Start from the Middle Right Door next to the Zeb farm. While standing on the right of the Zeb farm, freeze the Zeb while it is still moving up and facing to the right. Quickly go through the morph tunnel with a Bomb, Power Bomb, or Spring Ball, and get onto the small floating platform just above the Zeb farm. After the Zeb is visible, freeze it and jump on top of it. Use the Zeb as a platform to climb high enough to get it to be aligned with the door. Use the background to see how high the Zeb is - Get the Zeb 2-3 tiles higher than the thinner bright line in the background. Note that if the Zeb is unfrozen and off screen horizontally it will despawn, but if it's off screen vertically it will not. Chase the Zeb towards the doorway, refreezing it as needed.

It is possible to bomb boost from the door runway over the Zeb and onto the first step. Without doing this, the Zeb will likely touch Samus, as it will start moving if Samus goes down a single step. At the left end of the tunnel, roll against the lower left corner, exit G-mode, and X-Ray standup, shoot the block, partial floor clip, then jump and down grab to the ledge. Wiggle to escape. A failed jump will result in a forced crouch, which is likely a soft lock.

Roll through the item to mostly overload PLMs before falling into the pit and fully overloading them with the camera scroll blocks. Fully overloading the PLMs before touching the camera scroll blocks will prevent the camera from following Samus after exiting G-mode. While falling, carefully avoid touching the thorns on the right, then roll through the spikeway. After the camera stops scrolling, move another 2-3 tiles then exit G-Mode. Make small jumps to reset the camera then quickly kill the Beetom as it jumps at Samus, or precisely jump underneath it.

Fall into the pit while being careful to only touch one of the crumble blocks. Bounce up through the camera scroll blocks to overload PLMs with Spring Ball, Bombs, or Power Bombs. This can be done with as few as 2 Power Bombs by placing the bomb, moving slightly, then as it boosts Samus horizontally, hold backwards to avoid landing on another crumble block. Otherwise it takes 6 Power Bombs. Move horizontally to fall through the crumble blocks that haven't been touched. Carefully fall to not touch the spikes on the right, then roll through the spikeway. After the camera stops scrolling, move another 2-3 tiles then exit G-Mode. Make small jumps to reset the camera then quickly kill the Beetom as it jumps at Samus, or precisely jump underneath it.

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. Then lure it down and to the right, making it pass through the morph tunnel. Samus' vertical position must stay below that of the Reo, in order to keep the Reo in its hover state.

Fully overload PLMs with the item before climbing the room. The hardest part is getting past the Reo without Power Bombs, if it is stuck in the stairwell just above the door. 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. Avoiding the top Sidehoppers without Power Bombs can also be tricky; if starting at the top of the room, it may help to lure them to the left before going down the room. For safety, it is also possible to lure the hoppers to the left from below with several IBJs or HiJump and Spring Ball.

Using Speed Booster, run through and break the bomb wall to free the global Zeela. Break the speed blocks just before the Zeela gets to them in order for it to go down to the bottom half of the room. The speed blocks respawn very quickly, so this requires very precise timing. Normally, it takes the Zeela a minimum of 2 minutes to setup, but a super can make it fall down the shaft, saving 30 seconds. It may be easiest to knock the Zeela from the ceiling directly into the hole, saving another 30 seconds: Shoot a well-timed Super diagonally at the ground just before breaking the speed blocks.

Traverse the room while rolling on the thorns and avoiding the Samus Eaters. Roll from the first platform onto the thorns under the first set of Boyons. When just past the first Boyons, turn right to damage boost up and hit the block and fall back on the thorns. While still facing right wait for the thorns to hit again; use the boost to get onto the next set of thorns and roll across them into the third Samus Eater before using a Power Bomb. Use the Power Bomb to boost up into the thorns. Hit the thorns again to get next to the Chozo statue. Place another Power Bomb and exit G-Mode before it goes off to break the wall. Note that if Samus is teleported into the Samus Eater when exiting G-Mode, then PLMs weren't properly overloaded before entering it. PLMs can be overloaded by waiting on their petals before entering them. Taking 2 thorn hits while under the first Boyons is important for this reason.

Starting from the top of the room will require careful manipulation of the Sovas. If going through the Power Bomb blocks, place the Power Bomb on the lowest stair on the ledge above, go down and lure the Sova up and use a Super to knock it off once it is just above the right side of where the Power Bomb blocks were. If using Bombs, lure the Sova that is just below the Power Bomb blocks, then use a Super to prevent it from going into the Morph tunnel. Starting at the bottom of the room and going up for the item before coming back down can be done, even with a Power Bomb, by first luring the Sova into safety at the bottom of the room.

Wait for the Sova to pass then 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.

Dev note: Artificial morph strats can be useful, for instance, in indirect G-mode without heat protection, where Samus needs to collect the item. The canComplexGMode is only used here to describe opening the gate in direct G-mode without gate glitching. However, the indirect variant still requires canHeatedGMode or Varia - with Varia, indirect strats can instead be used to go to the top left door and return.

On entry, wait for the Geruta to swoop under the door runway, then spin jump up into the alcove on the ceiling above the end of the runway. The Geruta will often swoop around the runway and be set up to hit Samus on the next swoop. Other times it may swoop outwards instead; in this scenario, repeat the same movements for another attempt for it to swoop towards the door. Because it deals a lot of damage, it is possible to enter with ~99 Energy and use the setup whether it swoops towards the door on a first or second attempt at manipulating it.

It is possible to kill a Multiviola by the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. While luring the right Multiviola around the room, it is important to prevnt the Magdollites from spawning too many fireballs, otherwise the Multiviola won't give any drops. Either kill the middle Magdollite with a Super and stay away from the others when possible, or use Ice keep them frozen. Be careful not to touch any invisible flames that the Magdollites do spawn. It is also possible to do this with nothing; stand on the right platform while the Magdollite shoots to the right, then go to left edge of the runway to the right, pause abuse and exit G-mode while crouching and shooting upwards to kill and collect the flame drops.

It is possible to kill a Multiviola by the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. This requires luring the left Multiviola around the room multiple times. It is important to prevnt the Magdollites from spawning too many fireballs, otherwise the Multiviola won't give any drops. Either kill them with Supers or use Ice keep them frozen. Be careful not to touch any invisible flames that the Magdollites do spawn.

Dev note: It is possible to do this with nothing, but requires precise positioning and lucky drops.

Enter with G-mode direct, back up to between 1 and 6 pixels from the door transition, and activate X-ray to get very deep stuck in the door. Climb up 1 screen, and perform a turnaround buffered spin-jump away from the door to trigger the transition, bypassing any lock on the door.

To save Energy, it is possible to lure a Sova to the right door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. The left-most Sova falls into the lava and walks to the right. It is important to prevent the Dragons from shooting too many fireballs, as they will eventually prevent drops from appearing. Keeping the Sova on camera and moving a reasonable amount of the time will prevent the drops from being overloaded.

Lure a Sova to the left door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. It is important to prevent the Dragons from shooting too many fireballs, as they will eventually prevent drops from appearing. Either use a Super to bring the left-most Sova that circles a platform, by knocking it off while it is on the right side of the platform, or lure the left-most Sova that falls into the lava to the right and back to the left. Without a Super, Samus must quickly kill or freeze the Dragons. Only the right 3 Dragons must be killed in order to prevent the drops from being overloaded, but killing more makes it more lenient.

It is possible to kill a Multiviola by the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. It is important avoid touching the invisible fireballs the Alcoons place, and to prevent them from shooting too many fireballs, as they will eventually prevent drops from appearing. The Alcoons are global, so it is best to kill those at the top of the room and either kill or avoid those lower, depending on if Samus has a way to kill them quickly.

It is possible to kill a Multiviola by the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit. It is important avoid touching the invisible fireballs the Alcoons place, and to prevent them from shooting too many fireballs, as they will eventually prevent drops from appearing. One easy way to do this without any beam upgrades or ammo is to kill them before they jump. This can be done from below by jumping and shooting horizontally near the floor surface. Stay near the far wall when shooting to prevent getting too close and triggering their jump.

Enter the morph tunnel then exit G-mode. Shooting the shot block off screen can be done by jumping and shooting up or with Grapple or a Power Bomb. Getting positioned under the shot block can be done by walking into the camera scroll block and then walking against the right wall, jump to the left and walk a little more (about one more tile). This will also give some visibility of Samus. Without heat damage, it is recommended to jump up past the shot block and wait for it to respawn; with the block intact, Samus can't accidentally touch the lava.

On room entry, perform a low spin jump onto the first ledge to avoid getting the Geruta to swoop to the right. Jump against the left wall, then move right and the Geruta should come down quickly. Move back and forth until it comes down further. This can be tricky if needing to avoid contact damage. Quickly freezing the Geruta as it starts to come down can be used to avoid taking a hit. Killing the Dragon on room entry can also be helpful.

Exit G-mode before the crumble bridge, this is when the floor starts sloping up slightly. Without a way to kill the pirates, touch the camera scroll block briefly before the bridge, then run over the bridge and through the pirates before fixing the camera, to not have to deal with the pirates. Otherwise, it may be worth killing the pirates for some Energy to be able to tank a hit later. Use a Bomb, Power Bomb, or Spring Ball to get over the Speed blocks. Then carefully avoid or kill the remaining enemies.

Climb down using the solid crumble blocks. It is possible to use a Super to knock a Sova off and kill it by the door and pause abuse to grab its Energy drop on G-mode exit with a very precise positioning jump or large Energy drop. With a second Super it is recommended to bring down the other clockwise Sova as well (at the top of the room), and stack their drops. It is also possible to do it without a Super if the Sova drops a large Energy drop. There is a way to do this with two Sova, and if either drops a large Energy, Samus can survive: kill both of the bottom two Sova at the bottom right corner of their platforms, stand on the middle of the platform with the second lowest Sova, and hold right when exiting G-mode.

Wait for the acid to lower then quickly roll part way forward to trigger the Metarees and return. Then go again without any difficulty. Killing any of the Gamets will prevent them from respawning. With Bombs, horizontally boost then IBJ above the acid while waiting for it. It is possible with Spring Ball alone, but it is easy to take damage; perform small jumps but hold jump before landing to prevent a small bounce in which Samus can't jump. On the return route, jump over the Gamets to let them pass instead of racing to get them off screen.

Lure the Gamets to the top left door with Ice and Space Jump. First lure the Gamets vertically using the Kamer platform and Ice, which is much easier with HiJump disabled. Then freeze them again after they separate and are high enough to align with the door. Space Jump to the left of them and refreeze them as they move to the left, then quickly climb back up to the top left before they thaw.

Dev note: An indirect option could be added to just get to the item without heat damage, but that would require very unusual room layouts and isn't worth the effort.

Despawn the gate in indirect G-mode then Power Bomb the Rippers and cross the room. It is possible to kill a Ripper near the right door and pause abuse to collect its drop on G-mode exit. Timing the Power Bomb to kill some but not all of the lower three Rippers is necessary if farming on the right side of the room.

Despawn the gate in indirect G-mode then cross the room while killing, freezing, dodging, or tanking the Rippers. Dodging the Rippers without Morph, requires crouching under the first two then jumping and aiming down over the next two; it also requires jumping over all three lower Rippers when most of the way across the room.

Despawn the gate in indirect G-mode then cross the room by either rolling under the Rippers then unmorphing and dodging them while while crossing the room, or place a Power Bomb to kill all or most of them and cross the room. It is possible to kill a Ripper near the left door and pause abuse to collect its drop on G-mode exit.

Despawn the gate in indirect G-mode then cross the room while killing, freezing, or tanking the Rippers.

Despawn the gate in indirect G-mode then cross the room while dodging the Rippers. It is possible to cross the room damageless without any items. Crouch under the first Rippers then jump with a precise timing to go over the next without hitting the highest ones. With two small forward spin jumps, jump over the three Rippers that come from behind. Move to the first platform and jump over them again. Cross the rest of the room while weaving through the Rippers to get to the left side. It is possible to kill a Ripper near the left door and pause abuse to collect its drop on G-mode exit.

Start the fight with 31 Missiles or fewer in order to prevent GT from using its laser attack, which will enable Samus to stand next to it. With more than 31 Missiles, Samus will have a 2 pixel window in which she must quickly get into to prevent touching GT or his lasers.

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, in direct G-mode, jump immediately on entry while Samus still has i-frames to get to the left of the first Zebbo and kill it, and in indirect G-mode, move to the left then run under the Holtzes. Carefully cross the room while killing the Holtz without luring them, or dodge them.

If the Power Bomb is laid near the top of the room, then Ridley will be forced into the bottom of the room, making it easy to damage Ridley at the highest possible rate; if the Power Bomb is laid lower, Ridley will be forced to the top of room, and Samus will have to jump repeatedly to bring it on camera. in which case Ridley can still be damaged but more slowly and with some caution needed to avoid invisible fireballs. After reducing Ridley's health to zero, take damage from Ridley or an invisible fireball to trigger auto-reserves and exit G-mode. Then get grabbed by Ridley to finish the fight.

Enter the room in G-mode and quickly kill Ridley with 30 Supers. G-mode protects against heat damage but also causes Ridley's fireballs to be invisible and not move. As long as Ridley is swooping, not many fireballs will be placed, so delaying Ridley from pogoing can be helpful. Once Ridley begins pogoing, it generally becomes unsafe for Samus to jump high because of the risk of touching a fireball. By the end of the fight, projectiles will probably be overloaded, causing Ridley's drops not to spawn; they can be collected by exiting G-mode just before drops spawn, and pause abusing if necessary.

It is much more common for Ridley to hit Samus when Ridley is facing left. One way to get Ridley to turn around is when it pogos on the right side of the room, stationary spin jump and break spin. The fireballs can be tricky to deal with in the door frame, but can be done by dropping down and quickly wall jumping back up or by kagoing them.

Dev note: FIXME: artificial morph with direct G-mode is another option for laying a Power Bomb at the top of the room, by landing on the door ledge on entry (the Morph item would still be needed since the Crystal Flash forces Samus out of being morphed).

Enter the room in G-mode and quickly kill Ridley with 30 Supers. G-mode protects against heat damage but also causes Ridley's fireballs to be invisible and not move. As long as Ridley is swooping, not many fireballs will be placed, so delaying Ridley from pogoing can be helpful. Once Ridley begins pogoing, it generally becomes unsafe for Samus to jump high because of the risk of touching a fireball. By the end of the fight, projectiles will probably be overloaded, causing Ridley's drops not to spawn; they can be collected by exiting G-mode just before drops spawn, and pause abusing if necessary.

It is possible to kill the pirate at the top of the room and use a pause abuse on G-mode exit to collect its drops. This requires getting somewhat lucky, as there is approximately a 70% chance that the pirate will give a large energy drop (small is not enough). To do this, climb the room very quickly, before shots are overloaded - HiJump or wall jumps help, but are not required. It is also possible to wait for the shots to be overloaded and then exit G-mode, pause abuse, and kill the pirate before the pause triggers, but this is generally harder.

On room entry, place a Power Bomb to kill the Atomic and land on the Workrobot. Wait for the Workrobot to move across the room until it meets with a second robot. Depending on where the robots place their invisible, stationary lasers, either roll off and quickly roll under the Atomic, stay on for a second to try to lure the Atomic left a bit, or use a Power Bomb to kill it. Be sure to watch and listen for where the robots are placing their lasers; they occupy a 24x24 pixel space and are typically placed with only 1-2 tiles of space between them. Fall off the workrobots without any horizontal movement to decrease the chance of touching a laser. Note that the majority of the lasers that the workrobots place only deal 4 damage and can be tanked with a suit's damage reduction or an immobile entrance. Avoid placing a Power Bombs too close to the right wall or it will hit the bomb block and it will no longer be passable. Quickly use the camera scroll blocks just left of the bomb blocks, in order to overload PLMs and go through them before the Atomic hits Samus.

Samus needs to touch the item before PLMs are overloaded. This can be difficult because Power Bombs interact with the items, and there is a camera scroll block in the morph tunnel. If the Speed-locked item has already been collected on the other side of the room, this will be easier. Otherwise, Samus will need to touch the item before the Power Bomb finishes exploding. In this case, it is recommended to hold left on room entry, place a Power Bomb immediately as Samus hits the left wall, then hold left again until she lands on the pedestal.

Dev note: This strat is here instead of part of 11->6, because if the item is an E-Tank, Samus can use it to escape.

After grabbing the item, quickly shoot the crab with a diagonal Wave shot to kill it and escape.

Dev note: This strat is here instead of part of 11->6, because if the item is Wave, Samus can use it to escape.

Samus can Crystal Flash to have enough Energy to take a crab hit or to get some Reserve Energy, but then she will not be able to use X-Ray to exit G-Mode, and will require a Reserve Trigger. The Crystal Flash needs to be done before unmorphing, while being careful not to kill the global crab. Samus then needs to jump into the speed-locked item and hit the crab to trigger Reserves and exit G-Mode. This can be done with HiJump, Gravity, Spring Ball, or Ice. Turn around while inside the item to collect it. Wait for the global crab to get into position. Note that if the crab is arriving too early, it may be possible to slow the crab with Ice or lure the crab from above instead. Alternatively, she may have to wait for the global crab to circle the room.

Dev note: Samus needs to use Bombs or Power Bombs to overload PLMs, so Morph or artificial Morph is already required. FIXME: If Samus has a lot of tanks, it could take too much time to damage down. Ice can be used to take multiple hits from a crab before it leaves.

Freeze a crab on the edge of the speed blocks, such that Samus can jump inside and stand on the crab. If using Bombs, it is important to freeze the crab with all other beams turned off, so that the crab has 30 remaining Energy or less. Place a Bomb or Power Bomb, then quickly get into the crouch position and use X-Ray to exit G-Mode before it goes off. It is important to be crouched, not standing, and have Gravity off, or the bomb will boost Samus and she will be stuck in the speed blocks. Note that if the crab is arriving too early, it may be possible to slow the crab with Ice or lure the crab from above instead. Alternatively, she may have to wait for the global crab to circle the room.

It is possible to kago the bomb boost in order to do this strat with Gravity still equipped.

Freeze a crab on the edge of the speed blocks, such that Samus can jump inside and stand on the crab. Exit G-Mode and rotate to obtain the item. Samus will now be stuck on the crab, and if it thaws and hits her, she will be pushed up and stuck in the speed blocks.

Bounce from the right peak into the morph tunnel. Samus can't bounce twice in a single fall, so come to a stop on the top platform or avoid it completely. A Power Bomb can be placed on the descent to kill the Crab, as long as Samus lands near the top of the peak, to give the bomb enough time before she gets there. If the morph tunnel is expanded, it is also possible to slow Samus' descent enough to avoid the crab by hitting the Powamp, falling near the top of the peak, then bouncing into the edge of the tunnel. This will save a small amount of Energy.

Use two snails to moonfall down through the pipe to the section below. The snails should be easy to align, with one on the floor and another on a ceiling 4 tiles higher. Shoot the lower snail after Samus has enough fall speed in order to avoid taking a snail hit. There is a small set of frames between these two, in which Samus will fall out of bounds.

The Snails will dig through the sand without showing any visual difference. Each block they pass through gets closer to overloading PLMs. In order to Power Bomb the left wall before PLMs are overloaded, it is necessary to only allow one snail to dig, either by bombing one or by facing one to prevent movement until it is off screen. If using mobile G-mode, it is easiest to get past the bottom one and prevent it from digging. If using immobile G-mode, it is easiest to have whichever one hits Samus go off screen. It is important to place the Power Bomb while as far right as possible to ensure that PLMs have not been overloaded before breaking the wall, or, wait until the snail has fully overloaded PLMs and dug a small place where Samus can unmorph against the wall to place the Power Bomb before quickly unmorphing and exiting G-mode. The green stone changes one tile earlier than the wall, and can be used as a visual cue to place the Power Bomb. Note that the Snails will not dig while off screen or while Samus is facing them, even while she is morphed.

Note that it is necessary to exit G-Mode before exiting the room in order for the Metroids to remain killed. To do this, trigger Reserves in the acid or on a Rinka. The Rinkas will likely all be dead, so jump into the acid then start jumping out just before the Reserves trigger to minimize damage taken.

Dev note: The acid doesn't do much damage if Samus is jumping out as Reserves trigger. The Metroid drops should more than make up for the acid damage taken.

On entry, Crystal Flash, then lure the Metroids to the light orb. Note that it is necessary to exit G-Mode before exiting the room in order for the Metroids to remain killed. To do this, trigger Reserves on a Rinka below, or first damage down with some of the Metroids before killing them. To minimize damage taken, lure a Rinka away from its spawner before touching it to prevent multiple hits during the auto Reserve trigger.

Lure a Rinka to the top door without letting it go off screen. The bottom right Rinka can be lured at the correct angle by standing on the central platform then jumping slightly before it moves.

Enter with G-mode direct, back up to between 1 and 6 pixels from the door transition, and activate X-ray to get very deep stuck in the door. Climb up 1 screen, moving quickly to avoid Rinka hits, and perform a turnaround buffered spin-jump away from the door to trigger the transition, bypassing any lock on the door.

Enter with G-mode direct, and go to the top of the room to perform a Crystal Flash to refill on energy without destroying all the bottom Rinkas. Use the Rinkas to damage down. For the final hit that will trigger auto-reserves, stand in the open doorway between 1 and 6 pixels from the transition. The auto reserve trigger will cancel G-mode and close the door on top of Samus. Climb up 2 screens, moving quickly to minimize Rinka damage. Perform a turnaround buffered spin-jump away from the door to trigger the transition, bypassing any lock on the door.

Dev note: The 'immobile' requirement in the entranceCondition is not necessary but is included for clarity. Without coming in immobile, it would not be possible to have enough energy to survive the Rinka hit. The enemyDamage in this strat is for a second Rinka hit while climbing.

Quickly freeze a pirate and kill the other without letting them jump back and forth. Each jump they will place a large, stationary, invisible laser, which makes the room much trickier to traverse, although they can be dodged with a precise wall jump from the outer walls. Wait for the pirate to randomly climb to the top of the room, then crouch on one of the two plaforms, second from the top. Quickly freeze the pirate when it is close to the middle of the room and crouch jump from on top of it through the door. Note that Samus can freely pass the pirates while they are frozen, to prevent them from jumping and placing more invisible lasers.

Dev note: This is only for indirect G-Mode, because it is trivial while in direct, and would use a different strat.
