How to unlock the First Throwdown achievement in Dead or Alive 5 - Definitive Guide

All you have to do is have someone added to your fighter list (which you do in the post-fight menu after fighting them). Then you just go into the fighter list and click them to send the challenge. A lot of times it will come back with saying they "Currently cannot fight" which seems to mean basically the server couldn't locate them, but if it gives you the 'Waiting for..." screen, you will get the achievement, even if they don't accept the challenge.

Select Online from the main menu, then choose the option to view your Fighter List. Naturally you have to register someone after fighting them in either Simple or Ranked Match. Select someone on your list and press the A-button to send a Throwdown challenge. It doesn't matter if they accept or not, you just have to send the challenge.

This achievement is a little finicky. It didn't unlock the first time I sent a challenge. If it doesn't unlock, then back out, select Fighter List, and try again.

Metamania2313 - Check out my solution. As I explained, the achievement is just for SENDING the challenge, not necessarily for having it accepted. What happened in your case is simply that the person either went offline while your invitation was pending, or they simply didn't accept. In either event you still "sent a throwdown challenge" which is why you got it.

Something weird happened when I got this achievement. It showed the opponent on my list, but once I sent out my throwdown, it said that they weren't there anymore and the achievement still unlocked.

There's a lot of confusion over this....GARANTEED method is to be in TRAINING mode with throwdowns on accept. Not arcade,vs etc you just keep getting the other player can't fight blah blah blah. Hope this helps

for this achievement you will need a friend to go into versus or arcade mode and they will have to turn on their THROWDOWNS settings then they need to start their game and wait for an invite from you which you should have them in your fighters list to do this and keep sending intill accepted then the achievement should pop up! =3

After you have added someone to your Fighter List send them a Throwdown Challenge through the menu of your Fighter List and the trophy should unlock. On some occasion the game will say it hasn’t gone through, keep repeating until the trophy pops.
