Freeze a Mella at a precise distance below the door in order to crouch-jump up and clip through the door shell. The pixel window is larger and higher with Morph and an X-Ray stand-up, in which case a standing jump is used. Requires: "canManipulateMellas" "h_canIceClip" Bypasses door shell: true |

Lure a Mella from the right by breaking the speed blocks or using Morph. Then you need to manipulate it to go high enough to be used as a stepping stone once frozen. Requires: "canTrickyUseFrozenEnemies" "canManipulateMellas" { "or": [ { "obstaclesCleared": [ "B" ] }, "Morph" ] } |

Left Door
Lure a Mella from the right by breaking the speed blocks or using Morph. Then manipulate it to go high enough to be used in the left doorway. Raise the Mella up to just below the door's ledge then climb up to the door. Then the Mella will start moving upward, which means it comes at you partially blind. Getting it to reach the door, and not just short of the door is the hardest part. If it drops below the camera it will be necessary to go back down and raise it some more.
