Man I love how the game rewards the player for having good parry timing on the bosses which gives them these cool little sequences with the bosses that you could otherwise miss if you never attempt to parry them. That is such a nice touch. And it feels like you are more engaged in the fight by still being able to shoot in real time rather than a simple QTE of just pressing the right button during it.

Canonically this probably is what she looks like.

I'll definitely be using some of the simpler strats on subsequent playthroughs. I'm nowhere near good enough to do anything like a no-hit run, but some of these strats absolutely make some of the spots I struggled in a lot more manageable. I did actually find out Shinesparking bosses, but I had yet to see it in action (or do it myself, natch) so I now have a better idea on where and how to do it (those Chozo robots always tripped me up in particular), and sliding under Raven Beak in phase two seems like such a no-brainer, but in retrospect it's obvious. And finally, while I knew the Gold Chozo's shield wasn't breakable like the others, I did not know you could grapple it. Very handy to know; now I'll see if I can put it into practice lol

Truly incredible. Makes me feel like i didn't accomplish much by beating the last boss with all my gear! Great shinesparks on those robot chozos, too. Wish i would have thought of that. There are a couple ways you could go even faster, though: For Kraid, when he fires the three spikes one after the other (not all at once during the phase transition) you can jump onto the spikes and climb up to the top, skipping part of the lower phase. I don't see ANYONE doing this but that's what i did when i fought him. (You can jump on those things in Super Metroid, too, which is why i tried it!) Also you can alternate between beam and missile attacks by mashing attack and then intermittently tapping R1 to get a missile. While the missile is cooling down, you can continue firing normal shots. This will increase your damage rate in some sections. Maybe you know about this and had a different strategy in mind, but that's what i've seen speedrunners do.
