To get a crab at the top of the room, use a Super to knock off the central crab and use Ice to climb it to the top of the room. Shoot a Super as the crab crawls near the top door, then freeze it mid-air and use it to clip up past the door shell. Samus must shoot the Super while the crab is on a block next to the door, not on the door itself.

Use the lower global crab to high pixel ice clip through the shot block. Freeze the crab pixel perfectly, then get onto it with a tight down grab.

Dev note: This is a separate strat from the double high-pixel variant, as the first high-pixel clip is fairly lenient with free retries, unlike the top one.

To get a crab at the top of the room, use a Super to knock off the central crab, because the shot blocks cannot be broken to bring a lower crab. Shoot a Super as the crab crawls near the top door, then freeze it mid-air and use it to clip up past the door shell. Samus must shoot the Super while the crab is on a block next to the door, not on the door itself.

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

To get a crab at the top of the room, either use a Super to knock off the central crab, or bring the bottom global crab by breaking the shot block in the middle of the room and using Ice to climb it to the top of the room. Shoot a Super as the crab crawls near the top door, then freeze it mid-air and use it to clip up past the door shell. Without Morph and X-Ray, Samus must shoot the Super while the crab is on a block next to the door, not on the door itself. With Morph and X-Ray, knock the crab off while on the ceiling one tile lower than the doorshell for a one-frame freeze window. This has a two-frame window with Gravity or HiJump.
