“Let me solo her” is a recent community member that got quite a bit of spotlight. It all started with this reddit thread where reddit user sazed813 made a post about his experience encountering a hero while fighting Malenia. This was later confirmed when the man himself KleinTsuboiOW made his own thread. From there the story spread to twitter and the Internet did its thing. Memes were made and fanart was created. This whole situation is a classic Souls community type of event, where something happens spontaneously due to the actions of an unknown but great player. But now that the community is bigger than ever before it reaches the mainstream. Resulting in this getting its own page on Know Your Meme.

 4/9/22 News from Neogaf

Neogaf forum user Draugoth noticed that on Steam, all mention of online play for the Dark Souls games has been removed. Shortly before Elden Rings’ release, a dangerous multiplayer exploit was found that could allow someone to access your PC. This is most likely due to that, but its unfortunate that it seems this issue might take longer to resolve than initially thought.
