Let's start a trend.

Maybe this came up elsewhere, but tbh I didn't look it up.
So the idea is: if I don't attack you (I'm talking Ranked mode), that means I'm trying to do some silly achievements, so please try not to attack me. :)

This seems jolly optimistic but sure, if I encounter someone who is clearly not attacking me, then I'll let them get on with whatever they're doing. I don't anticipate this ever actually coming up but hey, a few people have humored me in the past while I messed around so I'll pay it forward.
I wonder how cruel it would be if they just play along and just when you're about to finish up your achievement goals he just concedes.
Pretty cruel.
The signal could be anything else, like spamming 'Ooops' 3 times in the beginning which otherwise makes no sense.
I just hope some of my future opponents read this. :D

I can get behind this - I have been spamming sub-optimal decks all week just to check off some of the XP rewarding quests. Have not moved beyond Diamond 5, 2 stars. You're welcome, people trying to climb to Legend.
IF we could do our achievements in Casual, I´d be all in for this. But don´t make me not attack you in Ranked, when it´s all about competition. You can do silly things there, sure, but don´t expect others to co-op. I´m doing my achievements in Duels ( if I don´t own specific card or legendary) or on Rank floors (if I do), where I don´t mind loosing with stupid deck build around a card for achievement. I can´t expect my opponent to play along, I just let him have his win, sometimes I´m lucky enough to win myself and make some achievement progression. I even accidentally hit Rank D10 with my silly Darkmoon Tonk deck and completed the achievement.

If you don't care about your Wild rank, just do the XP achievements there.
I understand that Ranked is about competition, but for most of the achievements you don't even have to win. So I'm more than happy to finish the achievement and then concede to give you the win. Where you have to win (eg. Yogg, C'thun achievements) this does not apply of course.
I just completed the C'thun achievement. It was a grind. I specifically made a Priest deck for it, with draws, heals, and board clears. None of my opponents got the idea, even though I never attacked face and even healed their face to clean up accidental damage. Finally I found a Priest with the similar idea, I think he knew what was going on, but I was the luckier person.

Decks are so strong in Wild I think you have less chance to do any achievements there

I'm doing the fucking Greybough achievement at the moment. Please if you read this, and you encounter me on ladder (inf3rno#2564) and I don't attack you, don't attack me. And don't concede. Thx :D

Actually, it is easier to achieve in Wild as Standard is aggro mostly now

This is gonna take a lifetime. In most cases I don't even draw the Greybough, but even if I do, I'm dead by then. Or when can finally drop some of them, the opponent just concedes. Fuck you Blizzard. :D

I play mostly meme decks and have a lot of experience with this concept. What you want to do is telegraph your play to get your opponent to play along. You can do this by 'flashing' cards in your hand. Whenever your opponent's mous goes over a card, hero, deck, minion, or hero power it gets highlighted. So just make that red border flash a few times and leave your mous on the card in your hand or minion on the board you want and your opponent will take notice. The first thing that will cross their mind is that you have lethal. The second thing they will think is that you are trying to do some dumb or elaborate combo. If you are already playing non-aggro off-meta cards then they won't be afraid of lethal and they might play along. You can also try the top emotes to telegraph what you are doing ( Thank you and Wow) at the appropriate times.
I'm already trying all the things you mentioned. Nothing seems to work. :D

Managed to do it in a couple hours in Wild. I had a game where I literally summoned 100+ of them against Big Priest.

I have only 'YoggChamp' left out of all Darkmoon achievements to complete. So if you encounter a Paladin with a secret up (which is most likely Oh My Yogg!) and either player is close to death, please cast a spell before the killing blow or the concede so there is a chance this fucking achievement triggers. :D
Pretty please.

So if anyone was wondering, I did the math on Oh My Yogg! chances to deal lethal damage for each mana category. These values assume that both heroes are within range of the randomly generated spell, and there are no minions on board (these conditions maximize the chance of success).
Also assuming that if the Paladin hero dies, it also counts for the YoggChamp achievement. If that is not the case, then most of these percentage values should be cut by half.
0 : 1/22 = 4.545% - Raise Dead (only the casting hero's health matters)
1 : 5/97 = 5.155% - Arcane Shot, Rapid Fire, Lightning Bolt, Rain of Fire, Soulfire
2 : 4/91 = 4.396% - Frostbolt, Eviscerate, Shiv, Nether Breath
3 : 4/68 = 5.882% - Kill Command, Lava Burst, Molten Blast, Serpentshrine Portal
4 : 6/44 = 13.636% - Scrap Shot, Fireball, Hammer of Wrath, Dunk Tank, Hellfire, Mortal Strike
5 : 3/56 = 5.357% - Apexis Blast, Holy Wrath (should only use cards with 1+ mana cost), Bane of Doom
6 : 1/17 = 5.882% - Starfire
7 : 0/10 = 0%
8 : 0/14 = 0%
9 : 0/3 = 0%
10: 1/7 = 14.286% - Pyroblast
So the best way to do this achievement is: try to queue up with a buddy at the very same time in Ranked, put both heroes to 10- health while keeping the board clear, cast Oh My Yogg!, wait for the opponent to cast a 10 mana spell (preferably as a Mage, as Mages have the most 10 mana spells (2) so it's easier to draw them) and pray to Yogg. Repeat if failed.
If anyone is up for this shit, feel free to add me. Always an optimist.

Honestly, if you could guarantee playing against a friend on ladder (very tricky btw, since you need a similar MMR, and be on the same server), then I'd try using Lorewalker Cho to keep passing around Oh My Yogg! and a 0-cost spell, e.g. a coin. Eventually you'll land on Raise Dead. It might need a few backup Chos in case of Silence.
If you are on EU I'm happy to try this with you (it is the last difficult achievement for me too), but otherwise all I can say is good luck while I quietly put the secret in every Paladin deck for the next year in case I ever manage it.
Edit: I just saw your BattleTag. I can add you later. We can try to arrange something via private messages :)
Yeah let's try this. We could try your way as well. In the meantime, I'm also putting the secret in every Paladin deck. The problem is, when I know my opponent is gonna cast a key spell, I'm always like "oh man, should i play it now or rather wait for the perfect opportunity for the achievement which will occur around 0.000001% of the time".

We actually managed to do it. Took only 4 tries to queue into each other, and from then with clever deckbuilding and careful gameplay, it was actually a piece of cake. And as a bonus, it was a TON of fun.
Thanks mate.

No no. Thank YOU!
I literally just detailed the process for others to follow if they want in the general achievement hunting thread: https://outof.cards/forums/hearthstone/hearthstone-general/6756-achievement-tipsstrategies-sharing
