If it is forced out or interrupted during its Boost attack, the Boost Guardian will go into the Warrior Ing's puddle form and follow Samus wherever her course is directed. When the Boost Guardian is in this amorphous form, Samus must avoid it via the [[Morph Ball]] and dropping [[Morph Ball Bomb|Bombs]] in its path. After the Boost Guardian has been impacted by enough Bombs, it will revert into its vulnerable solid form. | ||

The Boost Ball can also be used as an offensive move against enemies attacking Samus in her Morph Ball form. The Boost Ball is very useful in escaping a [[Metroid (species)|Metroid]] before it grips onto Samus in this form. | ||
