How to unlock the Face-Off achievement in The Legend of Korra - Definitive Guide
After that, Korra (not sure if Mako or Bolin can be chosen) will step into the center with an opponent, and the center will raise up. Because the middle part of the arena is so small, you must be ready to press or to dodge and counter since it is much easier to get hit. To win, just knock the other guy off the platform the same way you would anyone else not in a face-off.
STRATEGY: Don't even worry about hitting Y to throw attacks. Just wait to counter attack by pressing LT. Easy peasy. And I did this on the 4th round of the 2nd tier (Captain difficult).

Face-Offs happen when you and your opponents are tied in players and in points at the end of the round (meaning you are in the center of the map). Once these two conditionals happen Korra will face off against an opponent in a raised center circle.
This is a winner take all scenario that will determine who gets the round win. DO NOT JUMP! Jumping will open you up to getting knocked out of the arena with a single hit. It is best to simply dodge and unleash the flury of quick attacks to win the battle. This should not be too hard, but remember to dodge and attack until victorious.

Sadly you cannot determine how well your team will play since they are CPU. When you do get the draw and enter a Face-Off, try to knock-out the water bender with counters by pressing at the appropriate timing. Try not to spam your / combos too much, if necessary then dodge his attacks with . After successfully knocking them off the platform you'll unlock the trophy.
