The Great Metroid Area Ranking: Phazon Mines + Ridley’s Lair

Welcome back to The Great Metroid Area Ranking, the Omega-Tier Patreon exclusive show where I, Andy Spiteri, will be ranking every single area in the Metroid series! Every month, we’ll rank a couple areas from the series, and on the docket, we have two areas famous (or infamous) for their punishing gauntlet of enemies: Metroid Prime’s Phazon Mines and NEStroid’s Ridley’s Lair! Joining me this month is Daniel Hoctor, and we have no shortage of topics! From the unique enemies to the scary soundtracks to the heavyweight boss battles, we go through it all and throw these new areas in our great ranking!

Join the fun and consider signing up to Omega Metroid on Patreon to influence what areas get covered!
