| The '''Firebrand''' is one of the two types of Hand Powers that is used by [[Mario]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the other being the [[Thunderhand]], which is used by [[Luigi]]. Mario is taught this power by [[Firebrand and Thunderhand|Firebrand]] in the [[Fire Palace]], and is taught an [[Dash (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|advanced technique]] by the [[Jellyfish Sisters]], allowing Mario to burn Luigi so he can charge ahead extremely quickly.

To use this move, the player must have Mario as the lead brother, switch to the Firebrand command using {{button|gba|R}}/{{button|gba|L}}, and hold down {{button|gba|A}}, which causes Mario to conjure up a fireball in his hand.

| In battle, the Firebrand can be used offensively against enemies. Using the Firebrand on red [[Oho Jee]]s in the overworld will cause them to go wild and attack Mario and Luigi, forcing them into a battle. When using it, the player must press {{button|gba|A}} when Mario fully charges the fireball to perform the move successfully. Failure in doing so will result in Mario scorching himself and the move dealing less damage. Some enemies like [[Glurp]]s or [[Spiky Snifit]]s have a weakness to the Firebrand, and in a few cases, they can only be damaged by it. Other enemies (like [[Bowletta]]'s normal form and [[Mom Piranha]]'s red form) get healed by it instead. | | In battle, the Firebrand can be used offensively against enemies.

The Firebrand is one of the two types of Hand Powers that is used by Mario in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, the other being the Thunderhand, which is used by Luigi.

This can be used to pass through fast-moving spiked barrels, as well as move cannonball-like objects and knock down Ankoopas (Big Koopa Troopas in the remake) blocking the path. To use this move, the player must have Mario as the lead brother, switch to the Firebrand command by using

When using it, the player must press when Mario fully charges the fireball to perform the move successfully. Failure in doing so results in Mario scorching himself and the move dealing less damage.
