Editing Hyper Strike

A '''Hyper Strike''' is a type of special move in ''[[Mario Strikers: Battle League]]''. It acts as the successor to the [[Super Strike]]s and [[Mega Strike]]s from ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]'' and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'' respectively, though unlike those moves, each Hyper Strike has slightly different effects in the actual gameplay, rather than just aesthetic differences, making them comparable to the [[Special Shot]]s in ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]''. Like the Super Strike, Hyper Strikes grant two points instead of one if they score.

The player first needs to collect a [[Strike Orb]] which occasionally appears on the field, which will allow anyone on that team to use it once they have the ball and are on the other side of the field. In order to activate the Hyper Strike, the player in possession of the ball needs to perform a charged shot, which will cause their surroundings to slow down while a meter known as the Hyper Meter will appear. The meter resembles the one used for the Mega Strike, being a black arched meter with two sides with a teal zone, and two orange zones surrounding it. When the Hyper Meter appears, a white needle will start sliding across it. The player then needs to time a press of {{button|switch|a}} so that the needle lands as close as it can to the teal zone of both sides, giving the Hyper Strike the highest possible power. If they land a side in the orange zone instead, the Hyper Strike will be slightly less powerful, while landing it in the black zone will make it weaker.

When a Hyper Strike is activated, a cutscene will initiate showing the character performing their specific actions. During that time, the visuals will transition into a cel-shaded style (similar to the artwork for the series) as the characters are preparing to shoot the ball. Right before they are about to shoot it, three freeze-frames of their face are shown, with the third one showing a close-up of their eyes covered in flames of a particular color. After shooting the ball, the game will transition back to regular gameplay showing their Hyper Strike in action. Each Hyper Strike conceptually does the same thing, which first involves knocking out or immobilizing any opponents in the way before shooting itself towards the goal, though how it does it and who it can affect differs between characters.

If the white needle is stopped in the teal zone on both sides of the Hyper Meter, the Hyper Strike outright guarantees a goal, as the ball automatically bypasses the opposing team's [[Boom Boom]] goalie without giving him the chance to stop it. However, if the meter did not land on the teal on both sides, then the ball will stop at Boom Boom right in front of the goal. At this point, the player will have to repeatedly press {{button|switch|a}} to fill an arrow-shaped meter that stops the Hyper Strike from reaching the goal. However, the strength of the Hyper Strike will affect how much pressing the button will be required, with the more well-timed ones requiring more effort to block. Blocking a weaker Hyper Stike will have Boom Boom catch it and throw it to his teammates. Successfully blocking a stronger Hyper Strike will have Boom Boom deflect it, but stun him for a few seconds, which can result in the other team kicking the ball in the goal while he is down. Failing to block the Hyper Strike will result in it going through Boom Boom, giving the other team a goal.

| Luigi tosses the ball up and in front of him with his feet. After spinning around, he kicks the ball forward, with his kick causing the ball to start spinning around, creating a tornado. Opposing players that are too close to the tornado will be sucked in and thrown into the sky, allowing the tornado to shoot the ball into the goal. After the Hyper Strike ends, players that were thrown upwards by the tornado will come crashing back down.

| width=15% align=center| '''Banana Blast'''
|Donkey Kong, while holding the ball in one hand, takes out a banana with the other and eats it all in one bite. Empowered by the banana, he then throws the ball in the air and jumps after it. At the peak of the jump, he slams the ball down with his palm, causing a large shockwave that knocks other players around and sending the ball downwards towards the goal in a banana-shaped arch.
|-

| width=15% align=center| '''Propeller Dive'''
| Shy Guy kicks the ball high up and a [[Fly Guy]] will appear carrying him upward. After that, he does a quick twirl before throwing Shy Guy toward the ball. While twirling, Shy Guy then headbutts the ball, where it will create a twirl of wind as it goes toward the goal. Any opponents getting caught in will spun around it and be thrown off afterward.
|-

| width=15% align=center| '''Flower Spiral'''
| Daisy tosses the ball up, and bounces it on her knee before juggling the ball with her feet and bouncing it off with her rear end. As she kicks the ball, it will then move in a spiral pattern leaving behind a trail of flowers. If any opponents get caught on one of the flowers when they bloom, they will be sent upward. Once the ball is at the center, it will then shoot straight to the goal leaving behind a mark of Daisy's emblem on the ground.
|-
! colspan=3 style="background:#D24134; | [[Pauline|<font color=white>Pauline</font>]]

| Pauline tosses the ball upwards with her feet, and then quickly catches a microphone that is tossed to her from offscreen. She will then knock the microphone into the ground before kicking down on the stand with her foot, causing the microphone to swing upwards and hit the ball. The ball will go upwards in an arch before touching the ground, which is when a bunch of music notes will attack opponents that are too close, causing them to be shocked. The ball will then shoot itself into the goal.
|-
! colspan=3 style="background:#FFBA10" | [[Diddy Kong|<font color=black>Diddy Kong</font>]]
|-
| width=30% align=center| {{anchor|Barrel Boom}}[[File:MSBL Diddy Hyper Strike.jpg|200px]]
| width=15% align=center| '''Barrel Boom'''
| While standing on his hands, Diddy Kong whistles, summoning a [[Barrel Cannon]]. Diddy Kong then does a flip kick to send the ball upwards before backflipping into the Barrel Cannon. The Barrel Cannon will fire Diddy Kong into the ball, which he hits with his tail. The ball will loop around once before splitting off into five energy blasts, the middle of which contains the ball and goes into the goal. Anyone that gets hit by the energy blasts will start continuously spinning.
|-
! colspan=3 style="background:#F57323" | [[Bowser Jr.|<font color=white>Bowser Jr.</font>]]
|-
| width=30% align=center| {{anchor|Twisting Knuckleball}}[[File:MSBL Bowser Jr. Hyper Strike.jpg|200px]]
| width=15% align=center| '''Twisting Knuckleball'''
| Bowser Jr. slams the ball to the ground hard enough that it flies upwards. Then, the [[Junior Clown Car]] appears, which Bowser Jr. hops into, before flying upwards towards the ball. The Junior Clown Car then takes out its boxing gloves, spins around and strikes the ball with full force with one of its fists, causing it to fly around in circular motions multiple times. Bowser Jr. himself will then spin around in his Clown Car, knocking back anyone who comes in contact with it, before the Junior Clown Car finally explodes, creating a massive shockwave and sending the ball flying straight towards the goal.
|-
! colspan=3 style="background:#BC42FF" | [[Birdo|<font color=white>Birdo</font>]]
|-
| width=30% align=center| {{anchor|Jewel Dance}}[[File:MSBL Birdo Hyper Strike.jpg|200px]]
| width=15% align=center| '''Jewel Dance'''
| Birdo sucks the ball in her nozzle, then proceeds to spit out three egg-shaped disco balls, the last of which contains the ball. She then starts twirling around and kicks the egg containing the ball, causing it to shatter and the ball to bounce on the other two disco balls, which produce shockwaves that cause anyone who comes in contact with them to twirl in place for a few seconds. After bouncing on the third and final egg, the ball flies towards the goal.
