The Fire Cup is the first Tournament in ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''. It is only played in the '''Road to the Strikers Cup''' mode. It is split into two rounds, the preliminary rounds, and the final round. During the preliminary, the player must challenge three other captains and their teams, and after they win against those three, they must challenge them a second time before heading to the finals (one away, one at home for each captain). These challengers are randomly picked by the game, so the player can never tell who they will be going up against. If the player has won enough points (3 for each win, 0 for each loss, 1 for each sudden-death loss) at the end of these six matches, they have made it into the Top 2, and will face the other CPU team. If the player wins this match, they move on into the Cup Final and challenge the Current Champion in a best 2 out of 3. However, if the player loses, then they will have to restart the Fire Cup. On the player's first time in the Fire Cup, the Current Champion will be [[Bowser Jr.]], but after he is beaten, it will be randomized like every other challenge. The stadium in the Championship Match will always be [[The Lava Pit]]. After beating the Champion, the player moves onto the [[Crystal Cup]] and unlocks [[Bowser Jr.]] and The Lava Pit; earning both the Golden Foot and Brick Wall Awards unlocks The Wastelands.
During the first playthrough of the Fire Cup, the defending champion will be [[Bowser Jr.]], but during subsequent playthroughs, it will be randomized like every other challenge. The stadium in the championship match will always be [[The Lava Pit]]. The player must win two out of three matches in the game to win the cup and move on to the [[Crystal Cup]]. However, if they lose either the finals match or the championship game, they must start the cup over again entirely. After beating the champion, the player unlocks [[Bowser Jr.]] and The Lava Pit. Additionally, earning both the Golden Foot and Brick Wall Awards during the Fire Cup unlocks [[The Wastelands]].

The Fire Cup is a tournament introduced in Mario Power Tennis as the first of two cups in the Gimmick Masters tournament. It takes place in three courts, in no particular order: Luigi's Mansion Court, Gooper Blooper Court, and DK Jungle Court. Its difficulty is comparable to the Mushroom Cup. Completing this cup allows the player to proceed to the Thunder Cup, the final cup of the tournament.

The Fire Cup is also the first Tournament in Mario Strikers Charged in the Road to the Strikers Cup mode. It is split into three rounds- preliminary, final, and championship. During the preliminary round, the player must challenge three other randomly-chosen captains and their teams twice, once away from their home court and once at it for each captain. Every captain is fought once before the pattern is repeated. In order to move on to the final round, the player's team must get into the top 2 of the 4 teams via points (3 for each match won, 0 for each match lost, 1 for each match lost at sudden-death). The finals match is against another random CPU team on a random court. If the player wins this match, they will move onto the championship game, and challenge the current champion.

During the first playthrough of the Fire Cup, the defending champion will be Bowser Jr., but during subsequent playthroughs, it will be randomized like every other challenge. The stadium in the championship match will always be The Lava Pit. The player must win two out of three matches in the game to win the cup and move on to the Crystal Cup. However, if they lose either the finals match or the championship game, they must start the cup over again entirely. After beating the champion, the player unlocks Bowser Jr. and The Lava Pit. Additionally, earning both the Golden Foot and Brick Wall Awards during the Fire Cup unlocks The Wastelands.
