Naked Elden Ring Player Will Beat The Game's Hardest Boss For You

It's hard to decide who to give the title of Elden Ring's hardest boss to, and while it was once Starscourge Radahn, most will agree it's now Malenia, Blade of Miquella. Traversing the Lands Between is hard enough on its own, but in terms of optional bosses, Malenia and her Scarlet Rot are unfathomable in terms of difficulty.
We already know that Game of Thrones' George R.R. Martin helped build the lore surrounding Elden Ring, which explains why things are so complicated with the Godricks, Godfreys, Malenias, and Marikas of this world. FromSoft is already poised to "expand the franchise," but it turns out players are doing it for them thanks to one naked hero.
How Is Someone Beating Malenia?
This bizarre piece of world-building comes courtesy of a vigilante known as "Let Me Solo Her". While we're not sold on the name, they've become as famous as Blaidd, Alexander the Pot Guy, or the Turtle Pope. Posting on Reddit, u/sazed813 explained how they were struggling to best Malenia. Don't worry, we feel you there. They used the Summoning Sign to gather some allies - enter Let Me Solo Her.
Wearing nothing but a pot on their head and a pair of skimpy pants, Let Me Solo Her has become the Lands Between's very own Batman. Jumping into battle when you need them and pummelling even Elden Ring's strongest into a bloody pulp. The OP describes the moment they stepped up to "a man, wearing nothing but a jar on his head, holding 2 katanas, named 'let me solo her'."
Explaining what happened next, they added: "The man took no damage except from some rot on the flower attack. He was flawless, and put all my attempts to shame. I definitely didn't kill Malenia, but either way, she is dead." Let Me Solo Her has since gone viral, with players adding them to the already massive lore of the Lands Between. Why are they naked, are they hideously scarred beneath their pot, do they have some sort of tie to Marika and Radagon?
What's Next For Let Me Solo Her?
Given the closeness of the Elden Ring community, it wasn't long before Let Me Solo Her was welcomed in with open arms. Taking their newfound fame in their stride, Let Me Solo Her has even made a YouTube video proving their credentials. This "gigachad" of Elden Ring has become the subject of memes and fan art, proving they aren't going anywhere yet. Our favourite piece comes courtesy of u/MrHappyTinkles, depicting Let Me Solo Her standing over the slain corpse of Malenia.
It's not just Malenia that needs to watch out for Let Me Solo Her though, the other demigods should be quaking in their boots. There's already a new contender in the arena, with someone finding Let Me Solo Him - who is taking on Mohg. For all we know, there could be a whole Let Me Solo family out there, with these pot-headed heroes determined to help the downtrodden Tarnished. We'll be keeping our eyes peeled.
