The '''Striker Cup''' is the final tournament in the [[Wii]] game, ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. It is the hardest tournament in the game, surpassing both the [[Fire Cup]] and [[Crystal Cup]], in difficulty. The player enters this tournament after he/she beats the Crystal Cup's champion. In the preliminaries, the player has to challenge nine different opponents, each one a different captain than the last. The player has to get into the Top 8 out of 10 to move on, based on points (3 for each win, 0 for each loss, 1 for each sudden-death loss). Each challenger is randomized, so the player does not know who his next opponent will be. After the player has surpassed all nine preliminary rounds, he/she makes it to the finals, which consists of three challengers. #1 plays #8, #2 plays #7, #3 plays #6, and #4 plays #5 in the quarterfinals, the top seed of the four winners plays the low seed and the middle two play each other in the semi-finals, and those two winners play in the finals – the player must start all over if ''any'' of these three matches are lost, even in sudden death. However, if the player wins all three finals matches, he/she moves onto the Championship Round. The current Champion on the players first time in the tournament, will be [[Petey Piranha]]. However, after he/she beats Petey, when they go back to the Striker Cup afterwards, the Champion will be randomized, instead of just being Petey all the time. The player must beat the Champion and his/her team on the [[Stormship Stadium]], in a game of three series. If the player wins two of these series, he/she will win the game, and the tournament, but if the Champion wins two series, he/she wins the tournament, and continues as the Champion. The player must start over from the beginning of the Striker Cup, if this happens. There is no other tournament after this cup.
The '''Striker Cup''' is the third and final tournament of ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'', available in the Road to the Strikers Cup mode after beating the [[Fire Cup]] and [[Crystal Cup]]. It is the most difficult tournament in the game. It consists of nine preliminary matches, three final matches, and the championship game.

The Striker Cup on a pedestal

The Striker Cup is the third and final tournament of Mario Strikers Charged, available in the Road to the Strikers Cup mode after beating the Fire Cup and Crystal Cup. It is the most difficult tournament in the game. It consists of nine preliminary matches, three final matches, and the championship game.

In the preliminary round, the player must face nine different randomly-selected captains and their teams. In order to move on to the next round, the player's team must get into the Top 8 of the 10 teams via points (3 for each match won, 0 for each match lost, 1 for each match lost at sudden-death). The next round consists of three matches- the quarter-finals, the semi-finals, and the finals. In each match, the highest seed will always play the next available lowest seed (i.e. #1 vs. #8, #2 vs. #7, etc.). If the player wins all three of their final matches, they will move on to the championship game.

During the first playthrough of the Striker Cup, the opponent in the championship game will be Petey Piranha, but during subsequent playthroughs, the defending champion will be randomly selected. The championship game is a three-match series against the champion on the Stormship Stadium. If the player wins two of the three matches, they will win the Striker Cup. However, the player must start it over entirely if they lose either the final or championship round. Upon winning the Striker Cup for the first time, Petey Piranha and the Stormship Stadium are unlocked. Earning both the Brick Wall and Golden Foot Awards during the Crystal Cup unlocks the Galactic Stadium as well.
