Leader Super Special Moves (リーダー超必殺技ちょうひっさつわざ; lit. Leader Super Sure-Killing Art), sometimes stylized as LEADER Super Special Moves, are a type of Super Special Move used in The King of Fighters 2003 and The King of Fighters XI (due to the Tag Battle System of the two games).

This kind of Super Move requires 2 stocks of Super Meter, and can only be used by the Team Leader; this is always the first selected character in 2003, but can be selected in the latter game.
