Variant of Ant Trooper

Big Ant Troopers[1] are enemies in Super Mario 3D World and Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They are encountered in Ant Trooper Hill only, although one Big Ant Trooper is also found in a secret room in Sprawling Savanna. These larger variants of Ant Troopers cannot be defeated with any attack, even if players are under the effects of a Super Star, Invincible Super Leaf, or Invincibility Bell, though they can be bounced on.

Big Ant Troopers and their smaller counterparts are enemies in Super Mario Maker 2. They are course elements exclusive to the Super Mario 3D World level style. Big Ant Troopers can now be defeated using POW Blocks or from being crushed by Thwomps or objects. Big Ant Troopers can be given wings and parachutes as well.
