10 Most Underrated Weapons In Gaming

Long-time Super Smash Bros. fans will know that Samus Aran is anything but a close-quarters fighter. The Metroid series protagonist is all about keep-away, with a range of effective projectiles in her repertoire that demand a response from the opponent.

As with all zoning characters, Samus struggles when the foe manages to close the distance. The effectiveness of her ranged moves is something that even players starting out using her can grasp, but one particular aspect of her kit is often underutilized.

Samus has always been an underrated Super Smash Bros. combatant herself, but her Bomb is often disregarded. It can be tough to resist firing off a hail of Missiles and Charge Shots and almost relying on that alone, but an experienced Samus player knows that the undervalued Bomb can work wonders.

A low-damage, non-flashy move, it nevertheless has great utility. From aiding in your recovery to making your movements less predictable and protecting yourself while Samus is vulnerable in the air, the more this unassuming move is used, the more useful it seems to become.
