Disguised Toast, a prominent member of the streamer group Offline TV (OTV), suffered a hilarious death at the hands of the optional Elden Ring boss Melania, Blade of Miquella.
Disguised Toast has been playing Elden Ring since the game was released and has recently adopted a playstyle that he and many others call the 'one-shot build.' The build uses an extremely powerful spell called Comet Azur, which fires a beam of magic straight at the opponent. Paired with a special spell-enhancing staff called Lusat's Glionstone Staff and some added magic buffs from the Flask of Wonderous Physick, the build is able to take down many high-level enemies in mere seconds.
Toast shared a video of this in action, facing off against one of the game's more challenging bosses named Margott, the Omen King, completely decimating the boss in just four seconds.

While this magic build is very strong, it has a very clear disadvantage against bosses that don't stand in one place. This fact was made very clear when Toast attempted to face off against the optional boss Melania, Blade of Miquella. Before the fight began, Melania claimed that she had never been defeated, which prompted Toast to claim that he would be her downfall.
"Heed my words... I am Melania, Blade of Miquella... And I have never known defeat..." / "Hoh, hoh, hoh, until now! Activate -"

With such a great moment showing why the 'one-shot build' has its flaws, maybe Toast will have to adapt the technique to account for such a fast, close-quarters boss like Melania.
