Laser Beam

Laser Beam is a special ability in the two games, Mario Superstar Baseball and Mario Super Sluggers. This ability is used by Waluigi, Bowser and Donkey Kong in Mario Superstar Baseball, and Wario and King K. Rool in Mario Super Sluggers. Piantas are also able to use the ability in both games. When this ability activates as the certain player throws the ball to home base, it flies at a lot higher speeds than a normal throw. In Mario Superstar Baseball, the Laser Beam's speed depends on the character throwing the ball; Waluigi's Laser Beam is slower than Bowser's Laser Beam. In Mario Super Sluggers, it will travel at the same speed, regardless of thrower.

In Mario Super Sluggers, there is one scout mission in Wario City that revolves on the Laser Beam. The player needs to get a runner out with the Laser Beam throw three times. If the scout mission is completed, Boo will join the player's team.
