How to Stop the Awakening of Shou-Lao in K'un-Lun in Marvel Rivals
Follow this step-by-step guide to complete the Crouching Threat, Hidden Dragon achievement:
Step 1: Play on K'un-Lun: Heart of Heaven Map
The first step to complete this achievement is to play on the new K'un-Lun map. You can do this in different game modes: Quick Match, Competitive, or the limited-time Heart of Heaven match. Note that this achievement cannot be completed in Custom Match.
Step 2: Play as the Defending Team
Now here’s the tricky part: you need to be on the defending team to complete this achievement. Playing in Quick Match and the limited-time Heart of Heaven match doesn’t guarantee that you’ll be the defender, as team placement is random. So, you’ll need to keep searching until you get a game as the defender.
Step 3: Win the Game as a Defender
Once you’ve joined the game as the defending team, here comes the crucial part: you need to win the match. As the defending team, your task is to stop the attacking team from delivering the Tablet of Iron Fist to the Palace of the Dragon King. Winning the game will prevent them from awakening Shou-Lao.
Step 4: Complete the Achievement
Once you’ve won the match as the defending team, a cutscene will play showing that Doom is behind all of this shenanigans—it’s pretty cool. When you return to the lobby, you’ll see a notification confirming that you’ve completed the Crouching Threat, Hidden Dragon achievement.
While completing this, you can also work on other Heart of Heaven-based achievements:
