How to unlock the Comeback Kid achievement in Ultimate Chicken Horse - Definitive Guide

I was only 50% after completing everything else in the game. This is the easiest and quickest method I found using two controllers. Easy 13 Comeback points in 2:30-3 mins easy. Repeat 4 times, it'll take 12 minutes to unlock max.

The Set-Up

Press cn_start and go to Rules and Modifiers
Game Rules: Change the following
1. Points to Win : 20
2. Length Limit: 15
3. Party Box: Disabled

Back out and go to
Point Settings: Change to Always Award (check mark)
1. Goal
2. Comeback
3. First

Back out and go to
Modifiers: Change the following
1. Multi Jump: Unlimited

Head back to the Treehouse and on the ground you'll find a little chart called
Score Balancer: Change the following
Player 1 (needing comeback trophy) - Hit -10 until 50%

Now select the farm level.

THIS IS IMPORTANT!!!
Use the second controller (not getting achievement) to finish the round FIRST every time! This awards the first bonus.
For the main controller (winning the achievement) purposely DIE by the THRESHER TWO TIMES. You will then see the Underdog title appear below your name. Then finish every time after, making sure to finish after the second controller (you don't want the first point bonus).

With Unlimited Multi Jump its super quick getting to the finish.

When the round ends, just replay farm again. And if you don't want to see the winner dance, exit back to treehouse before finishing, and then replay farm again. Your modifiers will save.

Easy achievement. Hardly a "grind"...

A slight modification I found to make it even faster: Set the point value of comeback to the smallest value, and then set first to 1 (which is in the middle). You'll get the comeback point but it will be reduced so much that it won't actually give you anything. I was able to finish 3-4 times with the second controller to get a large lead, then rubber band it to fall into the thresher every time and just finish the level over and over with the primary. I was getting so few points that I was always getting solo for a very small amount and no comeback.

Best way to do this is at the local couch but with just 2 controllers. Set the score limit to 20 and the round limit to 50 and turn off the double traps(so you don't have to set 4 traps each round). Then just score twice in a row with the guest while killing the player 1. This makes player 1 the underdog. Then just kill the guest and score with player 1 to snag 1 comeback point. Rinse and repeat and you get 9 comeback points when the game is over. I found this to be a grind as iFlyHi mentioned however it is not as grindy as his method because you don't have to keep starting the game over as much. You get 9 comeback points in around 3-5 minutes of playing this way. Always make sure player 1 is getting the comeback points(not the guest).

Highly recommend under Party Mode in the menu to put PARTY BOX to AUTO PICK and DOUBLE PARTY BOX to OFF - Goes much faster this way.

Also, if you adjust the amount of points you score for each goal and comeback down to the lowest you can get more comebacks per score

@Grego and @pseudoidol Those are new additions to the game, sweet. You couldn't do those things back in October of 2018. I want to say you could select the auto pick but when you do that, isn't it easier to place blocks where you want them to be?

You can use the shared controller couch to add 4 players with a single controller. Then you can just do the above method with two more characters. Just finish the level twice with just one character, and then kill that one once the other three become underdogs. You'll get credit for three at a time instead of one

I'm really good at this game so this was the last achievement I unlocked (atleast the non-glitched ones). This is the fastest way there is to possible get this achievement.
1. Start a normal game and add 4 players to the shared controller couch.
2. Choose the map "farm"
3. There should be 4 players here now make one of them finish and kill the rest of them, you should get a goal and a solo point from this. Now do this again and one of the players should be ahead of every other player.
4. A purple "underdog" will appear under all of the players who don't have any points.
5. Kill the player in the lead and make the "underdogs" finish the level.
6. Press cn_start and end the game after the underdog points have been rewarded
7. Just repeat these steps over and over, this is a little bit of a grind.

Just to add to this solution, make sure if you're doing this method, that whatever account you're trying to get the achievement on is one of the underdogs getting the comeback points. For a lot of this games achievements, (like all the ones based around getting killed by this or that) guest accounts will count towards the achievements, but this achievement and the solo one only counts for the main account.

So you can't get 3 at a time, just the 1. Learned that the hard way.

To score a comeback point, a character must get labeled with Underdog status after a round. Then, if the character reaches the goal next round, they'll get a comeback point. To get Underdog status, that character must be in last place by a decent margin, and must not have reached the goal in at least 2 rounds. This may seem like a pain, but even though it is unlikely to happen often naturally, there's a relatively easy way to farm it (along with "Solo Master"):

Statt up a four player local shared controller game on Farm in Creative game type. Set the game rules to the maximum number of rounds, and the maximum points to win. Now follow these steps:

  1. Round 1 - Player 1 places a long flat board leading to the flag to make it very easy to jump across to the goal. The rest of the players place stuff out of the way (alternatively, they can place coins to work on "Greedy McGreedster"). Player one reaches the goal and the other three players kill themselves on the machine. This gives Player 1 a solo point.
  2. Round 2 - all players place stuff out of the way (and do this every round from now on). Player 1 reaches the goal and all other players kill themselves. Player 1 will get a solo point and all other players will get Underdog status.
  3. Round 3 - Player 2 reaches the goal and all other players kill themselves. Player 2 gets a solo point and a comeback point.
  4. Round 4 - Player 3 reaches the goal and all other players kill themselves. Player 3 gets a solo point and a comeback point.
  5. Round 5 - Player 4 reaches the goal and all other players kill themselves. Player 4 gets a solo point and a comeback point.
  6. Round 6 - Player 1 reaches the goal and all other players kill themselves. Player 1 gets a solo point and Players 2 and 3 get Underdog status. Revert to Step 3 and repeat until the game ends.

If you're going to collect coins, only do it with Player 1. It's important that the other three players always have the same score so they're always tied for last place, meaning all three are qualified for Underdog status. The other players can die with coins to work on "Droppin' Bills" instead.

You play with 1 gamepad with three characters. The limit on points and rounds is maximum. Convenient to combine with scoring solo points.

The first character wins 2 times in a row solo. The remaining two get the "outsider".
The second character wins 1 time solo.
The third character wins 1 time solo.

Then all the characters will receive the “outsider” one by one, so you won’t get confused.

For one game with a 20 point limit to win (maximum) you will receive 24 cash back points.

You can reach all 3 points and get 3 outsiders per round, you also need not to earn 50 points, but to get 50 points, so you can put the minimum number of points and get a trophy on 5 points
