Easiest way to get this is to wait for a Free-For-All King of The Hill game that takes place on a level with a Rocket Launcher.

Get the Rocket Launcher, get a safe distance from the hill, wait until there are 2-3 people fighting each other and blast them. As most people gravitate around the Hill, this gametype is ideal for trying to get this achievement as everyone should frequently be in the same area. And if you are focusing on killing them, instead of getting inside the hill, you will have an advantage there.

Note: be prepared to lose a few games while you try for this. Remember, you should be focused only on getting this achievement, not on winning the match, and you should get it fairly easily.

Good luck!
Blackflame0729 This is also a great way to get the double spartan kill >.<.

d3vilsNight Make sure you try to focus on objective gametypes like King of the Hill, where many people will be converging around one point. That makes it much easier, but still it might take a while to find a KOTH game then actually succeed.

Shadow XBL they really need to put Legendary Brawl back up so people can more easily get this, permanently. Not that the playlists will ever be changed again.
