Elden Ring is home to many stories of heroism and bravery, but one in particular was not written by FromSoftware. The legend of Let Me Solo Her, an Elden Ring chad who helped players defeat Malenia, has received proper recognition from Bandai Namco.
Malenia is known to be the most challenging head of Elden Ring, so the cooperative invocation signal from Let Me Solo Her was a welcome sight for anyone who wanted to beat her. The legend has done it alone more than 1,000 times.
Klein Tsuboi, the person behind the character, revealed on Twitter that Bandai Namco, the editor of Elden Ring, sent them a package of attention. The newsletter box includes a real game sword, a coat to wear, a world map, a work of art and a personalized note, all in a very gift box.
Tsuboi posted images of the batch on Twitter, thanking the Souls community for their support and calling on big names from content creators like VaatiVidya, IronPineapple, Zullie the Witch, BonfireVN and others as inspiration.
Although you may not believe it given his skills, Tsuboi started with Dark Souls 3, and was almost left with the head of the game tutorial, Iudex Gundyr!
He continued to enjoy the game, because this community is one of the most passionate and dedicated people I’ve ever seen in a game, and I’m proud to be a part of it. Many people shaped me who I am today, including Vaati, Fighter .Pl, IronPineapple, ChasetheBro, Zullie, (2/3) pic.twitter.com/87kHboHFIr

Tsuboi rose to fame shortly after the release of Elden Ring. While many would offer help in defeating Malenia, Let Me Solo Her was more consistent than most, and they had the bravery and taste to prove it. Tsuboi always arrived with the same look: with only a loincloth and a boat-shaped helmet, and equipped with two katanas.
Those iconic images inspired many fan art, and even earned her Let me Solo Her her own mod, turning them into an NPC.
