How to unlock the Soul Saver achievement in Guitar Hero Aerosmith - Definitive Guide
Alright, this one is quite tricky. It is best done with a buddy. Set up an online ranked match and have you buddy look. There's not many folks playing the game, so it should be easy. Play the mode and try to tie during it. The Death Drain will appear during a 'overtime' mode that will happen if there is a tie. In order to get the cheevo, just use that power-up and defeat your opponent. (Then help him/her get it too!)

If you decide to coordinate this with a friend, and just want to get it over quickly, it is best to use the shortest song in the game, Bright Light Fright, which clocks in at just over 2 minutes.

Okay what people dont seem to be saying on this website is it MUST be done on a ranked 1 song battle,anymore then a 1 song match and it will not unlock,i was trying this for almost a hour before seeing that it must be done on a 1 song match
You can easily do this while playing your 20 online ranked matches. Just play at a level you are comfortable with and save your attacks at the end of the song. When it goes into sudden death, wait for the first group of battle stars and fire your normal attacks (whammy is good here) so they miss some of the battle stars and don't get an attack. Deploy your death drain to end the match. Out of the 20 ranked matches you'll have to play someone is sure to fall for this.

A death drain attack occurs once both players have completed a song in Battle Mode without failing and enter sudden death. This causes the song to restart and any battle power-ups used activate the death drain mode, in which two skulls appear on your opponent's fret board and move down the screen making it harder for your opponent to see his (or her) notes. Once the skulls get to the bottom of their board your opponent will lose the game and you will get the achievement.
I recommend hosting a 1 song match to get this as it doesn't seem to unlock in a match that has more songs.
