Magic Shot

Each team leader has their own Magic Shot. The Magic Shot can be used when the magic bar is filled by either catching thrown balls or hitting the opponent. To activate the Magic Shot, the team leader must run and then jump, at the highest point of their jump, they must throw. The shot is accompanied by an animation, and will reduce all opponents life bar to 1. The only exception to this is Jim, his Magic Shot heals all of his teammates.
