    This achievement is for completing five placement matches on a game mode in Versus - Ranked Play

    To earn this achievement, you must do the following:

    1) Select Versus.
    2) Select Ranked.
    3 Play all five placement matches on either King of the Hill, Team Deathmatch, Escalation or 2v2 Gnashers.

    It does not matter whether you win or lose your placement matches.

    Note: Five placement matches must be played upon first selecting a versus game mode. Once the placement matches have been played you will be placed into a tier dependant on how well you did.

    I had an issue with the achievement not popping and upon quitting the game and reloading it back up, I was able to obtain it.

    This achievement is glitchy and might not unlock as it should even though you’ve completed the placement matches and have gotten your ranking.

    It seems to not unlock as you complete it, but rather the next time you connect to the versus online services. If it glitches for you and you want to force it to pop, try to:

    - quit out of the game completely
    - start the game up again
    - choose the “Versus” menu option

    It should pop right as the game reconnects to the online services. YMMV though.

    This tip was mentioned by many in the comments to the other solution, for example by Uh0h its Renaud , Milkysoul , FLYorDIE21 among others.
