Harnessing the legacy of the iconic Leroy Jenkins and Let Me Solo Her, a new champion has set themselves upon Helldivers 2, as the new hit wonder title has found its match.

Despite being a title that revolves around teamwork, cohesion, and even comical army-talk communication - roger - one player has now marked themselves as the true lone ranger.

Having conquered the game for themselves, Helldivers 2 player ".atasu" is singlehandedly taking on everybody else's crusades, saving souls, and waging war against the game master.

Helldivers 2 has its own Let Me Solo Her hero

 

 

 

Let Me Solo Her is Elden Rings' own nudist-turned-hero, who charges into battle with nothing but his sword, and his Katana, wailing in the wind, and has mastered the art of chopping down the most fearsome bosses with ease.

.atasu is cut from the same cloth, although he dons more cloth on their Helldivers 2 characters, and has taken it upon himself to respond to as many SOS calls as possible to single-handedly take down the most fearsome beasts that the game has to offer.

Taking to Reddit, the user said, "If you place an SOS beacon, that means you ask for help with completing the main obj. Thus, I will try to save you from imminent danger and lead you towards victory."

"If I see 3 dudes constantly dying into a useless bug hole - I will head to the obj cleaning all places of interest I come across and save all the samples I see."

"After more than 200 hours of playing, the only thing I collect from missions are SuperCreds and Democrating Liberty ofc," he added.

The player does often run into parties who are struggling, unavoidably, and will even offer up some high-level gear for his fellow assailants as a goodwill gesture for future battles.

In an interview with IGN, the Helldivers 2 soloist continued pioneering his conquest to help everyone.

"I remember being a cadet and trying to figure out how to kill a Charger. Now if I see someone struggling with something, I try to reach out and help them," he said.

While the user is not "flawless" and sometimes does perish to his own Scorcher, he often takes down objectives on his own, teaching players how to do certain mechanics through the voice chat, and even comes with the patience to allow other players the opportunity to loot before exfiltrating.

It's not yet known how the puppeteer legend "Joel" has taken the news about the champion of the people, but Helldivers 2's game master will likely strike back, and continue making the title harder than ever before.
