Character Power – Beta Barrage (Circle/B)
Brainiac orders a Beta to attack the enemy:
- Beta Strike (Circle/B) – A Beta flies at the opponent
- Beta Bomb (Down + Circle/B) – A Beta drops an ion bomb on the opponent
Supermove – Skull Ship (R2+L2/RT+LT)
Brainiac sends a tentacle forward to grab the enemy. This move is blockable, and Brainiac can be up to medium distance from the opponent. If successful, Brainiac kicks them across the arena where four Betas drop down to hold the enemy in place. Brainiac’s Skull Ship appears above and fires a powerful laser on the enemy.
