The attack is semi-automated. Once Samus jumps on an enemies head, her [[Charge Beam]] charges automatically and Samus must shoot. Once she shoots, she jumps off instantly and the foe is pushed back or to the ground. If Samus does not shoot while she is on the enemy creature, the enemy may push Samus off. Different creatures will push Samus off at different times.

Uses

Allows Samus to attack enemies at certain times from above

The Overblast is an ability only appearing in Metroid: Other M. This technique allows Samus to hold a Charge Beam and greatly damage an enemy by shooting it behind the neck. This technique can be used with any beam and only with certain enemies.

In most cases, Samus can only use the Overblast to already downed enemies. Unlike the Lethal Strike, it does not necessarily defeat the enemy in one shot. In fact, it can be used multiple times on a single enemy. It can also be used multiple times between two or more enemies, keeping Samus off the ground and above the enemies. This attack is exceptionally powerful and does destroy certain enemies, such as Sidehoppers, in one shot.

The attack is semi-automated. Once Samus jumps on an enemies head, her Charge Beam charges automatically and Samus must shoot. Once she shoots, she jumps off instantly and the foe is pushed back or to the ground. If Samus does not shoot while she is on the enemy creature, the enemy may push Samus off. Different creatures will push Samus off at different times.
