Magmads are volcano-shapedenemies composed of magma that appear inMario & Luigi: Dream Team andMario & Luigi: Brothership. Their name is a portmanteau of "magma" and "mad".
History[edit]
Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]
InMario & Luigi: Dream Team, Magmads are encountered in the snowy portion ofDreamy Mount Pajamaja. In the field, Magmads engulf themselves in flames and chase afterMario andDreamy Luigi upon sight, stopping after exhausting themselves, where they can then be easily hit with aFirst Strike briefly. If not disturbed, Magmads wander around aimlessly.
In battle, Magmads cannot be jumped on due to their flaming heads. Magmads usually appear in battle with their colder counterparts,Iceads, and thus often attack together. Magmads (usually with Iceads, although Magmads will not stack up with Iceads) can attack by approaching Mario from the front and back sides of him and forming a stack on either or both sides if there are more than two enemies involved in the attack. The Magmads and Iceads will then start firing fiery and icy blasts respectively one at a time at Mario, who mustjump over the ground level blasts and idle under higher level blasts in order to avoid taking damage. If a fiery blast misses Mario, it will continue on to hit whatever is straight ahead if anything, dealing 30 damage in normal mode, and 37 damage in hard mode towards Iceads and healing 30 HP towards Magmads.
Magmads (usually with Iceads) can also attack by making itself liquid and oozing to one of Mario's unoccupied four sides, up to four enemies being involved in this attack. Occasionally, one of them will stick part of its head out before to re-solidifying itself and firing either a fiery or icy blast at Mario. He must keep facing andhammering the Magmad or Icead who sticks their head out until the attack ends to avoid taking damage.
A Magmad may also individually approach Mario and charge into him while engulfed in fire, repeating this several times as it goes back and forth. Mario must jump over the Magmad before it hits him to avoid taking damage. Occasionally during this attack, the Magmad's flames may extinguish and it will be vulnerable to being jumped on while in that state. The Magmad's attacks can also give Mario theburn status effect.
A Magmad transforms into an Icead if it takes damage.
Mario & Luigi: Brothership[edit]
Magmads return inMario & Luigi: Brothership, where they are encountered inHeatfreeze Island alongsideIceads. Magmads have a flame atop their heads, damaging the Bros if they try to use a jump attack on them; unlike how flaming enemies were treated in previous games, they are categorized in this game as "spiked" enemies, and therefore are affected by the Anti-Spike SpecialistBattle Plug and Blunt Hammer. In the field, Magmads spit fireballs at intruders into their territory. Their idle animation has been changed to swaying left and right instead of bobbing up and down, and their attack has been changed to a headbutt, whichMario andLuigi can block with a hammer strike; failure to repel the Magmad allows them to burn the target. A Magmad can also use a strafing fire breath move that must be jumped over, and can flag another Magmad (or an Icead) down to assist them; the Magmad or Icead that was flagged down loses their next turn. Additionally, if there is more than one Magmad, two Magmads can bounce a fireball between themselves, shifting towards a Bro. That Bro. must use his hammer to repel the fireball before he gets hit.Glohm Magmads appear onSkorcheen Island, and replace the regular Magmads on Heatfreeze Island whenReclusa awakens.
DuringPipegunk's battle,Shun can boost its power by moving the arena into a magma chamber with his remote. In this state, it resembles a Magmad, right down to having their head flame and receiving the "spike" status.
