Welcome, Comrade, to Super LP Bros.


Super LP Bros is a website mainly dedicated to the magical world of "Let's Play's". A Let's Play is a video or series of pictures in which the creator plays through a video game (usually from start to finish) and explains all about the game and shows off little-known details along the way. Our aim is to bring the LPing community together. It's our goal to offer help to anyone who strives to improve their own Let's Play's. If you've read to this point I'd say it's high time you join our little community. You'll be making new friends and improving your LP's in no time. We may not be the most "Politically Correct" forum out there, but we all have a good time. Registration is simple, fast, and only requires you to sell us your soul.

Hm, I was considering Phantoon myself, since it would let me go pretty much everywhere easily. At least he Varia suit), but I think BMS is right. I'm going for the grappling beam and Crocmire, myself, there'll be a challenge!

Objection. Your testimony is false.
I wish I could have done this. Based on my practice run I would have gotten second with 66%. Oh well my loss.

I however do say that you should fight phantoon.

If I would of stayed in this race I would of picked Phantoon, since Crocomire is somewhat useless IMO. But I wish you all the best of luck to those that are still in this race
Please feel free to check my Let's Plays

No offense to Crocomire, but the grappling beam isn't even necessary to beat the game.
Of course it's not required! But given the current option of bosses, making the trek through Norfair again without the Varia of Gravity Suit would be the hardest of the choices. Plus, while the extra E-tank would allow exploration of certain areas, it wouldn't be anything major, like the Varia or Gravity suit would. In other words, I'm hoping for the hardest route possible...something like this:

Crocomire-->Golden Torizo-->Spore Spawn & Kraid-->Ridley-->Phantoon-->Botwoon & Draygon-->PROFIT!

Defeating Croco would give us access to another much needed E-Tank, which would in turn allow us enough energy to comfortably beat the Golden Torizo, (but not TOO comfortable!), in Lower Norfair, (Have to enter his room from the back entrance, but still very possible, especially since there's an energy refill station right outside. Then tackle SS & Kraid, which would give us the Varia and another E-Tank, which is more than enough equipment to defeat Ridley. After that, beat Phantoon to access a plethora of items, including the Gravity Suit, which would allow us to access Botwoon and Draygon to finish off the main part of the game!

Beating Phantoon right off the bat will give us the most powerful suit, and therefore take out any sort of challenge from the rest of this contest, in my humble opinion.

Difficult this way? Yes, but then again, contests like this aren't meant to be easy!
I'll make you suffer a fate far worse than anything ever experienced before!

I'm just tired of doing hell runs through Norfair really. Not saying beating crocomire is impossible at this point, he's pretty much screwed, plus Phantoon is cooler. Also, so what if it takes the challenge out of it anyway? You've pretty much wrapped this up anyway BMS (BTW hell of a job on your run, if I didn't compliment you already.)

I'm not interested in ordinary menu items!
Not sure if my opinion matters, since I'm not in this anymore, but I agree with BMS.

Lol, people actually get worked up over this.
Unless everyone throws the competition, I'm screwed.
Either way I voted for Phantoon a few days ago.
I should really stop considering things impossible.
Yeah, I've been to the dark side. They lied about the cookies.

Well, I wanted Phantoon at first since it's what I'm most comfortable fighting first. I changed this after BMS's post to Crocmire, agreeing that it would make things too easy. I changed my mind after even that back to Phantoon, realizing just what I'd be making myself do beating only Crocmire. In the end, what I really wanted was Kraid, though. Not too hard, not too easy.

This is a contest for the people though. I've voiced my opinion a few times, but I've abstained from voting. The final vote is in for Crocmire. We get to go lava-diving. The votes were 3 to 2 in Crocmire's favor. I'll take down the poll. Feel free to get started on recording the next segment, but I wouldn't be sending me the runs for a while unless you want me cheating off of you. I'm a bit busy these coming days, but it should lighten up next week. I'll record and upload my run asap, and I won't give a final deadline until I finish my run. It'll probably be a week from then.

So get set people. Next up: Crocmire Kraid and Spore Spawn

Well, I'm out then. I'm not going to be able to get anywhere. Also I counted the votes, and I'm pretty sure only 2 people voted for Crocomire, but it's 1 AM here, so I could be seeing things.

I think the third one came in late. I guess I closed the poll not long after. I'm not sure who it was that voted.
Also, you at least got to Crocmire's door. A few rooms after him don't hurt you, and there's a place to farm life.

Looking back now, I realize only three of us, one being BMS, got to Crocmire's door. Despite winning the voting, will so many people be unable to get there and participate? I may need to redo this poll.

I've gotten there, in practice runs, but I found it to be pointless, and therefore did not go down there in the actual run.

I can get to his door and fight him, but I don't really see fighting him opening up much more of the game, that's why I voted for Phantoon, Kraid would have been my second choice though. One gives you access to Maridia, the other Norfair. Crocomire doesn't really grant access to anything.

But, if its Crocomire then its Crocomire.

maybe Kraid is a good alternative since getting the grappling beam doesn't really open much. Kraid would open some with the Varia Suit, but not too much with Phantoon and the Gravity Suit.
Also Naka yes I can get to his door and fight him and beat him rather quickly, It's just as I said before, doesn't really open much else to do. Guess I'll stay tuned for more updates on this.

Well, since there's some dissent to fighting Crocmire, but I still believe Phantoon would make things too easy. Could we agree on fighting Kraid then? It would make things easier, but not nearly as easy as Phantoon.
