The Ice Spreader is a Charge Combo for the Ice Beam. It uses a charged Ice Beam shot and 10 Missiles, to create a powerful blast of ice that can travel up to 20 meters until it reaches a target. When this occurs, the shot explodes and creates a giant, incapacitating wall of ice that spreads over the target and surrounding area at fast speeds. The target and nearby enemies will either die or be frozen, allowing Samus to quickly dispatch them with the Plasma Beam or Missile Launcher. It is very useful for freezing or killing large numbers of ground based enemies quickly.

[edit] Trivia

  • When used on Metroid Prime when viable, it freezes the creature's face over, and this stops it from moving altogether, despite its limbs and body being free to move.
