You have to Attack the Lich and defeat it to earn its token and unlock the achievement.
You fight the Lich plus a random enemy card. I found it was easiest to defeat the other enemies while deflecting the Lich's fireballs. Once it is alone focus on the Lich, reflecting the fireballs until he teleports next to you, then melee him until he teleports away. Repeat.
It is helpful to have a shield so you can deflect the fireballs and know when to counter.

As you advance in the story mode, you will eventually unlock the Lich encounter so kill her and the minions to get the trophy. I found this the most difficult of the encounter trophies. The Lich shoots fireballs at you. Counter them (
), and you'll damage her, if you can't avoid them by a roll (
). There are skull minions on the field and the Lich will heal herself with the minions but she also heals the minions when you try to kill them.
My tactic was to focus on her and avoided all the dodgeable attacks, countered her ranged attacks, when she is hit she teleports, where she was the floor will burn and damage you so countering range was better for me so I didn't get hurt by the burning floor. I had more time to counter and could run around avoiding melee skulls but whatever tactic you choose should be fine, as long as you kill her you'll get the trophy. The encounter cards locked in your deck until you beat her. You do have to option to avoid a fight if you don't feel ready.
