Overload PLMs using the scroll block next to the bottom right bomb blocks, allowing passage through them by making them become air. If Morph is unavailable, then careful movement will be required to get past the Pirates without taking a hit from them or their stationary, invisible lasers. If using a PB to kill the pirates, overload the PLMs at the bottom. If the top bomb block is hit with a PB before PLMs are overloaded, they will remain solid. Entrance condition: {

It may be necessary to lure it to the right. At this point, the farm can be used to gain energy. Jump into the thorns to get invulnerability frames, then run through, luring the Beetoms under the platforms while clearing and using the farms. Note that it is possible to shake a Beetom off of Samus by rapidly turning left and right, or angling up and down, etc. Samus will take 2-4 hits. Requires: {

Set up three frozen Beetoms, in a such a way that Samus can perform a moonfall between the two upper ones and land on the bottom one, then leave the room with stored fall speed. The bottom one should be frozen flush with the ledge, by shooting it while it is attached to Samus, standing on the lower floor. The top one should be frozen close to the ceiling. Because of an asymmetry in where Samus' shot spawns when facing left vs. right, moonfalling to the left has an advantage in that it allows refreezing both the lower two Beetoms while building up speed. Damage from attached Beetoms occurs once every 64 frames, based on the enemy's frame counter, which increments whenever the enemy is active regardless of whether it is attached to Samus; therefore, it is possible to avoid damage by not having a Beetom attached at these specific times.

Use a Power Bombs to kill the first three hoppers, or carefully roll under the third one. The next hopper can be killed safely with many Bombs by staying on the top left of the raised ground; stay near the left edge of it without overhanging - otherwise it can hit Samus. Alternatively, lure and spring ball jump past it. Placing a Bomb next to a bug pipe can kill a bug inside of it. After killing a bug from a pipe, they will stop respawning there. The last hopper can be carefully killed with Bombs, killed with a Power Bomb, or dodged and lured off the edge. Getting past the last bug pipe can be the trickiest. This is easiest with an IBJ directly below the pipe until the bug spawns, then quickly boost horizontally and move to the left. Get as far right as possible without another bug spawning, IBJ then boost horizontally at the top. Entrance condition: {

While using multiple Power Bomb boost Spring Ball jumps, to climb the room, overload PLMs by moving through the camera scroll blocks in front of the passageway leading to the exit of Spore Spawn Supers. Note that one Power Bomb can be saved with a Spring Fling from the lower item pedestal; pause and just before the screen is fully black, jump, disable Spring ball, then buffer right on the unpause. Another can be saved by carefully jumping out of this morph passageway. Drop into the Sidehopper pit and dodge the hoppers while getting up to the crumble block tunnel. Alternatively, carefully dodge the Reos below them and use a well-placed Power Bomb to kill both Reos and Sidehoppers. Entrance condition: {

Left Side - Middle Doorway (Behind the Power Bomb Blocks)
Freeze a Zeb inside the left wall of the room, and use it to clip into the wall and X-Ray climb. Note that jumping directly against the wall to clip into it will put Samus into a forced crouch, unable to use X-Ray. Samus may either 1) perform a Crystal Flash to stand up, 2) use neutral knockback from a Reo to put Samus standing inside the wall, or 3) use the frozen Reo as a platform to run and clip into the wall. To manipulate the Reo into a suitable position, lure it to the left and crouch at the edge of the platform; jump as needed to bring it back on camera when it goes off; it should perform 4 big swoops down to the left, 2 small swoops (hitting the overhang above), then 5 more big swoops, after which it will enter a slow hover moving directly towards Samus. Freeze the Reo when its left side is approximately flush with the ledge, or up to about a tile to the right. After X-Ray climbing about 1.5 screens, the sound of the crumble blocks breaking is an indication that it is safe to end the climb, either by jumping up or by falling out to the right. Alternatively, there's no harm in continuing to climb, as the lack of door means it's impossible to climb beyond the destination. Requires: {

"canXRayClimb"Dev note: The Zeb moves 2 pixels per frame, and there are 3 positions where it can be frozen inside the wall using Ice beam alone, namely 2 pixels, 4 pixels, or 6 pixels deep inside the wall. For the method that uses the frozen Reo as a platform, only the 2-pixel-deep position will work; by moonwalking back inside the 2-tile space, it will work 100% reliably as long as the Zeb is frozen in that exact spot. For the method that jumps directly into the wall (with a Crystal Flash), either 2 or 4 pixels can work, or 6 with SpeedBooster; it will work more reliably the less deeply the Zeb is frozen inside the wall. Likewise, with the Reo knockback method either 2 or 4 pixels can work, though it is more reliable in the 2-pixel position; it helps to take the knockback a few pixels away from the wall, as it takes a few frames for the horizontal speed of the knockback to reach its maximum. The trick can work with Samus facing either toward or away from the wall when taking knockback; facing away makes it easier to quickly kill the Reo afterward to avoid taking a second hit. |

Freeze the Reo when its left side is approximately flush with the ledge, or up to about a tile to the right. After X-Ray climbing a little over half a screen, it is possible to aim up and shoot the door (if it is blue) and listen for if it opens, to test if you are high enough to safely jump up.

Either manipulate it until it can escape, get it stuck swooping in the top right corner of the stairwell then kill it with Bombs, or avoid it entirely, and go up through the crumble blocks to the left after manipulating the Sidehoppers to be off-camera at the right of their pit. Dodge or kill the Sidehoppers then go through the crumble block. Place a Power Bomb then quickly exit G-mode before it explodes to break the Power Bomb blocks. Requires: "canEnterGMode"

Kill all of the enemies with Bombs. Samus will take a Baby Kraid spike hit while rolling through the invisible projectiles. It is not too difficult to IBJ and then bomb horizontally over the cluster of invisible spikes, but there is some risk because they are invisible.

Quickly kill the Beetoms with Bombs or a Power Bomb. In direct G-mode, Samus has a few i-frames to place a Power Bomb, in indirect G-mode, enter and immediately roll to the left to avoid the first Beetom. With Bombs and without taking any damage, everything is harder. It is recommended to roll in the lower section, placing Bombs, while avoiding touching a Beetom or getting Bomb boosted.

Carefully roll under the Sm. Desgeegas or kill them with a Power Bomb (while avoiding killing the Sova). It is possible to kill a Sova on the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. The local or global Sova can be used. To use the local one, keep it off camera when possible and horizontally boost to jump over both stairs at once. With Spring Ball or a moderately good IBJ, Samus should be able to get through the morph tunnel before the global Sova, otherwise it takes just over a minute for it to return. Entrance condition: {

Ride the Geruta left to reach the missile location by freezing it repeatedly. Stay on its left side when it touches the ceiling for the enemy to continue moving forward. It may not be possible to climb back up to the Geruta if Samus falls. When it moves towards the ceiling, reset Samus' fall speed using an unmorph or by taking knockback damage, in order to wait for the Geruta to fall low enough to refreeze. Requires: {

Bottom Right Door
Use a complex lure to get the right-most Multiviola (which is initially moving to the left) to the bottom right door. Break a specific set of the speed blocks and let the Multiviola bounce off of them before breaking the rest. There are multiple ways to get the Multiviola to the right door, all of which require breaking the speed blocks to the left of the crumble bridge and some to them to the right. Break the speed blocks in one of the following ways: 1. The first 2 columns. 2. The first 8 columns. 3. The entire first chunk (10 columns). 4. The first chunk and all but the last column of the second (leaving an isolated block). 5. The first two chunks and all but the last column of the third (leaving an isolated stack of two blocks). Then let the Multiviola bounce several times until it is in a consistent pattern before breaking the rest. Note that option number 3 puts the Multiviola into an odd pattern where it has two distinct alternating cycles; wait for it to hit the right of the right stalactite, then the wall, then break the remaining blocks.

}Unlocks doors: {"types":["ammo"],"requires":[]}Dev note: It appears that there is no way to get the multiviola to get to one of the upper doors on the shaft; There are two known cycles to get it to start going up, but both get stuck in the same location. The first three Multiviolas aren't able to make it to the right shaft, regardless of how the door and speed blocks are manipulated. The fourth was tested by removing a single column of speed blocks at a time and clearing the rest before and after it gets to its cycle. The bottom door is rarely hit, but opening it during the cycle was not always tested thoroughly. It doesn't appear to be possible to lure it higher, but other things to try include: breaking speed blocks less than a column at a time, breaking some of the blocks then some more (not all of the remaining), or precisely timing the breaking of the crumble blocks. |

Quickly roll to the left side of the room and IBJ through the crumble blocks before GT gets there, if it is alive. Starting from a jump or with a double bomb jump can help speed this up and make it much easier, but Samus needs to bomb slowly near the top to prevent hitting the crumble blocks before PLMs are overloaded. Otherwise, it can help to IBJ through the left-most crumble block, as GT will often jump away when first reaching Samus. The left-most crumble block is the 4th tile away from the wall. With a failed IBJ start, GT often times won't touch Samus if she is Morphed on the ground, and can jump away, giving another chance to IBJ. Entrance condition: {

Kill or dodge the Holtz while crossing the room. With Plasma and Wave or Ice, it is possible to quickly kill the Holtz while at the left door. Otherwise, jump immediately on entry while Samus still has i-frames to get to the left of the first Zebbo and kill it.

With only a runway of 2 tiles (open end) in the other room, the ideal timing for the stutter is to release forward for 3 frames, and repress forward on the last possible frame before the transition. Other timings can work, but will gain the shinecharge further from the door, leaving fewer shinecharge frames remaining. After gaining the shinecharge, continue holding forward in order to make Samus stand. Then turnaround spin jump back toward the door, and continue spin jumping to reach the transition with a shinecharge. Alternatively, with greater difficulty but saving some shinecharge frames, after performing the turnaround spin jump, briefly moonwalk back, then retain momentum by boomeranging forward (switching from pressing backward to pressing forward on the next frame), and arm pump to reach the door quickly.

It is possible to clear the Mochtroid with Power Beam without taking damage, by first firing angle up shots and then switching to angle down shots once the Mochtroid is on top of Samus.

If entering from the sandfall above, come in at the far left of the transition, with either a spin-jump or i-frames, to avoid the Evir shot; land on the right side of the pillar to the left, being careful to not bring left Evir on camera. If coming from the right side of the room, then moonwalk on the center pillar to scroll the camera as far right as possible, to avoid getting hit by an Evir shot; alternatively, jump slightly to the left and freeze the Evir, then return back to the center pillar before jumping across the sand. Freeze the right Evir and jump onto it. Quickly move left and fire an angle-down shot to freeze the left Evir before it descends too far. Jump onto the left Evir, back up to the right side of it to maximize space to build momentum, and jump to the left onto the sand and then onto the ledge. If Samus does not quite get enough height to make it onto the ledge, then break spin, turn around to the right, land on the sand again, and do a turnaround spin-jump to the left. If the Evirs descend too far, it is possible to use a Power Bomb to bring them back up again, but caution is needed to avoid killing the first Evir, and it is difficult to avoid getting shot.

Perform multiple stationary lateral mid-air morphs, while avoiding the Evir projectiles, to cross the room. It is necessary to start the jumps from the far side of the platforms in order to gain more horizontal momentum before entering the sand falls. Falling into the sand will often result in a soft lock.

Standing on Top Left of Mother Brain Tank
Freeze all 3 Rinkas at close to the same time, then quickly jump into the morph nook at the top-left of Mother Brain, and perform a Crystal Flash to stand up. If executed correctly, the Rinkas will not respawn during the Crystal Flash, so Samus will not take damage. Requires: {

Glitch through the Mother Brain Zebetites by using a frozen Rinka and i-frames. Freeze the Rinka at its spawn location, then spin jump or down-back onto it after acquiring i-frames to clip inside of the Zebetite, then jump through. I-frames can be acquired from a Rinka hit, a turret shot, or from the Zebetite itself. Note that Zebetites cause i-frames but deal no damage. If Screw Attack is equipped, then a down-back must be used, since spin jumping will cancel i-frames. With Ice+Wave, Samus can freeze the Rinka from above with an angle-down shot; Otherwise Samus must go below, press against the wall, and freeze it with an upward shot. With Ice+Plasma, Samus must be crouched when firing the shot. Requires: {

"i_MotherBrainBarrier4Clear"Dev note: This technically requires f_KilledZebetites1 to not be set, but there is minimal risk of loss of access, because there is no reason to kill any Zebs without being able to kill them all. It is also possible to Ice Zeb skip through the second Zeb with a morph/unmorph/remorph on a frozen Rinka; this is known as a Remorph Zebetite Skip or a Spring Ball Zebetite Skip. Technically this strat involves `canWallIceClip` but we don't include that requirement, since the positioning of the Rinka is freely normalized, which makes the trick easier than this tech would normally imply. FIXME: It is possible to Ice Zeb Skip out, but it is much harder and would only be useful if getting here with canRiskPermanentLossOfAccess. |

To be able to break the glass and leave out the left side, Samus must be at a specific horizontal X pixel position ($63). Therefore, the Crystal Flash should have been performed at this position; For the moondance, moonfalls must be performed only left-to-right, or Samus will fall out. After 176 moonfalls, Samus will clip down into the tank. Angle down and fire 18 Missiles into Mother Brain to break the tank. If Samus is correctly positioned, she will then fall out and be free to move to the left. If Samus is at position $62 (a pixel to the left of the correct position), it is possible for a Rinka hit to knock back Samus into position $63. Requires: {

Perform a moondance while killing the Rinkas, carefully avoiding being hit by them. After 176 moonfalls, Samus will clip down into the tank. Samus will be unable to turn around and will be invulnerable to Rinka hits. Freeze a Rinka several pixels in front of Samus, to cause Samus to clip horizontally. This will work regardless of whether Samus is facing left or right. When Samus is close enough to the end, quickly turn around back and forth to wiggle out, to avoid taking too much damage from the invisible spikes in the air. Requires: {

Freeze the Pirates and use them as platforms to climb the room. Sometimes the Pirates may decide to climb the wrong way; patience may be required to wait for them to come back. If enough energy is available, it can be easier to use i-frames to jump up through a Pirate and freeze it from above, compared to jumping around it. Requires: "canBePatient"
