How to Beat Great Conductor

Great Conductor Strategy
Find the Real Brother Follow the Real Brother During the Shuffle Damage the Caps During Boss Attacks Perform an EXCELLENT Bros. Attack

Find the Real Brother

At the start of the battle, the Great Conductor will grab one of the bros., create multiple copies of him, and place a pink cap over each one. The remaining brother must then break the cap hiding the real brother before attempting any attacks on the Great Conductor.

Before you make your guess, the Great Conductor will prompt the bros. in caps to move, giving you a chance to identify the real brother. The real brother will move in a familiar way, while the fakes will display unusual movements.

The Real Mario Stretches His Right Arm While Idle and Holds His Hammer Over the Shoulder

The real Mario stretches his right arm in a circular motion while idle. He also holds his hammer over his shoulder before attacking, and keeps it angled downward after swinging.

The Real Luigi Stretches His Legs When Jumping and Points Up While Idle

The real Luigi stretches his legs when jumping, and while idle, he touches his cheek and points upward.

Follow the Real Brother During the Shuffle

In the second phase of the battle, the Great Conductor will begin shuffling the pink caps after making them move. The shuffling is slow enough for you to track the real brother.

Damage the Caps During Boss Attacks

Breaking the caps may take multiple hits, even with the right gear. To maximize damage, jump on top of the real brother's cap or hit it with a hammer during the Great Conductor’s attacks.

Perform an EXCELLENT Bros. Attack

After freeing the real brother from the pink cap, the Great Conductor will ask you to perform an EXCELLENT Bros. Attack at him. Go for an easy Bros. Attack, such as any of the Shells (Red or Green) or Mario's Bomb Derby, for the best chance to hit an EXCELLENT attack.
