Wait 3 minutes for a global Geemer to waddle over, or shoot a Super 20 to 30 seconds after entering the room to knock it off the ceiling and save a lot of time. Damage down until Samus is one Geemer hit away from running out of energy, and set reserves to manual. Crouch jump at a very precise time and mid-air morph to contact the Geemer at the peak of the jump, pressing pause to be in the fade-out while getting hit and reaching 0 energy. Set reserves to auto, unpause, and hold left. While reserves are auto-refilling, Samus' i-frames will run out, allowing Samus to be hit by the Geemer again and be boosted high enough to reach the ledge. The screen will be black, which can be fixed by pausing and unpausing again.

Enter with direct G-Mode artificial morph, and perform a Crystal Flash to refill reserve energy. Do this all the way to the left, to prevent the Geemer from being destroyed by the lingering light orb. Wait for a global Geemer to make the long trip along the map, or shoot a Super 20 to 30 seconds after entering the room to knock it off the ceiling and save a lot of time. Either way, after the Geemer comes down into Alcatraz, shoot a Super to knock it off the ledge to make it bypass the light orb. Damage down until one Geemer hit away from running out of energy. If Samus has at least one Energy Tank, it will take longer to damage down, in which case an additional Super can be used to knock the Geemer onto the floating platform, to allow unlimited time for damaging down. A final Super can be used to knock the Geemer off the floating platform. Set reserves to manual, stand next to the bomb blocks, and wait for the Geemer to approach. Just before taking a hit, press pause. During the fade-out, hold forward to land quickly after knockback. At a precise moment just before the pause hits, jump and aim down; the aim-down can be buffered before jumping, e.g. by rolling from forward to down through a diagonal input. Set reserves to auto, then unpause while continuing to hold jump. If successful, the forced stand-up will occur close to the ceiling and while Samus still has upward momentum, allowing Samus to clip through.

Wait for a global Geemer to make the long trip along the map, or shoot a Super 20 to 30 seconds after entering the room to knock it off the ceiling and save a lot of time. Freeze it just after it starts climbing the bomb blocks. Spin-jump above it, which will put Samus into a forced crouch where X-Ray cannot be used.

Wait for a global Geemer to make the long trip along the map, or shoot a Super 20 to 30 seconds after entering the room to knock it off the ceiling and save a lot of time. Hold right against the bomb blocks, take damage from the Geemer, jump, aim-down, and shoot the Geemer shortly before landing. Samus should end up standing on the ground with the Geemer frozen on the wall with a 4-8 pixel gap between it and the ground (overlapping Samus' hitbox). Facing the bomb blocks and pressed against them, jump while holding down (but not crouched) and then hold forward (or forward and down) 5 frames later to break the aim-down pose. If successful, Samus will clip up through the ceiling. This can be attempted several times before the Geemer thaws.

Shoot out only the lower 2 shot blocks on the side Samus will be climbing. Grab a Beetom and use Morph to pixel align the Beetom with the edge of the wall. While facing right. Xray stand up for height and shoot to freeze. Angle down shot to be safe. Continue refreezing during the next steps. Grab the other Beetom and stand close, but not too close, to the first. Do a small jump, but not too low, and do an angle down shot the frame before Samus lands. This second beetom needs to be exactly 1 pixel below the first. Refreeze the first before testing the positioning. Jump onto your beetom, walk into the wall, and start xray Climbing. Climb up 2.5 screens and then fire upwards to clear shot blocks. Continue climbing and finish by walking away from the crumble blocks.

This uses the runway at the top-right of the room, requiring an extremely precise jump in order to thread the needle between the platforms and reach the left door. If obtaining blue speed, a multi-stutter should be used with a 2-tap shortcharge, with an early second tap and a last-frame jump, in order to gain enough momentum for the jump; bonk the ceiling, and wait to aim down until passing between the platforms.

Break the bomb block at the bottom right of the main shaft. Bring a Zeela down to the bottom of the room. Morph inside the tunnel, take a Zeela hit, then jump, aim down, and shoot to freeze the Zeela as it starts to move up and while Samus is close to landing. Jump and aim down to get on top of the Zeela. If the Zeela is precisely positioned exactly 12 pixels above the ground, you can press up to make Samus stand; Otherwise, if you have X-ray, then the Zeela should be frozen lower, and you can morph and unmorph and use X-ray to force Samus to stand up; in this case there is a 6-pixel window over which it works, with the Zeela being between 4 and 9 pixels above the ground. In either case, after standing up on top of the Zeela, jump and aim down to break the crumble block. Then, before the crumble respawns, morph and use Spring Ball (if available) to jump back up and into the tunnel; without Spring Ball, a quick mid-air morph also works but is more difficult.

Freeze the Beetom and use it as a platform to climb the room without wall jumps. This can be done with well-timed Flatley jumps on top of the frozen Beetom, by turning around and spin jumping just as it unfreezes. This can be made easier (at the cost of some additional Beetom hits) with a pause-buffer method: Press pause, and begin a turn-around just before the pause hits; unequip Ice to immediately unfreeze the Beetom; unpause and press jump quickly after control resumes, but without buffering the input. For the top two jumps, it is possible to reduce the risk of damage by freezing the Beetom against the wall: in case of a failure due to an early (e.g. buffered) jump, the Beetom may stay stuck wiggling in the wall, and then it can be refrozen without needing to take damage to reposition it.

If the Power Bomb blocks are broken and the room cannot be reset, the runway can be extended by waiting for the slow global Sova.

Wait 3 minutes for the Sova to get into position, or 100 seconds with Morph by going ahead of them to break the shot blocks as they get there.

Killing Golden Torizo only with missiles using enemy state manipulation to get missiles to connect. This can be done by rolling under GT, triggering the sit attack, and then shooting missiles during the stand up animation. By pushing GT to the door and rolling into the door during a jump back, the sit can reliably be manipulated. But this setup is subpixel dependant and harder to setup again if GT moves unexpectidly. Use of the safe spot is expected. Keep missiles below 31 to control the fight. This fight takes multiple minutes. (A cheeky Missile can hit GT the moment it becomes active)

Climb up about half a screen. If Phantoon is dead, the last part of the climb should be done carefully to avoid triggering collision with the spikes: Do not press forward or turn-around except while X-Ray is active. For each X-ray stand-up, release the turn-around input quickly to make sure that it is not still held after X-Ray deactivates. Once Samus is high enough, unequip X-Ray, jump up (from either standing or crouch) to clip past the spikes, and land, taking a single spike hit. Then use the i-frames from the spike hit to run and jump to the left to make it to the door. Samus is high enough after the top of her arm cannon first becomes visible at the bottom of the screen; or up to 3 additional climbs can be performed after that point. In case of an accidental spike collision, it is possible to recover: Unless Samus climbed higher than needed, she will still be stuck in the wall, will take a single spike hit, and be able to continue climbing. With Grapple it is possible to swing on the Grapple blocks, avoiding all spike damage. Spike damage can also be avoided with Space Jump, by doing a stationary turn-around spin jump, which is very precise.

Use the slow global crab and Skulteras to get up. The last part, just below the item is the hardest. Get onto the global crab on the right wall. Either freeze the Skultera close to the wall and wall jump between them. or, a harder option without wall jumps is to refreeze the crab again, higher on the wall, while being careful not to clip through it. Freeze the Skultera at the left, near its minimum and jump to it, then the solid ground. Note that the fish will be pushed down slightly over time because of the sloped tiles, but it will be at its minimum by the time the global crab has arrived.

Use the slow global crab and Skulteras to get up. The last part, just below the item is the hardest. Wait for the global crab to be on vertical portion the ledge jutting out on the right or left - any other locations and it will fall on a platform and get stuck. Shoot a super and freeze it mid air. Using the frozen crab on the platform, the mid air crab, and the fish, jump up to the solid ground. Freeze the Skultera at the left, near its minimum and jump to it, then the solid ground.

After the global crab passes and starts climbing up, use a super and freeze it mid air to get to the left platform. Jump and a quick crab will start moving down the right wall.

Climbing the right side of Mt. Everest with only two supers and ice. (As used in 14% Icebooster) Requires luring 2 crabs. Use a super to knock off and freeze a crab midair. Be sure to lure a crab to the next section to crab climb further. If Samus has 2 supers, it is easier to bring 3 crabs; the third is from the morph tunnel to the left. Lure 2 crabs to the next section for a slightly easier crab climb. Note: The hardest part of this climb is the pixel precision when jumping around a ledge. Too many pixels: left is a fall, right you clip through the crab, low you miss the jump and fall, high is a bonk or crab clip.

IBJ up the climb. This is a lot easier with PBs or Spring Ball to help kill the enemies. With PBs, use one on entry to deal with the Puyos, then IBJ up the right side and use another to kill the middle Choot. Otherwise, Kill the Puyos then the bottom Choot with Bombs, falling off when necessary, then climb the left side of the room.

Perform a 1-tap to gain blue speed with a significant amount of momentum. Run through the door, and jump near the end of the platform, crossing the room. If Samus gains enough height from the jump, it is possible unmorph mid-air to discard horizontal speed at the right side of the room, then pause to remorph (`canPauseRemorphTemporaryBlue`). Otherwise, a precisely timed unmorph is needed to avoid bonking the door and losing the blue state; at certain speeds, it may be necessary to briefly release jump in order to control the height for the unmorph.
