Achievement #45: Justice
Criteria: Defeat Kano with Sonya Blade or Jax
Tier: Bronze
How to unlock: This requires you to deliver the finishing blow to Kano in a match using Sonya Blade or Jax only. Any tier of card is acceptable so even if you don’t have the gold cards, the silver cards would suffice. It is recommended to attempt this in battle mode as the opponent teams are fixed in most of the towers which makes it easier for you to plan your team.
An easy tower to do this is the 5th tower in battle mode where you are forced to use Demolition Sonya Blade and have to defeat the Kano boss at the end of the tower. Ensure that Sonya delivers the killing blow in the boss battle and the achievement will unlock.
Achievement #46: I’m Not a Doctor but…
Criteria: Perform an X-Ray attack
Tier: Bronze
How to unlock: This requires you to perform an X-Ray attack of a gold character card that is actually on your team. Using an ally’s X-Ray attack does not count. The X-Ray attack is the most powerful attack of a gold card and is available only when the card reaches level 20.
For the most part you have to use cards that provide 1 or 1.5 bars of power at the start like Hellspawn Scorpion, Shaolin Kung Jin, Mournful Kitana, Revenant Kung Lao or Balanced Kenshi. Also, with the introduction of epic equipment like the Wrath Hammer, Bloody Tomahawk and Devastator which provide 1 bar of starting power, these can make things easier.
As of now only the following cards in the game can start off with a full 3 bars of power if teamed with the right cards. Among the gold cards, Master Of Souls Ermac, Inferno Scorpion, Klassic Scorpion, Dark Emperor Liu Kang, Kobu Jutsu Tanya and Spec Ops Scorpion. All 4 diamond cards can start with an X-Ray due to the fact that they can equip an additional equipment to give an extra bar.
While the above cards and/or equipment makes things a lot easier, there are other alternative methods if you do not have the above mentioned cards in your collection.
You can use the Monk bronze card as a bait card on your team as his passive provides teammates 1 bar of power on being knocked out. Send him in early and allow him to die which will give your designated character 1 bar of power. If you at least have a character waiting with 2 bars to start off, that character will have an X-Ray once Monk dies.
Another alternative is to use Bojutsu Kung Jin who can build power through attacking and also while blocking enemy attacks too. Have him use one of the epic weapons that provide a bar and team him up with Hellspawn Scorpion or Shaolin Kung Jin to have him start with 2 or 2.5 bars of power. Once he is able to build up full 3 bars of power, immediately trigger the X-Ray attack.
Irrespective of which character is used, once you initiate the X-Ray attack in a match, the achievement will unlock.
Achievement #47: Only Child
Criteria: Perform Cassie’s X-Ray attack on her father
Tier: Silver (also a secret achievement)
How to unlock: This requires you to perform Cassie Cage’s X-Ray attack on Johnny Cage. The easiest way to unlock this is to play battle mode and select a match which has Johnny Cage in the opponent team. The second battle in tower #22 has Johnny Cage on the opponent team and is an ideal battle to attempt this achievement.
Ensure that you choose Covert Ops Cassie Cage as your ally for this battle and summon her when the AI sends Johnny Cage to fight against you. If timed correctly, the achievement will unlock when Cassie does her X-Ray attack.
Achievement #48: That’s a Whole Lot of Cocky
Criteria: Win using a team of Cassie Cage, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: Self-explanatory. You are required to win a match using Cassie Cage, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade. As long as you have all 3 character cards in your collection, you can attempt this. All 3 cards need not be the same tier and can be a mix of silver and gold cards depending on whatever tier of card is available in your deck. Once you win a match with this card team, the achievement will unlock.
An alternative to this is if you don't happen to have any Sonya Blade card in your collection but have Cassie Cage and Johnny Cage is to play the 5th tower in battle mode. You are forced to use Demolition Sonya Blade so team her with Cassie Cage and Johnny Cage and win the first match in the tower to unlock the achievement.
Achievement #49: Sanctimonious Sect
Criteria: Win using a team of Quan Chi, Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: Self-explanatory. You are required to win a match using Quan Chi, Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah. This can take a while to unlock due to the fact that while Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah can be obtained easily, Quan Chi is a gold only card and is quite difficult to obtain. He is a rare drop from the Kombat Pack and is also available in the Netherrealm Pack as of the 1.3.0 update which requires 850 souls to buy.
An alternative to this is if you don't happen to have Quan Chi in your collection but have D'Vorah and Kotal Kahn is to play the 19th tower in battle mode. You are forced to use Warlock Quan Chi so team him with D'Vorah and Kotal Kahn and win the first match in the tower to unlock the achievement.
Achievement #50: Plagues Of Outworld
Criteria: Cause Bleed, Poison and Burning to a single opponent simultaneously during a match
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: This achievement requires you to inflict poison, bleed and burn on a single character and all 3 debuffs must be in effect together for the achievement to unlock. The easiest battle to attempt this is the Kotal Kahn boss battle in tower #33 of battle mode.
You are forced to use Venomous D’Vorah on your team anyways so the poison is taken care of automatically. You need to team her with 2 other cards that are able to cause bleed and burn through their special attacks. Tag-in effects/equipment perks will not unlock the achievement so Possessed Kenshi, Assassin Kitana and Ravenous Mileena cannot be used nor will using gear like Blaze's Life Force which causes burn at the start of the match help. The following cards listed below provide bleed and burn effects through special 1 or special 2 attacks.
Bleed
Special 1 - Klassic Scorpion (if dealing 80%+ damage), Dark Lord Kotal Kahn, Slasher Jason Voorhees
Special 2 - Silver Kano, Cutthroat Kano, Piercing Mileena, Shaolin Master Kung Lao, Shaolin Kung Jin, Hellspawn Scorpion, Cyrax Triborg, Relentless Jason Voorhees, Slasher Jason Voorhees
Burn
Special 1 - Hellspawn Scorpion, Klassic Liu Kang
Special 2 - Kold War Scorpion (if dealing 80%+ damage), Demolition Sonya Blade, Flaming Fists Liu Kang, Injustice Scorpion, Bojutsu Kung Jin, Klassic Scorpion, Cybernetic Jacqui Briggs, Klassic Kano, Sektor Triborg
Ensure that the specials are maxed out to have the effect for the longest possible time and beware of Kotal Kahn’s totems when attempting this. Its best to leave the Poison effect for last as the mandatory D'Vorah character for the battle doesn't have her special attacks fully maxed out so it might not last very long if done first or second. Ensure that all 3 debuff attacks are readily available to trigger and do them in quick succession tagging in a teammate as soon as a debuff has been inflicted.
Once you have inflicted all 3 debuffs and they are all taking effect together, the achievement will unlock.
Assuming that you have followed this guide, you should have all 50 achievements unlocked to have 100% achievement completion in Mortal Kombat X mobile.

GAMEPLAY
The below achievements require you to fulfill specific gameplay conditions in battle to be able to unlock them. These can be achieved in either battle mode or faction wars and would require specific cards to be able to unlock them, so ensure that you have the required cards in your collection before attempting these.
Achievement #45: Justice
Criteria: Defeat Kano with Sonya Blade or Jax
Tier: Bronze
How to unlock: This requires you to deliver the finishing blow to Kano in a match using Sonya Blade or Jax only. Any tier of card is acceptable so even if you don’t have the gold cards, the silver cards would suffice. It is recommended to attempt this in battle mode as the opponent teams are fixed in most of the towers which makes it easier for you to plan your team.
An easy tower to do this is the 5th tower in battle mode where you are forced to use Demolition Sonya Blade and have to defeat the Kano boss at the end of the tower. Ensure that Sonya delivers the killing blow in the boss battle and the achievement will unlock.
Achievement #46: I’m Not a Doctor but…
Criteria: Perform an X-Ray attack
Tier: Bronze
How to unlock: This requires you to perform an X-Ray attack of a gold character card that is actually on your team. Using an ally’s X-Ray attack does not count. The X-Ray attack is the most powerful attack of a gold card and is available only when the card reaches level 20.
For the most part you have to use cards that provide 1 or 1.5 bars of power at the start like Hellspawn Scorpion, Shaolin Kung Jin, Mournful Kitana, Revenant Kung Lao or Balanced Kenshi. Also, with the introduction of epic equipment like the Wrath Hammer, Bloody Tomahawk and Devastator which provide 1 bar of starting power, these can make things easier.
As of now only the following cards in the game can start off with a full 3 bars of power if teamed with the right cards. Among the gold cards, Master Of Souls Ermac, Inferno Scorpion, Klassic Scorpion, Dark Emperor Liu Kang, Kobu Jutsu Tanya and Spec Ops Scorpion. All 4 diamond cards can start with an X-Ray due to the fact that they can equip an additional equipment to give an extra bar.
While the above cards and/or equipment makes things a lot easier, there are other alternative methods if you do not have the above mentioned cards in your collection.
You can use the Monk bronze card as a bait card on your team as his passive provides teammates 1 bar of power on being knocked out. Send him in early and allow him to die which will give your designated character 1 bar of power. If you at least have a character waiting with 2 bars to start off, that character will have an X-Ray once Monk dies.
Another alternative is to use Bojutsu Kung Jin who can build power through attacking and also while blocking enemy attacks too. Have him use one of the epic weapons that provide a bar and team him up with Hellspawn Scorpion or Shaolin Kung Jin to have him start with 2 or 2.5 bars of power. Once he is able to build up full 3 bars of power, immediately trigger the X-Ray attack.
Irrespective of which character is used, once you initiate the X-Ray attack in a match, the achievement will unlock.
Achievement #47: Only Child
Criteria: Perform Cassie’s X-Ray attack on her father
Tier: Silver (also a secret achievement)
How to unlock: This requires you to perform Cassie Cage’s X-Ray attack on Johnny Cage. The easiest way to unlock this is to play battle mode and select a match which has Johnny Cage in the opponent team. The second battle in tower #22 has Johnny Cage on the opponent team and is an ideal battle to attempt this achievement.
Ensure that you choose Covert Ops Cassie Cage as your ally for this battle and summon her when the AI sends Johnny Cage to fight against you. If timed correctly, the achievement will unlock when Cassie does her X-Ray attack.
Achievement #48: That’s a Whole Lot of Cocky
Criteria: Win using a team of Cassie Cage, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: Self-explanatory. You are required to win a match using Cassie Cage, Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade. As long as you have all 3 character cards in your collection, you can attempt this. All 3 cards need not be the same tier and can be a mix of silver and gold cards depending on whatever tier of card is available in your deck. Once you win a match with this card team, the achievement will unlock.
An alternative to this is if you don't happen to have any Sonya Blade card in your collection but have Cassie Cage and Johnny Cage is to play the 5th tower in battle mode. You are forced to use Demolition Sonya Blade so team her with Cassie Cage and Johnny Cage and win the first match in the tower to unlock the achievement.
Achievement #49: Sanctimonious Sect
Criteria: Win using a team of Quan Chi, Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: Self-explanatory. You are required to win a match using Quan Chi, Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah. This can take a while to unlock due to the fact that while Kotal Kahn and D’Vorah can be obtained easily, Quan Chi is a gold only card and is quite difficult to obtain. He is a rare drop from the Kombat Pack and is also available in the Netherrealm Pack as of the 1.3.0 update which requires 850 souls to buy.
An alternative to this is if you don't happen to have Quan Chi in your collection but have D'Vorah and Kotal Kahn is to play the 19th tower in battle mode. You are forced to use Warlock Quan Chi so team him with D'Vorah and Kotal Kahn and win the first match in the tower to unlock the achievement.
Achievement #50: Plagues Of Outworld
Criteria: Cause Bleed, Poison and Burning to a single opponent simultaneously during a match
Tier: Silver
How to unlock: This achievement requires you to inflict poison, bleed and burn on a single character and all 3 debuffs must be in effect together for the achievement to unlock. The easiest battle to attempt this is the Kotal Kahn boss battle in tower #33 of battle mode.
You are forced to use Venomous D’Vorah on your team anyways so the poison is taken care of automatically. You need to team her with 2 other cards that are able to cause bleed and burn through their special attacks. Tag-in effects/equipment perks will not unlock the achievement so Possessed Kenshi, Assassin Kitana and Ravenous Mileena cannot be used nor will using gear like Blaze's Life Force which causes burn at the start of the match help. The following cards listed below provide bleed and burn effects through special 1 or special 2 attacks.
Bleed
Special 1 - Klassic Scorpion (if dealing 80%+ damage), Dark Lord Kotal Kahn, Slasher Jason Voorhees
Special 2 - Silver Kano, Cutthroat Kano, Piercing Mileena, Shaolin Master Kung Lao, Shaolin Kung Jin, Hellspawn Scorpion, Cyrax Triborg, Relentless Jason Voorhees, Slasher Jason Voorhees
Burn
Special 1 - Hellspawn Scorpion, Klassic Liu Kang
Special 2 - Kold War Scorpion (if dealing 80%+ damage), Demolition Sonya Blade, Flaming Fists Liu Kang, Injustice Scorpion, Bojutsu Kung Jin, Klassic Scorpion, Cybernetic Jacqui Briggs, Klassic Kano, Sektor Triborg
Ensure that the specials are maxed out to have the effect for the longest possible time and beware of Kotal Kahn’s totems when attempting this. Its best to leave the Poison effect for last as the mandatory D'Vorah character for the battle doesn't have her special attacks fully maxed out so it might not last very long if done first or second. Ensure that all 3 debuff attacks are readily available to trigger and do them in quick succession tagging in a teammate as soon as a debuff has been inflicted.
Once you have inflicted all 3 debuffs and they are all taking effect together, the achievement will unlock.
Assuming that you have followed this guide, you should have all 50 achievements unlocked to have 100% achievement completion in Mortal Kombat X mobile.
