  If you need help with this one, keep making combos like crazy. Don´t ever stop to think, if you aren´t going to get a pearl or something better really fast. Explode all pieces you can, and launch every power-up as soon as it comes, so you stop as much as possible the AI.
  
  One helpful tip is to save green power (the one where you steal some space from your enemy). Then, once you use it, explode as fast as you can every special piece it has. This way, you can steal lots of points that can give you the victory.
  
  Just try to be as faster as possible, if you keep making combos and launching attacks to your enemy, you should achieve this after a few tries, not that hard after all...

  This achievement seemed to me like a luck-based fiasco. After something like 70 tries, I finally managed to win, and just barely. Sometimes, the CPU just starts the game with stars and emeralds out of nowhere, leaving you no room to recover.
  First off, bombs make of break a game. Try to use them as frequently as possible, because they are your only hope of easily getting enough energy to be on par with the AI.
  The D-Pad, unfortunately, is too slow to ever be able to make combos on the level this achievemnt requires, so keep this in mind.
  
  After much dedication, you will get this achievement

  There is a lot of luck involved with this one. Most people will fail at this 1/100 times. The game is built that way to prey on the below average puzzle gamers. Which most of us are.
  
  1/25 times the CPU will create an opportunity to possibly win
  1/25 you’ll get lucky to have the correct drops to diffuse the bombs
  1/25 you’ll actually have the skills needed to win
  1/25 times you’ll actually get in position to create a few stars without even trying
  
  With all these combinations of lucky factors prey for a lucky charm to be up your ass by the developers of this game. Good luck and don’t break anything while suffering through this

  What the hell is even this? The AI makes pieces like it's nothing because it gets the better hand by default and even if you are way ahead it launches a bomb you can't defuse and then it moves up 2 bars at a time when your bombs hardly make a dent

  2022 EDIT: I have recently completed hexic 2 again on a dummy and have recorded the run to give you a visual for the kind of pace (and luck!) required. As you can see the victory was extremely narrow!
  
  There are three things you really need to bear in mind whilst attempting this;
  
  1) Combos, combos and A LOT MORE COMBOS as fast as you possibly can (even before the gap from the last combo has been refilled).
  
  2) Keep activating your powers (I honestly just kept spamming "Y" the whole time). The whole "save the green" method to explode the other players pieces never worked for me as the pieces wouldn't give me enough points in time. So I'd recommend using your green power whenever the opportunity arises.
  
  3) Now this is the KEY to succession... DEFUSE EVERY BOMB! If you let more than one bomb detonate then there is little to no chance of you getting the win because of the amount of points the AI will gain. However, if three or so bombs detonate on the AI then there is a good chance you will win as long as you keep the combos coming whilst waiting for the bomb to come back your way. The game I beat the AI on I had detonated probably 4 bombs in a row on them, after getting one detonated on me, but still giving me a 3 bar lead!
  
  Now this achievement may well take you 100+ attempts (like me and a few others) but if you keep at it then it should be yours in no time.
  
  Hope this helps.

  Got it after a few tries. Another important tip is to try to make combos at the BOTTOM of the screen as long as possible. You'll have more chance to get good chains.
  This made the difference for me.

  Mashing Y helped me a lot, thanks for this. Didn't need too many star pieces/emeralds even with this trick.

  This achievement requires you to beat the Expert computer opponent in Battle mode.
  
  This is the hardest achievement in this game, it requires lots of luck and skill as the Expert computer rarely ever makes a move that doesn't result in a combo. Some tips on this difficulty are:
  
  1. You are able to pause the game which can help you study the screen to find crazy combos you can create, although the pause menu screen may be in the way, it is a very useful method. You can even unpause and pause to take a quick look.
  
  2. Create as many starflowers and emeralds as these are better than normal combinations and are able to be used in a situation where the Expert computer has locked a part of your board.
  
  3. If you are behind a lot, you are able to create chains that give more than normal combos and they boost up your meter, although do not use all of your starflowers and emeralds as these are essential when a part of your board is locked up
  
  4. Use attacks smartly, do not use bombs as the Expert computer will defuse them quite quickly and which will result in the bomb moving over to your board. Use the collapse only when you really need it. The best attacks are moving the board to create more space for you and less for the Expert computer and locking the Expert computer's pieces. The more of those two attacks you use, the more likely you are to win the game
  
  5. Don't give up and keep trying as it is tough and unless you are a master at Hexic, you will not do it first try, it will take you a lot of tries, but as you try and try you will get better and better until you can overcome the Expert computer.
