Laser Brain Attack

The Lazer Brain Attack (as named in the Super Metroid Nintendo Player's Guide) is one of Mother Brain's attacks in Super Metroid. It is a multicolor flashing beam, similar to the Hyper Beam, that can trap Samus from moving. This attack will inevitably leave Samus with 1 Energy, and prompt the Baby to come to her rescue and then leech the life from Mother Brain.
