As if beating Melania – arguably Alden Ring’s toughest boss – wasn’t enough of an achievement on its own, Twitch streamer MissMikkaa just defeated two Melanias at once with a controller and dance pillow
MissMikkaa achieved this amazing feat during an “Ultimate Challenge Run” where she challenged herself to play “two Elden Rings games simultaneously with different controllers (Dance Pad and PS5 DualSense).” She also had to kill the “bosses in the same attempt in both game instances”.

2x Melania defeated! After 3 days and 199 attempts Melania dies in the Ultimate Challenge Run where I play Alden Ring twice at the same time (with dance floor and controller). At first I wasn’t even sure if this run was possible. Radagon/Elden Beast is next! pic.twitter.com/cS9VQLvrlE

It took her three days and 199 tries, but she won in the end. She plans to take down the next Radgon/Alden Beast, and who knows what other challenges she will face in the future.
We spoke to MissMikkaa in November 2022 and she walked us through how she beat Alden Ring completely with a dance pad, and that was even after she beat Melania at Level 1 with the same dance pad.
Melania was one of the toughest challenges in recent memory in the world of video games, and the difficulty of her battle inspired the rise of, alongside MissMikkaa and others, one of Alden Ring’s most legendary acts, Let Me Solo Her. This player would show up in player games to single-handedly take Melania down, and we also talked to them about how they became heroes to everyone.
