Top 10 Hardest Super Mario Enemies
Super Mario games are packed with colorful worlds, catchy music, and, of course, an army of unique enemies trying to stop you at every turn. Some of them are pretty simple to deal with. Others, though? They're a whole different story. You know the ones. The enemies that make you grip your controller just a little tighter, the ones that pop up in the toughest levels or seem to have a sixth sense for your every move. These baddies have been frustrating Mario players for years, and everyone's got their personal pick for the most annoying or difficult.
The Hammer Bro is a recurring enemy in the Mario video game series which is a Koopa that walks upright and attacks by throwing hammer projectiles at the player. I hate these things. You dodge a hammer, then jump on one thinking you got 'em, but they barely manage another hammer to kill you. In general, very annoying, especially when spammed in Mario Maker (this technically applies to every enemy ever, but you get my point).
Sometimes they only throw one hammer, and at other times they throw two. If you encounter one, deal with it ASAP.
The hammer suit should return in another Mario game because it lets you be like the Hammer Bros! Hammer Bros have MLG powers that they probably stole from the Toads, but with the hammer suit, you can show Bowser what it's like being trolled all the time with annoying flying hammers everywhere.
Just bring the hammer suit back!
Lakitu, known in Japan as Jugem, is a fictional flying character in the Mario franchise. Created by Shigeru Miyamoto, it first appeared in the Nintendo Entertainment System video game Super Mario Bros., where it dropped enemies called Spinies on the stage. These guys are literally impossible to get past unless you have a Fire Flower, so you can kill them and take their cloud. Then it's fun.
Unless you have any high ground, there is no chance anyone is going to defeat him! His surge of Spinies is as deadly as three Hammer Bros. attacking at once!
These things are evil incarnate. Forget Bowser - these should be the final bosses in the games.
It's the hardest out of Boomerang Bros., Hammer Bros., and Fire Bros. because you can't climb stairs when they're at the top.
These are hard unless you have a power-up, but they are really cute otherwise!
Chain Chomps, known as Wanwan in Japan, are metal, barking ball-and-chain like creatures that are restrained by Chains and are a main enemy in the Mario franchise.
These guys are nearly impossible to kill. They freak me out, yet I love them. Anyway, they just slowly stalk you and torment you in their house. It's terrible, haha. The only way you can kill them is with a star, which I rarely find in haunted houses.
What's worse is the giant Boos. When I see those guys, I'm like, Now I just gotta run! In Mario Galaxy, when you eat a Boo Mushroom, it's great to be a Boo, but when a female one sees you and touches you, you're dead meat because you turn back into Mario. Just extremely annoying.
Granted, I was like 6 the last time we faced off, but I remember being absolutely obliterated by this guy. While he wasn't hard to avoid by himself, all the other enemies, plus quicksand and gaps to jump, made it impossible.
Who was the jerk who came up with this guy?
Hardest blooming enemy I have ever faced in any game.
Dry Bones is a common enemy species in the Super Mario series of video games since „Super Mario Bros. 3“ (1988). After his first debut as a playable character in „Mario Superstar Baseball“ (2005), he became a fan-favorite and also got playable in other spin-offs of the Mario series. Thank goodness we got the Ice Flower and the Penguin Suit in New Super Mario Bros. Oh, the power.
I like Dry Bones! They're Koopa Troopas that burned up in lava, and only their dry bones were left. They're cute.
The Newcomers
Larry Koopa is the youngest koopaling. He first appeared in Super Mario Bros 3, which came out in 1990. He is known for his blue mohawk hair. He was created by Nintendo.
He's not just hard, or difficult, or frustrating, or even aggravating. He is insanely aggravating.
He is so hard that he gets his own page at GameFAQs for beating him. Are you ready to lose? Yeah. Be ready. I think you should even try to beat him after Bowser.
If you're six or under, I suggest you pay. After all, you can get coins by beating weaker enemies, too. So don't go crazy at the shops. Save money to get past Kent C. Koopa.
Bowser is the main antagonist of the Mario Bros. Franchise. From kidnapping Princess Peach to simply destroying a fun game between Mario and Friends in the Mario Party spinoff series, this king of the Koopas has set up a certain hatred towards himself amongst the large cast of Mario Characters. He first... read more Have you even played some of the games, such as Galaxy 2? Bowser is one of the most famous villains of all time, but I sometimes question Nintendo for designing some of his battles.
In Super Mario 3D World, he shows up in World One - why?
Come on! He's the final boss in most games!
Goombas, known in Japan as Kuribo, are a species of sentient mushrooms from Nintendo's Mario franchise. This should have specified the first World 1-1 Goomba on the NES. It pretty much racked up more kills than most insta-kill enemies, even Boss Bass.
Picture this: running without a care, then a Goomba pops out of nowhere, and you die! So annoying!
In 3D games, they run at you and murder Mario.
Boohemoth should be number one! He is the only Mario enemy that is completely invincible. If you stare at him too long, he will come after you again. Not even King Boo can do that! He is so different from other enemies. There is no way to kill him.
Also, he is very rare and hard to get away from. He should be king! He is just the greatest Mario villain ever.
Boohemoth should be number one! He is extremely sneaky and indestructible. I like how he looks because of his chubby cheeks, and his size is colossal. He is the largest Boo in the Boo family. In New Super Mario Bros. 2, he always crushes me!
I think he is the best Mario enemy ever created!
Kamek is a common enemy in the Mario Bros. Franchise. He usually appears in New Super Mario Bros. Games, Super Mario Bros. Games, or other similar games. He also appears in spinoff titles, like Mario Party, in which he is not a playable character but creates an obstacle for the players on their way... read more Are you sure you don't mean the Magikoopas, which have the same design as Kamek? Kamek is a higher-ranking member of Bowser's army, like the Koopalings or Bowser Jr.
As for fighting a Magikoopa, dear God, I've died so many times by not watching my step. Suddenly, that block is a Koopa! Either it killed me, or, even worse, the blocks would vanish and make me fall into the lava.
Why isn't Kamek on this list? He's awesome, and he's very hard to beat. Look at New Super Mario Bros. Wii and U - you have to keep running to catch him!
This thing can instantly kill you even if you have a Super Star!
Getting eaten by them means instant death.
Bloopers (Often Referred To Bloobers Until Paper Mario, Though Blooper was in use beforehand) are Squid-Like creatures that are found in the ocean. They made their first appearance in Super Mario Bros., and various kinds of them have appeared in the Mario games since, normally as enemies. Mario Party... read more The stupidity of Blooper plus water physics equals the worst enemy in Mario.
WHAT! Don't say you don't remember him. Culex is an optional boss in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. He has four Elemental Crystals, all with high defense and attack, and altogether they have about 20,000 HP.
He has even more HP than both forms of Smithy.
Yes, he's ridiculously hard, but he isn't a regular enemy - he's a boss, so he doesn't count.
Holy crap! She is so annoying with how she can put you to sleep, hurt you really badly, and run away! The only upside is that she can be valuable.
I got killed by these when I first played this game. First battle in the woods - BAM! 20 damage, insta-kill!
Actually, most power-ups, including the Fire Flower, can kill a Spiny. They're technically Goombas that can't be stomped on.
I think you're confusing them with the kind that has one needle, which is immune to most power-ups, like a Buzzy Beetle. These can't be jumped on, and they aren't spawned by any kind of Lakitu.
Just spin jump if you don't have a special power-up!
The Piranha Plant, known as the Pakkun Flower in Japan, is a plant species from the Mario franchise which usually appears as a leafy green stalk topped with a white-spotted red or green globe, with a maw lined with sharp teeth reminiscent of piranhas.
If you see these things, your only choice is to run! I mean, who the hell came up with these guys?
While they're not too hard to get away from, doing so while collecting red coins is a challenge.
These guys are annoying. They throw spiked balls at you from a high platform or a flying block, so they move around. Those spikes are big, so it is hard to jump at the last minute.
You also have to speed run from the stone Spike. They throw spike balls from above.
God damn, Bowser uses three power-ups that you can use: the cherry one and the cat one.
