Grapple Beam

The Grapple Beam was one of Samus Aran's many weapons. It first appeared in Super Metroid. The Grapple Beam was used to latch onto certain surfaces, giving Samus some new manuevers such as swinging from the ceiling. Notably, the Grapple Beam can be used to kill Draygon quickly by grabbing one of the electrified surfaces while in the grip of the boss.

Since Super Metroid, the Grapple Beam has appeared in Super Smash Bros. and its sequel as Samus's throw.
