10 Most Unique Ways You Killed Video Game Bosses

3. Conduct Electricity Through Samus To Electrocute Draygon - Super Metroid

Metal Gear Solid 3 The Fear

The conventional way to defeat Super Metroid's tough boss Draygon is to pelt him in the stomach with missiles until dead, though the game also allows creative players to rustle up an altogether simpler solution.

For starters, shooting the cannons attached to the walls will expose the dangerous electric current flowing inside, after which you need to let Draygton grab Samus and start flying around.

Wait until you're within grappling distance of one of the exposed outlets and use your Grappling Beam to attach to it. This will allow you to conduct electricity through Samus' body and turn Draygon into a crispy critter in mere seconds.

You'll lose about 60 HP yourself while doing so, but considering how it otherwise turns the battle into a total joke, it's absolutely worth it.
