How to unlock the You Found Me! achievement

    Hey all, after about 4 hours of trying the above solutions (Scorpion, Sheeva, Sektor, etc) and Shang Tsung just absolutely hating me for it, I found an alternative method that worked for me.

    So you've made it to Shang Tsung, probably already lost some rounds by now, and you know how to make it back to the Player Select screen. And maybe, if you are like me, it shows that you've already lost 4 rounds. If that sounds like you, try selecting Mustard.... I mean Cyrax.

    After about 5 attempts I got the double flawless with him. At the very beginning of the match, go for a Fwd Jump Punch, more than likely you'll jump over Tsung attempting to do a move. Attack him from the back with Y, Y. After that proceed to get into a rhythm of Fwd Jump Punch, Y, Y (The last Y will make his Saw come out). I found that it helps if you do the punch later in the jump.
    As for the Fatality, I just used his default one at Touching Distance...I think it's hard to mess up at touching distance, but personally, sweeping distance is not my friend.

    Anyways, I hope this method helps you all. It also works slightly on Jade, you may need to throw in a few other tricks against her though. For losing a round you get 1000, for winning a round you get 5000.

    BrutalGuitarThis worked great. Thumbs up from me. Took me a few tries since Shang Tsung is so cheap and can attack out of nowhere sometimes. I even beat Jade too. smile

    xCENAxMODworked after a couple tries, don't need to perform a fatality on Shang Tsung if you did enough before him

    PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS, PEOPLE HAVE COFERMINED A NEW WAY TO FIGHT SHANG.

    The real requierements as I found on the realeased site of mk

    A minimum of 2 rounds is required.
    Round time and difficulty settings do not matter.
    You can’t lose a single match.
    At least 3 Fatalities must be performed before reaching Goro/Kintaro. This means a Fatality is NOT required on Shang Tsung if you have done at least 3 before reaching him. Stage Fatalities count.
    At least 5 Flawless Victories must be achieved before reaching Goro/Kintaro. This means at least 3 Flawless Victories must be achieved before Shang Tsung in addition to the 2 that will be required on him (below). It’s also possible to get all 5 on Shang Tsung by using the retry trick (see notes).
    You must get 2 Flawless Victories on Shang Tsung without losing a round.
    Notes:

    You may re-select your fighter without penalty when it asks you to “Finish Him/Her!” (meaning you have to win). In doing so, you will fight your opponent again without a loss of rounds or matches. This is particularly useful against Shang Tsung. Selecting a different fighter between retries is allowed.
    If a match results in a retry, all Flawless Victories achieved during that match will still count towards your total, including that of the final round.
    While you aren’t allowed to lose a round to Shang Tsung, you can lose a round to anyone before him.

    MutionJust to confirm you can't get flawless, then lose, then get flawless on 3rd round, it won't count

    QulltonI'm surprised there's been no mention of the Sheeva glitch. Expert mode. Throw, after the first punch during the throw, hold block, and spam her jump stomp. He just lays there for a few seconds while you knock out all his health. Hardest part is landing the throw of both rounds before he gets a hit on you. Hope this helps others as it did me.

    EriCO OwNz NuBzMake sure to get your 3 flawless victories and your 3 fatalities done by your third match if possible. I used the scorpion spear + throw, wait 1-1.5 seconds between the spear and the throw. As Shang is being thrown to the ground spam the back key on the D pad and hit X to spear just before he gets up. If you get lucky enough and get the timing right you'll spear him without being hit. If he blocks or performs a breaker keep spamming the spear. If you get tagged, your primary focus needs to be surviving and giving yourself as many attempts as possible. Use your X rays when needed, if you do lose a match, use the opportunity to try a different character or strategy before attempting to go up the ladder again.

    This secret achievement is called "You Found Me!" and is unlocked by fighting against Classic Jade in the Arcade Ladder. Below, I'll tell you the requirements needed to fight Classic Jade, and some strategies which can be used to make it easier to unlock this achievement.

    First, you'll want to have the right settings in place. Go to options, and change Number of Rounds to 2. You can choose whatever Time Limit and Difficulty you like. I recommend Beginner difficulty for obvious reasons.

    To get to the Classic Jade fight, you have to get through the Arcade ladder, all the way past the Shang Tsung fight, while meeting a number of stipulations. These are:

    * You must have the Number of Rounds set to 2.
    * You must attain 5 Flawless Victories, including a Double Flawless Victory against Shang Tsung.
    * You must perform 3 Fatalities, including a Fatality on Shang Tsung. Stage Fatalities can be used, but Babalities will not count.
    * You cannot lose a match. You may lose rounds, however.

    Note: IV TRELON VI says: I don't think you need 5 flawless victories. Just a flawless on Shang. ~ Thanks, IV TRELON VI.

    This may seem daunting at first, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. If Shang Tsung gets a hit on you while you're going for the Double Flawless (and trust me, he will, many times), then fear not, because you can win both rounds, getting to the "Finish Him" screen. Pause when you see "Finish Him", and go to character select. Choose your character and try again, the game will keep your record thus far intact.

    When you get through all this correctly, right after the Shang Tsung fight there will be a loading screen for Goro's Lair. You will fight against Classic Jade. You don't have to beat her, only let the fight run until the achievement pops. This takes about 5 seconds.

    Interesting side note: Classic Jade seems to have a constant invulnerability to projectiles, similar to the move Jade uses where she flashes green, any projectiles go through Classic Jade, buffed or not.

    Okay, next, onto strategies. There have been a few methods described in other guides, both here and on other sites. I'll run through those first, giving positives and negatives of each strategy, just so all the information you need is in one place. My strategy may not fit your fighting style, one of these may work better for you:


    Sheeva
    (Up Down attack, followed by uppercut or sweep, uppercut)

    This is the strategy I thought would work for me. Sheeva, although slow, hits very hard, and her up, down attack is hard to dodge. I regard Sheeva to be the character I play best with, I'd rate myself 4/10 as a player, but with Sheeva I got the 10 Online Ranked Wins achievement legit. I tried for nearly 2 hours to get this using Sheeva, to no avail. She always gets caught out while in the air. Shang Tsung shoots fire up, which always catches you off-screen. It has also been mentioned that you can use the up, down attack, followed by a grab, which leaves Shang Tsung stuck on the floor, making this easy. While it's true this happens, I would estimate that it works around once every 10-12 throws. This is not ideal as Shang Tsung can sneak a hit in while you're messing around trying to get him on the floor. Moving on...


    Scorpion
    (Down, Back, A attack followed by uppercut, or jump punch then uppercut combo)

    Scorpion is quite fast, and hits hard. The down, back, A attack where Scorpion goes off screen and hits from the other side fails dramatically. Shang Tsung will block this 90% of the time, and get a hit on you 50% of the time. The jump punch, then uppercut combo was more effective, I got a few Flawless Victories in the half an hour or so that I tried this, but couldn't get a Double Flawless.


    Okay, I'm suprised this hasn't been posted yet, but my strategy may help out some people still struggling with this. Firstly, choose Sheeva, and up, down, uppercut your way through the first seven kombatants, picking up Flawless Victories and Fatalities along the way. Then, beat Shang Tsung down and get to the "Finish Him" screen, and change character to...


    Stryker
    (Back, Forward, X)

    Stryker's gun is a brilliant way to beat this. Make sure you start the fight crouched, and uppercut Shang Tsung to get him away from you. This may take a few tries. Then proceed to fire away over and over, make sure you're quick inbetween fires, so he can't sneak a fireball at you. With some patience and speed, you should be able to beat him. With Stryker I needed less than 10 tries, after all the frustration of trying with others.

    Something else worth mentioning, depending on the fighter you choose, Shang Tsung seems to transform into characters designed to capitalise on your moments of weakness. If you choose Sheeva for example, he transforms into either Quan Chi, who teleports on top of you, or Baraka, who has a spinning attack which counters the up, down move. With Stryker, he transforms into Jade a lot, who can become invulnerable to the gun. If this happens, put it down to bad luck and try again.

    Thanks to anyone who has managed to read this far without getting too bored, I hope this hasn't been too long winded, I just wanted to cover all the bases. If there is anything I've missed, or could add to make this a better solution, please feel free to comment or suggest, I'll add it in and give you credit. I don't just accept constructive critisism, I welcome it.

    Good luck, fellow kombatants.

    T IR E L O NGood guide. But I don't think you need 5 flawless victories. Just a flawless on Shang.

    Quicker Feet+100 you sir are a genius, I flawless-ed Shang Tsung on my third try with Stryker, but I guess I didn't do 5 flawless victories so i didn't get it and I almost cried, but anyway, great guide and thank you.

    SettlingCrib503This is the best guide here. I’m really good with Liu Kang so none of the methods were anything I needed to complete this. I couldn’t for the life of me figure out what I needed to do and listing out all the steps at the very beginning was appreciated. I also didn’t know you could cheese this by resetting at the finish screen, I always just assumed that you would get a match loss regardless.
