This category means Reverse All Minibosses & Boss Order, also known as RBMBO, Reverse Boss MiniBoss Order. Bomb Torizo is not included, not by my decision, but I'm definitely ok with it. When you kill motherbrain, bomb torizo disappears. There is a way to bring BT back, and also a way to skip BT by glitching to the power bombs above the ship before getting regular bombs, but there are also other arguments such as not considering bomb torizo (or ceres ridley) as a boss since they take damage from regular uncharged shots. www.speedrun.com/super_metroid_category_extensions#RBMBO
This was an insane run Zoast, congrats! Really curious though, how can you go about bringing BT back after the escape flag is triggered? Can you reset the escape flag somehow, then re-trigger it with spacetime? Just can't fathom how that's possible haha. Would you mind briefly explaining?
@@JohnSmith-fz1ws I don't really know all the details, but space time is banned in this category. Apparently there is a way to use Xray to undo the escape trigger, then you'd redo the escape trigger, probably similarly to glitched any%. You'd need to do the BT skip in glitched any% in the beginning as well, I guess. Also, thanks!
@@zoasty @John Smith - Congrats on the RBMBO WR, Zoast! This run was really fun to watch. Also, gl with your RBO practice! As Zoast said, X-ray can be used to undo the escape trigger, but you have to be careful, because you have to avoid setting BT's "mini-boss flag" to "defeated" in the process. For example, if you navigate the OoB in Landing Site to get to the location used in Any% Glitched to ACTIVATE the escape flag, but you instead activate X-ray for only a brief moment, you will turn OFF the escape flag (RAM address 7E:D821 will be set to "00"), but BT's flag will be set to "defeated", so he won't appear (RAM address 7E:D828 will be set to "FF"). Same thing unfortunately happens if you navigate to the "backup" location for triggering the escape mentioned in Total's Any% Glitched Tutorial and then briefly activate X-ray while facing right. After a bunch of trial-and-error, I found a strat that sets both 7E:D821 and 7E:D828 to "00", meaning the escape is turned off AND BT's flag is set to "alive." Interestingly, because the strat sets all "nearby" RAM values to "00" as well, the effects are essentially identical to a Spacetime Beam Reset (all bosses/mini-bosses are alive again, all doors are reset to their original states, and all previously collected items re-appear). And, if you save and reset, you'll go back to Ceres. It's like a "beamless" Spacetime Reset. I'll be posting a video on that shortly. I discovered this because I wanted to figure out a way to kill ALL bosses/mini-bosses (*including* BT) with Hyper Beam on console (without cheats/hacks), haha. Mission accomplished. Although, Ceres Ridley will always be off-limits, because you can't re-load a game file and keep Hyper Beam... :( Sorry for the long-winded comment lol. Congrats again, Zoast!
This run is insane. Such amazing strats and precise technique. I had never seen Rambo run before so this WR run was a perfect intro. I have wanted to do a SM song for a while now, but everyone has done the main themes to death at this point. This run gave me the idea to use the Werps from the Tourian elevator glitch and make a house/ trance song with them. I guess will be obligated to call the song Light Switch Rave. I will keep ya posted on the progress.
I could watch a movie while I’m home sick from work, but instead I’m rewatching your mind bending rambo run. Miss your uploads- hope you’re doing well!
Wow...mein Kommentar hier, ist bereits 2 Jahre alt. Hätte ich nicht gedacht! Egal, wie oft ich mir diesen Run ansehe, immer wieder ein Hochgenuss!!! Könnte mir kaum ne schwerere Kategorie vorstellen... Schade, dass keine Videos mehr kommen. :'(
I only just realized that this game hits you with the low-health sound and detonation siren within the first two minutes of playing ‘^-^ Like, “Get used to this, buddy”
Almost a year late, the sound has story purpose as well. The “super” Metroid stops attacking you when that noise starts because it heard that’s noise when “it’s mother” tried to save it so long ago.
People wanna know if Zoasty's still in the ring. People wanna know if Zoasty's doin' his thing. Everybody's talking, wanna know this and that, so I'ma tell ya right now ZOASTY IS BACK~!
Ten years ago, when I discovered about RBO made by humans, I was astonished - but this is beyond any thing I could think possible back then ! Congratulations for this incredible run ! I still got a question : after canceling the escape timer after beating Mother Brain, what's happening if you go back to Tourian and if you return to Mother Brain's boss room ? I think the room is just in "escape mode", isn't it ?
Is there anything about this category that says it has to be suitless? I don't know anything about the out-of-bounds stuff, but I figure with how crazy it all seems that someone should've found a way to get early Gravity Suit by now. Maybe it is possible, but it's just faster to take a bajillion item and farming detours for the Crystal Flash?
? When doing the x-ray wall climb, how do you know when it’s done? Is there a certain number of them? Or does it just pop you out on the elevator? Please and thanks!!
You have to count how many times you wrap around the screen. The out of bounds elevator transition block is high up so you need to either infinite bomb jump up or do a very difficult blind short charge and shinespark.
Just playing Super Metroid for the first time and was stumbling upon this while looking for help at Norfair. Next moment I see this guy rumbling an rolling an doing stuff i don't even remotely get, wtf... still watched till the end tho
2 года назад
If you collect Gravity suit before Varia suit, can also take damage if you going in hot places or into to lava?
gravity protects from heat damage, but you have to defeat phantoon to get it, and the rules of this category prevent you from doing so until after all of norfair.
I can't figure out how the hell you store the shinespark to get out of Draygon's room at 1:06:36. Is it something funky with the out-of-bounds shinespark at 1:04:00? Awesome run, and the route change into Lower Norfair and over to GT was amazing.
i made this comment before the x-ray scope stuff started and now I'm at. . . 46:00 and my mind is just kinda blown. I barely kept up with the TAS, but seeing these strats used in RTA is very impressive, gj on the run.
I don't think moondance is better in this category. With RBO the route is leading you toward ridley... with RAMBO it's leading you back to Tourian so some backtracking is already necessary. I'd have to look at it again to be sure though.
super famicom controller, i switched the cord out to a USA cord because they are longer. Easy to switch cords, they just pull in and out of the circuit board connector.
yeah hyper beam is some weird combination of beams, it reverts to the "normal" beams when you save and reload. you can also skip wave beam early and it gives it a fake wave beam after save and quit. plasma isnt actually in your inventory is the funny thing. if you turn on spazer beam in pause menu for this, you lose plasma beam, b/c you don't legitimately have it.
just to add to this, it’s apparently possible to escape Tourian and kill all the bosses with Hyper Beam (on console) without ever starting the escape timer, so you never have to save and reset to stop the timer... just found this new vid that shows you how: ruclips.net/video/ianlHb4kmtc/видео.html crazy stuff haha
@@kylesarino8053 fun stuff! One of my favorite runs in the past was the old glitched any% with space time beam, but alas it was eventually outdated. I guess it's ok, S/T has a nasty habit of crashing an actual snes. Not totally applicable to this category I think b/c it's not killing mother brain first (and.. getting plasma without killing draygon, and without GT Code would be very difficult and probably slow!) and well, I don't think S/T is allowed for this either : | I don't make the rules! Andreww basically created this category so I guess he did.
@@zoasty haha, yeah, S/T is super finicky, especially whenever I try to escape the GT fight then wrongwarp back to Crateria :/ interestingly, I tried the S/T technique in that vid a bunch of times and it never crashed on console... seems to be comparably stable to the "trigger the escape" technique you use in any% GT. but for sure, that isn't applicable to RAMBO haha. just thought @1993Southparkfan might be interested in a way to avoid saving/resetting so you don't lose Hyper. could imagine it being fun to have a category like "kill all bosses with hyper" that just allows everything (GT, S/T, X-ray climb, and OoB) so it could be completed in a reasonable time... it'd be a glitch fest, but hey, a lot of people love watching glitchy runs like RAMBO lol. plus it'd be interesting to try to optimize that route...

I'm really digging this category, Zoast. I can't wait to see how low you take it.

Ich kenne das Spiel jetzt seit meiner Kindheit, hab aber noch nie gesehen, dass der Wurm von hinter der Wand aus plattgemacht wird. Echt geil!
I kinda feel sorry for all the early bosses getting annihilated by the unexpected plasma beam.
Spore Spawn and Croc may not deserve it, but Phantoon definitely does!
This reminds me of a rando race with a crazy hell run heavy seed. Love it.
Haha this category is fantastic. Some really trippy stuff going on and the route is wild.
Super cool category! This is my first introduction to it, but I am liking it. Cheers and rock on.
Nice run, this category is pretty sick to watch.
This run is a fail. Mini-Kraid should have been killed after Kraid.
lol :)
This category is nuts and this run is godly :)
The Waver ride to X-Ray is always so fun to see.
Ten years ago, when I discovered about RBO made by humans, I was astonished - but this is beyond any thing I could think possible back then !

I still got a question : after canceling the escape timer after beating Mother Brain, what's happening if you go back to Tourian and if you return to Mother Brain's boss room ? I think the room is just in "escape mode", isn't it ?
Samus runs like she doesnt have any toilet paper left
Epilepsy warning: you now have epilepsy from watching all those x-ray dance party skips
It’s a lot worse when you put it at 2x speed. Especially the part where he uses it to get to Tourian.
Is there a no major glitches version of this? (i.e. Mother Brain excluded from the reversing of the order)?
yeah, that's just normal RBO which is a no major glitch category, shinyzeni has WR for that
44:56 Why did Ridley's theme with the alarms change to the normal one without the alarms in the room before the elevator to red Brinstar?
Very interesting. You have to use different skills. I love it!
Cant wait to see this TAS'd
what an interesting category
At the end the person in chat saying "RAMBO leaves no man behind!" when explaining why you saved the animals made me do a spit take.
*This is why we don’t take drugs kids*
Damn this game is sick
Animals have been saved
They closed all the bars and pubs for the virus, but here we still can dance to a sweet lightswitch rave
There should be a category where the order of bosses is chosen at random. If there isn't already (I'm guessing there is).

I guess I could've Googled it. Apparently, the Gravity Suit doesn't even show up until Phantoon is dead.
I suppose the off/on wrecked ship is implemented as 2 different places, with beating Phantoon changing some door transitions.
27:03.... seeing the HP.... nice!

45:26 - ZA WARUDO! TOKI WO TOMARE!

i was thinking this would be backwards from ridley to sporespawn, possibly with a BT skip. Why break the game? still awesomely executed

What ist Rambo "humbo%“
Great! Now, do RIO 100%, that is "Reverse Item Order" with Morph ball as the last pick up.
now that would be insane.
That would be full of fun glitches as that is logically impossible
I wonder how much time the Moondance strat will save since the trip up red tower for first PB's wouldn't be necessary.
I don't think moondance is better in this category. With RBO the route is leading you toward ridley... with RAMBO it's leading you back to Tourian so some backtracking is already necessary. I'd have to look at it again to be sure though.
