Sit back, get comfy and absorb yourself in the brand new and insanely input-heavy piece of glitch tech in Metroid Dread, the Shine Sink Clip. Learn these steps and drill them to perfection to execute what is currently the hardest to execute trick in all of Metroid Dread
Cheat Sheet:
Step 1 - Flash Slide Wall Clip
Face the wall and stand against it. Hold Flash and flash backwards to have the right distance for a clip. After recharge, flash towards the wall, slide immediately, let go of flash and turn around.
Step 2 - Gaining Shine Sink Properties
The instant that Samus lurches back hard during the FSWC animation, release the analog stick and press B to activate a Sinking Shine.
Step 3 - Grapple Phasing
Wait a moment until you've sunk a small amount, then hold up diagonal away from the wall, hold slide, hold grapple and fire all in one very fast chain.
There is a whole lot of other miscellaneous info about things that have been discovered as possible with this and tiny intricacies, but that's omitted because it's not important enough when trying to just get the clip for the first time. Work is still being done to confirm what exactly is possible with the Shine Sink Clip so much of this info may be subject to change, just doing my bit to give a full resource so others don't need to walk people curious about this skip through it.
Shine Sink narrowly wins out as an appropriate title over WATI. What is WATI? Wati is What Are The Inputs. A question that us lab rats were probably asked about a hundred times in the past 18 hours alone. That is mostly what made me want to create this breakdown.
Memes aside though, this is a tremendously important piece of tech that will no doubt forge some interesting potential paths and strategies for Dread's any% category. Who knows for hundo honestly.
I shall add any extraneous information here shortly, but for now...I've honestly been labbing this trick all day and spending all night making this video. I am tired. Now you know the inputs.
Enjoy! :)
