Maya
One of Maya's special characteristics is her daggers. She has moves which she can throw the daggers, at which point they will fall to the ground. To pick them up go to where the dagger is and press
.
Combo Breakers
If the AI has captured you in a combo, try doing a High combo breaker (
or 
+ 
). The AI will usually go for High attacks.
Combos
Aerial attacks hit a good percentage of times, so try using these to start your combos. Try keeping your combos up until your bar, which represents your Knockdown Value Meter, is almost full and then make sure to end your combos (a list of Combo Enders is available in game under Command List). Use your Shadow Moves as well since they don't have Knockdown Value.
Throws
While throws don't do much damage, they are unblockable, so if an AI is blocking to much, get through it. It is also useful to guarantee a hit when they have low health.
Instinct
Possession Rite: Summons the Temperance and Vengeance daggers to Maya.
Upon activating Instinct, your KV Meter will empty, so use this to extend your combos.
When activated, you can spam
/ since the daggers will return to you.

Re-stating the the achievement description in a drawn out way isn't really helpful (and goes against the solution guidelines.)
I was hoping for some help after losing with her twice in round 8. (Yes, I suck at this game. But I haven't had any trouble "surviving" with anyone else.) What are her best moves, etc.?

Much better now after the edit, so I'll change my vote. 
(Took me 4 attempts to get the "survive 10 rounds" achievement in the end. Maya seems to be one of the few fighters where spamming random buttons isn't always enough.)
