A '''Sniper Bill''' is a large, flexible [[Bullet Bill]] that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. However, instead of flying through the air like a normal Bullet Bill, a Sniper Bill stands in one place and aims at [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] with a [[Super Scope]]. Sniper Bills fire bullets from the Super Scope and fly into them (as a regular Bullet Bill). If the scope on Mario or Luigi is small, the bullet hits before the Sniper Bill. If the scope is large, the opposite is true. The attack can be avoided and countered by jumping, though the Sniper Bill will take no damage and simply "walk" back to its original position. The enemies are healed by fire, but are weak to thunder.

A '''Sniper Bill''' is a large, flexible [[Bullet Bill]] that appears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]''. They wear brown fingerless gloves and wield [[Super Scope]]s, holding them in a manner akin to a sniper's positioning while wearing a grimace on their faces. Sniper Bills are found in [[Bowser's Castle]], where they do not appear in the overworld, and are fought alongside [[Boo]]s and [[Magikoopa]]s.


In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', they no longer have a mouth, and more resemble a standard Bullet Bill. Unlike the original, they will take damage if countered.
Sniper Bills attack [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] by firing smaller Bullet Bills from their Super Scope at the Bros., then flying at them like a regular Bullet Bill. If the scope on Mario or Luigi is small, the bullet hits before the Sniper Bill; if the scope is large, the Sniper Bill will hit first. The attack can be avoided and countered by jumping, though the Sniper Bill will take no damage if hit and simply "walk" back to its original position. They are healed by fire, but are weak to thunder.
 
In ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions'', they no longer have a mouth nor brown fingerless gloves, and more resemble a standard Bullet Bill. Their attack pattern remains the same as in the original, though they will now take damage if countered.
