How to unlock the World Champion achievement in STREET FIGHTER IV - Definitive Guide

When starting up an arcade game, you will have to move the difficulty all the way to the right until you reach "Hardest." From here, it's all up to you. Things to note.

-The time limit and round limit is entirely up to you. So, if you want one-30-second-round-to-win matches, that's good.
-You can continue if you lose, so don't worry about anything if you happen to get beat up a lot.

Unfortunately, I can't comment about how difficult this achievement is because there is a super-cheap way to get this which I decided to use. This will make things a lot easier for those who want the achievement but aren't exactly pros at the game.
Start up Arcade mode on the Hardest difficulty with 1 round to win, and 30 second rounds. When you choose a fighter, stick with Zangief. Zangief is a pretty powerful character to begin with, but if you press LP+MP+HP at the same time (LB with default controls) he does a spinning liarat move that makes the computer act stupid. He also has a faster version of this (albiet weaker) by pressing LK+MK+HK (LT) at the same time.
This move is pretty cheap since he does a good deal of damage on enemies and it also knocks them down. When they start getting up, press LB again and repeat the whole process. Now, if you're doing this method you will have to keep on defense since you won't always K.O. your opponents. Their revenge meters will fill up and they will use those moves in a heart beat. I'd say stick to three LB presses and then block for a bit, then repeat.
Seth mighty pose a problem, but for him it's all about dishing out whatever damage you can right away and then blocking like a madman until time runs out.

Using this method, you should be able to get this achievement in no time. This method also works for the Arcade Rat and Save Your Quarters achievements (beating medium, and beating medium w/o continuing).

1 Thing I found with Seth, when he turns dark blue and sucks you toward him, if you time it right while using Zangief, you can throw him. I found that worked for me, and lead to me defeating him.

Oh, man, I feel like a chump because I don't deserve this achievement at all! But Zangief's Lariat is too irresistible.

lol 3 seconds left on the clock and Seth was doing his ultra move while both our health bars were at about 50%. During his finish move the timer ran out and I had slightly more health.

Got both "World Champion" and "Save your Quarters" at the first try. Thanks !

I suck at Street Fighter but am a competent Tekken player. I got this achievement first try, 0 continues. Handled Seth just like you said.

Land at least 3 LB moves, and block to run the timer out. Or time the attack again if you can. Use you intuition, it's not automatic but this method sure as shit works. Thank you.

Bet 1 round and the Zangief character, press the key endlessly , opponents will attack you, but lariat zangief, penetrates any attacks. Be careful with M.Bison, Cammy and Seth!
