Really great your speedrun, with all the glitches, certain of the 1. Congratulations on all this I loved it. It must have taken years. Strongly that you face a speedrun on the 3. Congratulations once again 👌👍😉
Love this TAS. Around the time youre in Dark Torvus getting PBs and dark visor it looks like your jumps are super floaty or in low gravity or something. Whats going on there?
When you start the chykka fight in the dark water, your jump gets floaty. It doesn't work if you have Light suit, which is why I avoid getting it early.
Although you can skip some of the items I collect in this run, like SJ, Bombs or Dark or Light Beam, you have to get extra items, for example low% no SJ has to collect Violet, Amber, Spider Ball and Seekers to compensate not having Space Jump as you can see in this run I did 2 years ago: ua-cam.com/video/fm7TLn95274/v-deo.html
This comment made me curious, so I just routed low% without bombs and unless I missed something, you might be able to fully substitute Bombs with Darkburst, which would still be a 9% completion but way harder and more annoying
at 16:06 I'm entering a Cannon in the room Sandcanyon while the game thinks I'm in Agon Temple. Unloading Sandcanyon while being shot out of the Cannon allows me to keep the 'Cannon Ball' state, which has three distinct properties: - Total invulnerability while in Morph Ball - An aura around the Morph Ball that deals 500,000 damage per frame, which allows me to Insta-Kill some enemies, most noticeably the second phase of Chykka. This aura is also capable of activating certain doors that were previously locked (though it cannot unlock currently locked doors) without needing to use a weapon against them - Allows Samus to boost, even if she doesn't already have Boost Ball

dude, I noticed that too and I have no idea why it recorded my first segment that way. Thank god there were desyncs or else that would be a run with 100% Helmet opacity

I love your TASes. I don't comment often, but I want to thank you since they bring me legitimate joy :)
Thank you for keeping my favorite Prime alive. Here's to a remaster for it and not only a port. 👌
that route towards light beam after cannon ball is sick though, why did I never think of that

@@MaskedTAS Sick. Thanks!
Could you theoretically get a lower % since the game can be beaten without bombs or SJ?

@@MaskedTAS makes sense, thanks!
I am amazed! I have a question...How did you get the boost upgrade?? It seems to just appear suddenly

@@MaskedTAS ohhh ok thanks for the reply bro!
How are you not taking damage in morph ball mode in dark aether?

@@MaskedTAS interesting
lol Helmet is on at the start but it goes away later?

the first desync of the run was during the instant morph in collapsed tunnel btw so that's where I did the cut.
46:41 what??
good job
Me the whole time watching him almost die with like 5hp 👀🫣
You get morph ball bomb before light beam
You are correct. I fixed the description :)
First
You gonna Speedrun the new remake Metroid, or do a Speedrun of all three at once?
