Boo - Mario Superstar Baseball

First off, I dont think theres a single appearance of Boo that isnt great. This guy is ALWAYS fun to play as, be it in Mario Party, Tennis, Golf, Baseball, or Strikers. Always having the tricky classification gives him this constant unique niche thats fun to play around with, and even in his non-playable appearances, he makes a huge impact in Kart, Party, and even stuff like Super Mario Bros Deluxe. Boos a standout Mario character and really deserves to be celebrated as such.

Boo is the undoubted best pitcher in Mario Superstar Baseball. He has the highest base pitching stat in the game, tied with Waluigi, but throws the ball slightly slower than Wah. This gives him curveballs that are just outright impossible to throw in reality, letting him dominate the plate however he would like to mix up opponents. You WILL see Boo every game, and while Diddy, Dixie, Waluigi, and occasionally Goomba as a rogue choice, whichever team has Boo will have a slight advantage. On top of that, all of Boos competition for pitchers have bats that are alright, but require skill and finesse to land singles. Boo is one of the best singles hitters in the game, possessing the hidden ability that makes his balls have a curved trajectory when he hits them, shared only between himself, King Boo, and Boomerang Bro. While the latter two are power hitters that utilize the ability to steal wacky home runs, Boo is dedicated to hitting the ball into no mans land, right at the foul line and letting it roll over, giving him almost guaranteed singles and very likely doubles. And on top of that, if he happens to give up seven runs, he has the Super Jump ability, letting him play the corner bases well as he nabs high foul balls out of the air. And considering that Waluigi is an excellent 1st Baseman and Boo has chemistry with Wario, who often compliments Waluigi on 1st base, a Wario/Waluigi/Boo core can very effectively lock the right infield down and ensure that pitching is never a problem. Boo is a benefit to every single team hes on, with his only limitations being that he cannot swing a game on his own; he is here solely to provide the most consistency and reliability out of any character in the game.
