Gain a shinecharge by running right-to-left, either using the short runway (with unbroken Super block) or an extended runway by taking a spike hit. Then spin jump, hit the ceiling, aim down, break the Super block, and turn around to quick drop through the crumble block. During the item message box, buffer the inputs to turn around to the right and jump. Once under the crumble block (the left part of it), press up while still holding jump, to immediately activate the spark and make it up in time.

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 and wait on the safe spot for a second to overload PLMs. Move right to touch the thorns and use that to damage boost leftwards onto the next thorns and roll into the third Samus Eater. Place a Power Bomb and then quickly unmorph and jump onto the block above and exit G-Mode before the Power Bomb explodes 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. Also note that there are much easier strats with more Energy or more Power Bombs.

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.

If you wait long enough, a Waver will arrive. After it turns around to go back to the right, damage boost off of it, then follow it. Continue to hit it to get i-frames to avoid taking damage from any spikes. The amount of Waver hits can be reduced by running ahead on the spikes and taking damage from a second Waver instead of following the first Waver.

Jump to the door leading to X-Ray either by jumping from spikes or with a very precise jump. Cross the room by Jumping atop the spikes. Taking enemy damage can be used to reduce some spike damage. The final jump can either be made by jumping from the bottommost spike stair or from the safe stair. Setup run speed atop the spike stair by holding forward to be pushed backward. The safe stair jump is much harder, but can be made without every pixel of runway.

Use the spikes, which are not in the water, to jump from platform to platform as a way to cross the Colosseum. Requires knowing the position of every spike in the room, and hitting the spikes while morphed can help. The first jump is particularly tough. A SpringBallJump from the sand with HiJump, or Grapple can be used to get past it.

Land on each set of spikes as a way to jump to the next safe platform. The first jump can be done with a very precise damage boost to bounce forward off the spike, or using morph.

Use the spikes, which are not in the water, to jump from platform to platform as a way to cross the Colosseum. Requires knowing the position of every spike in the room, and hitting the spikes while morphed can help. The first jump is particularly tough. A springball rolling jump can be used to get past it.

Entrance condition:

Stay out of the water, and by extension the sand, of Colosseum by using the spikes as platforms. Morphing before landing on the spikes helps to be able to control the knockback. The final spike jump (which would be the most difficult) is avoided by doing a crouch jump into spring ball jump into IBJ to reach the left door. Perform the spring ball jump near max height. Place the first bomb between about 4 and 6 frames after the spring ball jump; ideally it should be just above the water line. Press pause between about 5 and 10 frames after placing the bomb, to disable Spring Ball (a 'spring fling', to reset fall speed). Place the second bomb soon after regaining control, while the game is fading back in. A spike hit in the center of the room can avoided by doing another spring ball jump into IBJ (also with a spring fling).
