A solo, melee only Rune Level 1 (RL1) speed kill of 1:32 min from entering the fight (00:09) to last hit (1:41). If counting from first hit dealt to Radahn (0:59), this is a 40 seconds fast kill. Done Pre-nerf.
Build : Rune Level 1, Frost Scavenger's sword +15, Blood Bandits curved sword +15, Radagon's Soreseal, Turtle talisman, Ritual sword talisman, +10 str/dex potion and fashion armor.
Personal Rules for this challenge :
Solo, No Ashes, melee only
No damage, including horse hits/staggers
Only pre-capital gear to avoid being at +25 with endgame items and just oneshotting Radahn, which would not really be a good spectacle.

![Sekiro - Inner Isshin Base Vitality/Posture Hardmode Sword only [Flawless]
The standard p1 2 hits loop is impossible to consistently do on Inner version because of a close range variant of his uppercut into sweep he can instantly do after a first deflect. Huge thanks to spiral for sharing his thrust strat to force a hard deflect directly instead, the rest of the fight plays out pretty much as usual. He didnt get a chance to do his sweep jump combo though, but whatever.
Reflection version of the boss. No lightning reversals. Harmode means Demon Bell + No Kuros Charm (Charmless). Great fight it was ! :) Sekiro - Inner Isshin Base Vitality/Posture Hardmode Sword only [Flawless]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/oW8nk_vaFcU/mqdefault.jpg)

![Elden Ring - Level 1 Fire Giant [No Damage]
A solo, melee only kill at Rune Level 1 (RL1) of the Fire Giant, required boss protecting the forge of giants needed to burn down the Erdtree and progress in the main storyline.
Straightforward and rather simple boss, besides the fireballs timing and the chaotic camera views. Phase 2 seems to encourage you to hit his hand for bonus damage, but you can get easier openings on his knees instead throughout phase 2, making targetting weak spots kind of pointless. Oh well.

![Sekiro - ORin of the Water Base Vitality/Posture Hardmode Sword only [Flawless]
Would be a pretty cool fight if it wasnt for the fixed distance attacks and arena jank. No wonder why hitless and challenge runners altogether cheese her as soon as they get the chance.

![Elden Ring - Level 1 Loretta, Knight of the Haligtree [No Damage]
A solo, melee only kill at Rune Level 1 (RL1) of Loretta, Knight of the Haligtree, optional boss guarding the access to Elphael and the city of the Haligtree where Malenia is hiding.
This boss is quite enjoyable, dodging the magic attacks is satisfying and an extra bonus to the already solid moveset of Tree sentinels. Figuring out how to strafe her halberd swings and which of the magic swords-summoning moves had a hitbox or not was also part of the fun.

![Elden Ring - Level 1 NG+7 Malenia, Blade of Miquella speedkill [No Damage]
Did you know she is in fact Malenia, Blade of Miquella ?
A solo, melee only (with the exception of pots) speedkill at Rune Level 1 (RL1) in NG+7 (Max New Game cycle) of Malenia, Blade of Miquella, of 1:21 minute from health bar showing (00:24) to last hit (1:45). If counting from first hit dealt to Malenia (0:32), this is a 1:13 minute fast kill. Also done with no hits taken.
I do not recommend doing this to anyone. This boss is extremely frustrating and RNG when it comes to trying to get a fast kill with the ability to block your hits and dash away at the other side of the arena in p1 and stall for dozen of seconds with some of her p2 moves like the Phantom summons or Scarlet Aeonia spells. It doesnt help that shes also a very difficult boss to fight to begin with, let alone playing aggressive against her for a good pace.
Props to Brian (mrBorkd) for pointing me out the frost pots strat for flurry/ 2nd scarlet aeonia, which I didnt have the angle to do in this kill unfortunately. Sick strat, though.

![HK - Nightmare King Grimm 1:20 speedkill [Radiant] [Nail only]
This is a 1:20 kill, counting from NKG appearing in the arena (0:13) to last hit (1:33). Finally, 1:20 is done. This is as optimized as I can take it, theres no pushing it further now without falling into basic RNG grind to get as many fire pillars as possible, which would be completely uninteresting. Im happy with this.
Ive done a radiant nail only charmless fight against NKG but forgot to upload it, so I might either post it or try and get a more fun kill with him soon.
Charms setup (as shown in the end of the video) : Unbreakable Strength, Quick Slash, Long Nail, Steady Body, Sprintmaster, Mark of Pride.
