Super Strike
A Super Strike is a powerful soccer shot that only captains can perform in Mario Smash Football and is worth two points, instead of one. If pulled off perfectly, the strike becomes unstoppable, powerful enough to knock the goalie into the goal and instantly score. Super Strikes do not appear in in Mario Strikers Charged Football. Instead, Mario Strikers Charged Football introduces a new kind of Super Strike called Mega Strike. Mega Strikes are more powerful Super Strikes in the game that can be worth up to six (6) goals.

The Robo-Strike is a conjectural term used to describe the unnamed Super Strike of all of the members of the Super Team in Mario Smash Football. The strike looks similar to Waluigi's, and can be executed by any member of the Super Team, since the team has no captain. To pull off the strike, the Robotic Nightmare kicks the ball into the air and then surrounds itself with a yellow ring. Once the ring transforms into a circle, the robot kicks the ball into the goal.
