Yes, AJ does it in his hard any%, but not in his normal any%. And 100 tries! Must be harder then I thought, because I can do the way with the power grip in only about 15 tries.
I attempted to do the Power Grip way in one runs, I almost killed myself from frustration after 10 tries. Curse my impatience!
I think this way is easier. With the power grip, after getting on the 1st block, fall to the left, let yourself fall about half a samus height, then press up and you should grab the next block. Repeat until you get to the last block, where you hafe to do the bomb over way
It's the last part that I can't do, the bombing between the blocks is easy for me since i've always used a similar techniquie while getting early Varia.
I actually don't ever get varia, except in low% runs. The reason for this is that you don't actually need it much of the time and you automatically get it after you get the fully powered suit. I also have trouble at the last part, because 2/3 of my mistakes are at the last part.
You just need to practice getting through those rooms fast, and i think going to Kraid first helps a lot.
Of course you go Kraid first in a 100% run. I can skip the Varia suit in a hard 100% run, but I'll need to recharge energy both at screw and high jump.
I can get through those rooms losing 150 health each, and I have 500 energy at that point, but there's just too many in 100%. What can I do to prevent this? Refill at every chozo?
1. I'll still lose 5-10 seconds 2. no comment 3. I started a multi-segment just because my batteries were low, but if my batteries were high, I would have done an SS just for the sake of extra speed.

1.)5-10 seconds=NOTHING 2.)... 3.)Get new batteries. Multi-Segent>>>>>>>SS because if you screw up, YOU'RE DEAD.
1. Think about it. Lets say my goal is under 1:06 and I got 1:05:59 without killing the enemies. If I killed the enemies, then I wouldn't of succeeded in beating my goal. 2.... 3.I can just keep trying. I took months on my last SS run to get it perfect.

1. I just got 59:46, if I had lost 14 more seconds, it wouldn't have been a sub-hour. 3. Alot of people thinks SS>Multi-segment, cuz "it's much cooler", myself, I play it cuz I'm not the person to perfect a segment at a time, I'd be bored very quickly.
