An Elden Ring streamer has beaten Margit using just one finger and aims to complete the game in exactly the same way. MissMikkaa is famous for her Elden Ring challenge runs which only get more and more ludicrous after each one.

Challenge runs are a staple of FromSoftware's catalog and have only grown more popular (and ridiculous) over the years. What started as seemingly impossible attempts to finish Dark Souls without taking a hit or leveling up has become a content powerhouse among YouTubers and Twitch streamers.

Even that achievement only took 199 attempts, which is less than some have accumulated when playing a single version of Elden Ring traditionally.

But MissMikkaa was not satisfied and is now trying to beat Elden Ring with just one finger on the controller.

Attacking with a DualSense controller would typically require R1 to be pressed, but the input has been changed to the D-pad instead. Movement is handled by the bottom of her finger and camera control has been sacrificed, meaning that there is a heavy reliance on the target lock to complete encounters.
