canBeVeryLucky (Insane+)
Executing a strat that has a high chance to fail due to random elements such as enemy drops. This is used where failure is unforgiving and may result in a death or slow process to reattempt.

Kill all three Boyons for energy, or Crystal Flash. If you need to freeze Boyons for extra runway, disable Ice Beam to force them to unfreeze so you can interrupt spark. If you end up killing all four Boyons, you can also dip in the acid for the spark interrupt. Entrance condition: {

Due to R-Mode Entry, getting hit by the Sidehopper can only be avoided by a quick Screw Attack after releasing the X-Ray Scope. You can attempt to farm the two ground Sidehoppers for Reserve Energy. Otherwise, you must use a Crystal Flash. Leave the ceiling Sidehopper alive to clear the runway for a shortcharge. Initiate the shinespark in midair so that Samus is in the path to be hit.

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.

The pirate will randomly walk up and down and wall, but if it sees Samus and jumps across, it will start climbing up the left wall or down the right wall. With a lot of luck, the pirate will sometimes climb down and hit Samus before it goes off camera. Be sure to avoid any stationary, invisible lasers that they might place. Entrance condition: {
