RL1 +0 Claymore VS Malenia - No Hit, Buffs, Aux, AoW, or BH Step - Elden Ring

This was my first +0 weapon challenge vs Malenia, and probably the most difficult challenge I've attempted yet. This was by no means a perfect fight, but damn was it satisfying. After this, I can definitely see how some people would view her as unfair. She has several moves that are unstaggerable even if you reduce her poise health to 0 (like Waterfowl) which make neutral attacks against her risky. She has a frontflip move that she usually does after the kick (and several other moves) which has a startup that is nearly impossible to react to, so punishing the kick is risky. There's also Waterfowl which I died to more than everything else combined. Overall, it's easy to get a hold of her moveset, but her ability to completely break the rules make it so in a long fight like this, it's very easy to die to something that is not your fault. My inspiration for this fight was ‪@Zott_‬ with his +0 Zweihander kill against Malenia.
