when he went down to save the animals I stood up and started clapping. well played sir

Wow ! Legendary ! Breaking the WR saving the animals...You're crazy, dude...

not only were the creatures of Zebes *not* looking to start shit, they were actually all sleeping when Samus showed up and started stealing their stuff.

33:00 OK… So your speed clone kan kill monsters :O Im very impressed by surviving into hot atmosphere without the varia suit… What a tension!!!

This should number 1, on the list of ESPN's best showboaters.

This was more than impressive! The heat section gtb so stressful. The time window is so tight and a single trick-fail at some points would have ended the run. That's what made it even more astonishing.

Incredible. Just incredible. He makes these moves look flawless, but they are so damn incredibly hard to do.

50:44 *Listen carefully when Samus picks up the extra health, the sound of the health is timed exactly with the music!! LOL*

I love how the Grapple Beam is actually useful in farming and pickups, as well as opening doors quickly.

Knocked 26 seconds off your old record even though you stopped to save your friends. Niiice.

And I once thought I was a "super player' for beating Super Mario World's star world...

I've seen a million SM runs over the past 10 years, and this one is the most impressive I've ever seen.

1:03:37? What a leet run!

I'm increasingly convinced Zoast is an android with TAS programming

This is an awesome run to behold! Good work! I've never watched a reverse boss order run before and the strats used for the Norfair run without a varia suit is totally god-like.

Congrats on another WR zoast! And on the subs and bits/donations. All well deserved ❤️

This game was so far ahead of its time.

It seems you found your inner Hotarubi for this run. Great showmanship, a pleasure to watch. I don't think this time with animals saved will ever be topped, unless you decide to do it yourself. :) INSANE SKILLZ!!!

Zoast you're the best! Love to see these WR's :)

I've just finished super metroid for the first time and came to see this video after avoiding it for months (didn't want spoilers). This is the most mindblowing speedrun I've ever seen.

Just curious, was there some kind of promise in the chat session where he must save the animals, or this was by choice? Great run!

"Varia suit is for scrubs." *amused*

Watched this live early this morning, you're an absolute madman

awesome stuff! ever closer to the ULTIMATE PRIZE!! Keep it up, Z!

Man I thought I knew every nook and cranny of this game. And you just showed me I don't know what I'm doing. Outstanding job.

Zoast, Much love and respect from me here in Bristol, UK the Strat to kill Draygon is one my mum had though was the proper way to kill him till I told her that all this time me and her both thought killing him with the grapple was actually the non intended way her face changed lol. Also holy shit this run was amazing actually it was insane you truly are a Master of Super Metroid I haven't the foggiest of how you managed to do all those amazing strats and kill the bosses in reverse order like going to Norfair with no Varia or Gravity suit is insane but by God there was a ton of clench moments but one person in your stream chat made my blood boil when they said that Metroid is a Chinese pirate copy of halo wars halo was not really thought of or even a thing when Metroid began so it made be a bit furious but despite the troll I really enjoyed this run

6am more than half asleep. dope run!!! Metroid skills to the max

Zoast watching you do those sick moves was amazing to behold! the damage boost screen transistion as well as many high speed mockball jumps as well. Shame Phantoon and Botwoon were being right douches that run but hey the numbers were good and shows the route itself was sound overall. And I about pissed myself when you saved the animal lol. Good on ya bro!

Exceptional zoasty the best super metroid player nor does it seem human ... I think the creators did not imagine so many innovations ... After seeing your videos until animei to buy a super metroid but I lack skills hahaha ... Keep hitting records if it is that Is possible ... A fan from Brazil ... Congratulations !!!

Zoasty you beautiful Metroid god.

swag strats saving the animals and still smashing WR.

Speedruns of this game, especially reverse boss order, are just simply mesmerizing when you've been playing it for 24 years.

Where is the part where he "saves the animals?" Found it, its near the end.

What in the WORLD just happened at 41:09? How is that possible? Is he clipped into the wall or something?

What a madman. Saving the animals. Gg brother. Well played

Favourite run! That under water part was disgusting.. Funny how 20+ years later and I still am learning new shit you can do in this game...

hahahah Zoast you are a mad man. you did not have to save animals, but out of the goodness of your heart (and the dope split) you did so anyway.

lord that chat is cancerous

Hey Zoasty great Run! I have 2 questions, how do you become invisible when you're on the elevator and do you play on the original snes or classic?

15:23 cara você é um monstro

Wow! Not only have to memorize the entire map and what will you encounter, but also survive hot zones without the Varia suit! 😲😲 And also the battle with ridley. No words, man!!!

Great run very impressive

Very nice run! Sadly someone just took your first place a week ago :( (but he didn't dare to save the animals so you're still the best)

What song is at 1:05:30 rolling at the end credits?? Thanks! :D What a fantastic run. Zoast is always legendary at this game. RBO is my favorite to watch.

Bruh the Underated levels of this video are crazy

Increíble muchas gracias, mi juego favorito!!

He save the animals, what a true lovely person. Nice speed run :) 💕

The King of Super Metroid strikes again. Gratz! What's next?

I played this game when it originally came out on the snes.. yes I'm old. Regardless, the most impressive run I've ever seen. Watched from beginning to end. Way to completely break the rules. There is no spoon.

I can't believe I just watched this whole video without feeling bored or tired at any point.

Man I'm struggling with the infinite grappling jump on Draygon chamber, I can do it like a pro on the aqueduct but on Dragon's chamber I cant pull it off at all. Do you have any video explaining how to do that? Would be really appreciated.

congrats! sorry I missed it you crazy guy. hopefully I am there for 42 igt. -weee

Newbie to the game here. What happened around 28 minute mark that let you recharge all energy? Is that a glitch? And then again around 34 minutes.

Fluvial beat deposits is such a jam

zoasty I believe sub 1 hour for RBO is possible. Keep going. You can do it! Excellent job here. Oh and play AM2R when you get a chance.

You sir are a legend

Did I see a spike kago on the way to Ridley? :O This is getting ridiculous now :) I bet he would survive all lower norfair without the second reserve tank too. It's that good. Amazing. These RBO runs are cool.

Thanks gor saving the animals

sheesh! you're gonna be shaving minutes off this run here pretty quick.

One history writing run to go on for generations

sick run

what a massive flex to save the animals

Near perfect execution throughout, good game

absolute madman

Zoast, leave some glory for the rest of us.

This is sick

I was unaware that acid was so big in the Metroid community. Good thing I fit right in

what was that music in the statue tunnel before the tourian entrance?

45:25 What is the trick in that part? I do the same, but Samus always hits the underside of the platform

Will you redo this run with the moonwalk fall to shave more time off?

I have come to Draygon and got Space Jump with the yellow suit. But, now I can't get up from there! I have no clue how he does this bouncing up the water thingy at 45:28, and even less how he flies up without using Speed Booster? Anyone help? Or am I stuck :(

Zoasty, as a curiosity, do you remember how many hours that game ended for the first time?

This was 3 years ago but if anyone sees this can you explain why the sound pitch was weird at the metroid cutscene? it kept going higher and lower.

The fuck did I just watch? Simply orgasmic. I did laugh a few times at the twitch comments saying it's a rip off of Halo. Lol. Kids.

Zoasty even saved the animals!

29:40 ここからの流れ、必死感が強めで笑ちゃった

28:24 Caralho não sabia quê podia fazer isso!

The dboost before crocomire. Bruh.... BRUHH...... BRRRUUUUUHHHHHH

gg, zoast. gg. btw, this is doomsday2003 from twitch, soo...hi!

How did you get stored shine spark on Draygon without shine spark kill???

11:50. How do you open that blue gate with super missiles to get that energy tank early? What is the secret?

What's the name of the music playing during the credits?

Disqualified: Reverse Boss Order = Mother Brain First

Me; man how's he gonna do this? Zoast: i control what is real

Nice play zoast

Congratulations Zoasty!!! Curious as to why you saved the animals though? I assume you're going for sub 1:03.

alright, so RBO only applies to main bosses (Ghost guy, fish guy, Kraid and Ridley, gonna assume Mother Brain isn't counted because of the fact that you can't get to her without killing the other guys) but not mini bosses? New to the run type and just curious

Recently got into Super Metroid speedrunning. I didn't even know a Reverse Boss Order speedrun of this game existed. You crushed it! Off topic, but I have a question: What do you play on? Original cartridge? Wii? Emulator?

saving the animals and getting one of the best times. Insane as expected from Zoast

How are you going forward to the right so much during the grappling from 40:29-40:40? You're almost going straight right horizontal, with little vertical.

*watches as samus is on fire yet manages to kill ridley*

Wow....just, wow.

So fucking good! I watch vids like this all the time, but I never comment. So good.

Dude this new route is intense. What do you think the ceiling for this route is? Is a 1:01:xx possible?

why in this game doing a shining spark takes your health?

Holy fuck, you're awesome!

can anyone explain the kills at 33:00? great run zoast!

Oh my god he actually saved the animals

how did you shine spark at 45:40 ?

I started playing this game about a month ago, but without a map near me, with all the items marked, and a bit of help of KZfaq, from time to time, I would be completely lost. What I saw here is just insane 🤯 This is full on bladerunning, not speedrunning.
