How to unlock the Leaders, Not Followers achievement in Tainted Grail: Conquest - Definitive Guide
This is for gaining a place on the leaderboard when fighting the true final boss of the game. To be able to access this fight, you must first "beat" the game normally by killing all four of the guardians. You will then be told by the goat that to access the real final boss, you must beat the game again, but this time when you kill the guardians, you must take their Wyrdstone Hearts and bring them to the Menhir in the village. If you take all 3 hearts instead of losing a card or getting a passive skill, you can sacrifice them at the Menhir and access the true final boss fight. Even if you lose, as long as you deal at least one point of damage to your enemy, you should place on the leaderboards and earn this achievement. This can be done with any class in the game, so use whichever you make best progress with, or take my opinion that the Summoner is the easiest class to play with and use that.

Whilst I assume this was a bug, and not the proper way to do this as the above guide brilliantly explains, I for some reason got this after the drunken man encounter in the tavern.
I just guarded for all 5 turns, in which the battle automatically ends, and he then loses, and the achievement randomly popped. This during an early run when I haven't even seen the true final boss yet.
Not sure why, but for anyone who is struggling a little to do this the correct way, perhaps this might work for you.

Not sure what's going on... I've fought the final boss and nothing happened. I guess I'll have to try VyseLegend84's method. When I finished the boss it showed my damage next to my name and I can look in the menu at leaderboard and see that I'm listed but still nothing. 🤷♂️
Edit: I fought the final boss a 2nd time and it popped...didn't do anything different so might just be slightly buggy.
