How to unlock the Tongue Twister achievement in Left 4 Dead - Definitive Guide
this is tricky because you have a very short window of time to kill the smoker before you lose control of your character. if you see the tongue come at you from head on, just shoot in that general direction. if you are grabbed from behind, hit the 180 button and youll have less than a second to get some rounds off.
Tongue Twister - 20G (Original Achievement)
Difficulty: 2/10
This isn't hard to do but it can take a bit of practice. You don't have to, but I suggest having a friend come along and stick by you. Wait for a Smoker to show up and look directly at it. Once you see its tongue latch onto you, blow it away with your weapon, preferably the Automatic Shotgun. If you fail and it constricts you, have your friend melee it to free you, and try again.

Start a No Mercy campaign on easy and begin in the Apartments. Once you get outside, there should be at least one Smoker waiting for the Survivors. The second you are grabbed by a Smoker is the only time you can free yourself by shooting him. Smokers have a green mist that follows them around, so they can easily be spotted. Just watch him until he shoots his tongue at you, then shoot him immediately.
