*An easy way of getting the achievement was to, during any match with [[Energy Sword]]s, grab an Energy Sword, get on top of a high structure, and jump and surprise the large battles on the ground floor.

It was possible to unlock two achievements at once. If a Triple Kill is accomplished with a Sword, the player would unlock both the Triple Kill and [[Steppin' Razor]] achievements, and if a fourth player was killed, the [[Overkill (achievement)|Overkill]] achievement could also be obtained.
