, some opponents can knock Mario off Giant Luigi, which prevents Bros. Attacks from being used until he returns. Two Bros. Attacks are special finishing moves, only used to conclude the boss battle. These moves are exempt from this mechanic, with Mario always recovering or returning just before they are used. Slow Attack is not available in these battles. Giant Luigi is not affected by gear, so there is no distinction between boots and hammers. None of Giant Luigi's Bros. Attacks involve hammers though.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam[edit]

See also: Trio Attack

Bros. Attacks return for the fourth time in Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam, where like in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Mario and Luigi have five Bros. Attacks each. When the player uses a Bros. Attack, Mario and Luigi will execute the attack while Paper Mario cheers for the duo; as a result Bros. Attacks can even be used if Paper Mario is knocked out or absent entirely. Paper Mario instead has the option to use Trio Attacks that work similarly to Bros. Attacks; but require Mario, Luigi, and Paper Mario to cooperate with each other. Unlike in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Bros. Attacks are not gained by collecting Attack Pieces; they are instead gained by getting them back from Nabbit who stole them at the beginning of the game, with the exception of Toad Trail which is obtained after defeating King Bob-omb at the top of Mount Brrr and after gaining access to Neo Bowser Castle.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership[edit]

Bros. Attacks return again in Mario & Luigi: Brothership. As before, they cannot be used if a brother cannot act (i.e., being dead or stunned), but they are also prohibited if something results in a brother contracting Glohm. This time, Technikki serves as their creator (which, akin to Nabbit's chases in Paper Jam, renders Attack Pieces obsolete), although she only gives the first eight of them due to being trapped in one of Reclusa's flowers after it awakens. As with the previous two mainline installments, Dream Team and Paper Jam, Mario and Luigi each have five Bros. Attacks. Five of them return from previous games (Red Shell and Bomb Derby from Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Green Shell, Jump Helmet, and Yoo Who Cannon from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story), with the rest being completely new attacks.

Giant Luigi's Bros. Attacks[edit]

Bros. Attack Description Mechanics
Rhythm Mushroom Touch Mushrooms to heal up! This move cannot be used in the Battle Ring. Once Mario throws mushrooms at Luigi, the player must tap the screen as Luigi eats them.
Drill Stomp Spin more for a super stomp! This move is unlocked during the battle against Mount Pajamaja, but cannot be used against Robo-Drilldigger X. Mario and Luigi jump while spinning. The player must draw as many circles as possible in the direction shown to make Mario spin faster, then then he and Luigi come down for heavy damage. Successful inputs allow this to be used two additional times.
Finishing Bros. Aim with the 3DS! This move is used at the end of each battle. Luigi throws a star at the boss, while Mario guides it as it comes down. The player must tilt the 3DS to aim the star marker onto the enemy's weak point, which if hit will earn an "Excellent!" rating and reward the player with better items and more coins than if an "OK" rating is achieved upon missing the target.
Star Driver Control the star to attack! This move is used in the final phase of the battle against Bowser, as well as Bowser X. It looks the same as Finishing Bros. but involves a larger star. The player must tilt the 3DS to dodge Bowser's fireballs, Avoiding them all allows it to defeat Bowser. If a fireball hits, the attack is nullified and Bowser gets to take another turn.
