Achievement: God of the Arena (Alternative Route)

Being a Butterlord can sometimes be very exhausting. King Derthert is besieging your beloved city again? Your dumb villagers are being raided by stinky Monchug? Rhagae doesn't want to hang out with you anymore? AND you're trying to do a 100% achievement run on top of all those responsibilities??

Well I'm here to save you some time. In the beginning fighting in tournaments may be a good start to get money, hoes, renown and some whack armor. But eventually you got no more time for that and instead are busy fighting huge battles, sacrificing all your tier 6 units. The fact that the other lords just keep winning those tournaments over the years passing, makes it even harder to get on #1. So what if there was an alternative to pass those suckers?

Well there is! The idea came by a reddit user called u/HunterBiscuit who asked if it was possible to just kill the others so that he could climb the ladder of gladiators. Nobody really tried that though and that's why I am here for. I conducted thorough research in the video below:

Pro Tip: Try Dodging
And came to the conclusion: YES it is possible!
So I highly suggest to give it a watch and try it yourself.
(Only Warning: the achievement didn't unlock in my case, perhaps because of mods or since I haven't reached #1 by actually winning tournaments. So if you got the same issue, try getting to #2 and winning the first place the fair way.)

Good Luck My Friends!
