Master of All Things (30G)
description: Won With Every Character in an Online Ranked Match.

  • must win a match with every character, including Akuma
  • winning rounds isn’t enough
  • disconnect wins don’t count

Akuma counts.

Akuma was the last character you won with?

Yep, started at the bottom of the roster and worked my way up to him, achievement unlocked after I won a match with him.

Also you do get a win if someone drops on you, I got the 20 wins achievement when I was at 19 wins and got the achievement when someone dropped soon after the 2nd round started.

Same exact thing happened to me on my 20th win. Except when i look at my ranking on the Leaderboard, it says i only have 19 wins. It definitely doesn’t count as a loss when your opponent quits but it doesn’t quite count as a win either.

For Throwing is Cheap, can you do that in a local match or does it have to be arcade?

I’m not sure. I already did it in Arcade Mode. If you haven’t gotten it yet, do me a favor and try it in Local Match.

No. You must get 3 perfect victorys and not lose a match. You can lose a round.

The easiest seven hit combo imho is Deejays cross-up j.MK, c.LP, c.LP, MGU. It requires no timing at all, you just mash jab and go up as soon as you see the second hit.

Actually the combo i used to get the achievement was DeeJay’s crossup j.MK, c.LK xx HK Upkicks, super (two hit juggle). Though it was kinda annoying building meter without hurting the opponent too much.

Does anyone know if there’s a way to pick Akuma in Arcade Mode?

Will do. Don’t have access to the 360 at the moment, but will try it out when I do.

Figured out how to pick Akuma in Arcade Mode. All you have to do is put the cursor on Guile and press Up. Having 2P join in and pick Akuma so you can beat up on him doesn’t count for the achievement though.

So in “Master of all Things” I don’t have to win with super versions of each character as well?

I got it by winning ranked matches with all 17 characters in HD Remix mode. I haven’t played a single match in Classic mode yet.

local match counts too

No .

Yes you can do it in Local Match. That is how I got it. I used Cammys FP throw. She gets 5 throws on the dot for a full bar per round assuming you dont accidently hit the opponent. So 2 rounds would be 10 throws. Done and done.

Could someone elaborate for these moves? For the nubs out there? haha.

Whats a j.D, although i know what crouchin lightpunch is.

j.D+HP means jump then hold Down and press HP aka fierce punch (LB on Xbox360 pad)

c.LP means crouching LP which means hold down and press jab (X on Xbox360 pad)

s.LP means standing LP which means press jab (X on Xbox360 pad)

Gief’s Green Hand is D, DF, F+P

SF Notation Guide

Easiest 7-hit Combo by far:

Dee Jay: Cross-up Forward, Low Jab -> Low Jab XX Machine Gun Upper (mash all three punches).

So dead easy to do.
