		+	Although this route is the one recommended by Nintendo, it does present some sections of the run that make the collection of individual items more difficult than in the standard Any% KPDR or 100% routes.
		+
		+	In the standard 100% route, visiting [[Green Bubbles Missile Room]] is done on the way out of Lower Norfair, allowing the runner to easily use [[Space Jump]] to cross the top of [[Bubble Mountain]]. In this route, the runner has neither Space Jump or [[Grappling Beam]], so another way must be found. The fastest is to charge a shinespark in [[Speed Booster Hall]] and [[Bat Cave]], and then spark across. Other alternative strats, in order of speed, are [[Damage Boost\|Damage Boosting]] across the gap with a [[Waver]], doing a delayed [[Walljump]] off of the wall below the door, and infinite [[Bomb Jumping]].
		+
		+	This route also requires collecting [[Spring Ball]] without [[Space Jump]], which makes either method of getting through the [[Pants Room]] (jumping through the grapple block, or the ice clip) more difficult.

	<blockquote>There has been a discussion about the rules and order in which to finish certain objectives. Basically the point of the discussion was that the rules enforce finishing objectives in the order given by the nintendo power guide. However this left an uncertainty about when the "Defeat X" goal is actually achieved and if its possible to finish the next objective (i.e. picking up an item) before the actual death flag of a boss is set but after dealing the "death blow" to said boss. After debating the intentions behind the run and the exact wording, the official decision on this issue is now that a boss being defeated is NOT the same as a boss being dead. For this matter it is explicitly allowed to pick up the Croc E-Tank before Crocs drops spawn (but after pushing him into the acid) and to pick up the GT-Supers before GTs drops spawn (but after he starts exploding).</blockquote>		<blockquote>There has been a discussion about the rules and order in which to finish certain objectives.
