How to unlock the Who's Deadliest Now? achievement in Deadliest Warrior: The Game - Definitive Guide
All right. In the options menu adjust the difficulty to deadliest. Simply play through the arcade mode as the Ninja, Viking, and Knight.
I found the Ninja's combo X,X,Y,Y was very effective. The Viking can one shot kill enemies with his projectile. Learning the timing for this move is extremely valuable.
The Knight gave me lots of trouble. He's slow and gets knocked off balance after a hit. What I had to do was play the arcade mode with the knight on normal to unlock the mace. Equip the mace and use A,A,Y to level the playing field.
If you ever face an opponent that gives you a bunch of trouble, launch your projectiles at him then run around the map until runs out. Cowardly, but effective!

This one is very self-explanatory. Switch the difficulty to Deadliest from the main menu, then begin and finish Arcade Mode with the Ninja, Viking and Knight. If you lose a match, then you can retry so you won't have to start from scratch if you die so it isn't too bad but it can be difficult.
Gerenal Tips:
- Don't forget about your projectile weapons! If your opponent is across the battlefield, why not send a few projectiles their way? Sometimes they will land, giving you some nice free damage on them! Also, sometimes the projectile will stick through the enemy's head and instantly kill them. Bonus!
- Don't forget you can change weapon in the middle of the battle. Pressing will switch to a different weapon with a different range. If you're having difficulty getting close enough to use your close range weapon, switch to one with a little more length.
- Use your finishing blow attacks. You can see what these are through the moves list. These pack a very powerful punch, so take advantage of any breaks in your opponent's guard and use it. They don't need to be in critical health, it still does a lot of damage, but if they are in critical health it will perform a nifty execution.
- Blocking is absolutely key. If you aren't attacking, I recommend always having your block up with or . You still take damage while blocking but it is significantly less. Blocking is the difference between a win and a loss in this game. Don't forget to use it! You'll be surprised how big of a difference it makes.
- The right stick () allows you to dodge roll, or sidestep. This is almost as essential as blocking. It allows you to roll out of the way of an incoming attack, and leaves your opponent's back open to a strike of your own. You can dodge roll away from the enemy if you are in critical health. There's no shame in pulling out (that's what she said). Backing away from the enemy will give you time for your stamina to build back up, allowing for better attacks, blocks and sidesteps. A good dodge will can save your life and know when to pull out.
- Your opponent not letting their guard down? Throw a leg sweep or shield bash! Press to sweep the ground/smack them with your shield to knock your opponent of his feet or break his guard. This can give you precious time to strike.
