But despite her infamous reputation, a Twitch streamer took her down with ease using only one hand while at rune level 1. Among the myriad of bosses, Malenia quickly became infamous among the Elden Ring community. Despite her small figure, at least compared to the usual monstrosities, Malenia is an absolute behemoth of a boss fight. \u201cI am Malenia. Blade of Miqella. And I have never known defeat.\u201d Her now iconic line sends chills down the spines of casual players \u2014 who see her as an overwhelming wall to surmount. But for Twitch Streamer MissMiikkaa, it\u2019s just another day at the office. She\u2019s been playing the entire game at rune level 1 \u2014 a popularized challenge to maximize difficulty. But on top of this already near impossible limitation, MissMikkaa added one more variable to the mix: she\u2019s playing one-handed. On top of the usual face cam, Miikkaa has a second webcam showcasing her inputs, where her left hand is constantly poised over a PlayStation controller. The other hand has a Twitch sock covered over it, to ensure she\u2019s not using both hands while playing. After all, if a bright purple sock randomly appeared on screen, it\u2019d be rather obvious. It takes Miikkaa a couple of tries to beat Malenia \u2014 but it\u2019s evident from her initial movements against Malenia the streamer has a good handle on the fight. \u201cI\u2019m not even looking at the screen while I\u2019m dodging. Is that a good sign?\u201d she conversed with her viewers, enjoying back and forth engagement with her Twitch Chat. On the final run, she weaved expertly between each sword slash \u2014 displaying skill the majority of two-handed players couldn\u2019t even begin to mimic. Before slaying Malenia, Mikkaa exclaimed, \u201cthis is actually really good,\u201d following up by dealing the final blow. The Twitch streamer let out a cheer: \u201coh my god, we got her. Wooo!\u201d She then threw the sock-covered hand and her playing hand into the air \u2014 delighted by the well earned victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elden Ring streamer ups the difficulty using only one hand to challenge Malenia Bandai NamcoMalenia is known as one of the hardest bosses in Elden Ring.
