The Elder Shrooboid's spikes normally make it immune to any jump-based attacks and [[Bros. Item]]s, and it takes critical damage from the [[Ice Flower]]. Its first attack involves trapping Mario and Luigi in crystals, similar to [[Shroid]]s, and then grabbing a ball and chain. The Bros. must [[jump]] to break their crystal prisons and dodge the ball and chain as it spins towards them; the spinning eventually causes the Shrooboid to become dizzy, making it drop the ball and fall over. It then gets up again, screams in a rage, and angrily knocks the ball at either of the Mario Bros., while lunging head first into the other brother; the metallic ball will have either an "M" (for Mario) or an "L" (for Luigi) to represent its target. Both Bros. must jump to dodge the attacks.

The Elder Shrooboid can also perform a spin attack similar to the Junior Shrooboid, which the Baby Mario Bros. must counter with their [[hammer]]s; the Elder Shrooboid continues trying to spin into the Bros. pairs repeatedly, requiring multiple counterattacks. The Elder Shrooboid can also throw [[fireball]]s much like [[Blazing Shroob]]s, and may shoot two fireballs at once; these can be dodged with well-timed jumps.
