I've wanted to update my tutorials for awhile, and even though I just made one of these in 2022, I felt like with a new format I thought up and also with a few advancements that have happened in the game since then, it was appropriate to do a new version.

This tutorial is for beginner to intermediate level players that are wanting to learn and or improve their movement in Super Metroid speedruns.
