I've always been the type to gain as much awards as I can, and I really what "Killer Pawn"? Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could get the achievement or any others within my reach? The link below is my profile page.

It’s a checkmate with a pawn

I have this achievement.
I don’t know when I got it but you have to checkmate with a pawn.

You don’t really need two pawns. Just get an advantage and slowly walk the opponents king backwards till he’s got no more moves. Allow one if his pieces to move around so that it is not stalemate. Then push your pawn until it works together with another piece(preferably a queen) until it’s checkmate.

Hope this helped

I like how white mates blacks by pushing his pawn

Play a really weak player, take all their material, corral their king, and engineer a situation for your pawn to mate with a discovery (I assume discovery is allowed?)

if check has to be with the pawn itself, then maybe

White should've played Qd5 or Qg5.

Discovery is allowed, as evidenced by the existence of the "Killer King" achievement, which you can only achieve with a setup like this:

As for killer pawn, I traded unrated daily games with a fellow player so that we both got the achievement. We used this "game":

But the idea is to mate with a pawn move Maestro

I don't think there'd ever be a game like the one with the moves:

1. g4 h5

2. g5 Rh7

3. Bh3 Rh8

4. Be6 Rh7

5. g6 Rh8

6. gxf7#

That's quite a silly game

@Nohjay
I missed where you said you played engineered games with a cooperative opponent. Not sure that's right to do.

Any rate, I'm pretty sure someone could just play a 500 rated player and engineer the kind of setup I proposed and get their badge.
