I tried googling this and didn't find any easy ways to cheese it, but luckily I stumbled upon something. Figured I would share. I know these achievements aren't hard, but I never got them due to the time-sink. 3 minutes per game * 300 games = about 15 hours.

It doesn't seem to work as protoss, but for terran/zerg it's very simple.

Map is steppes of war, opponent is terran.

1. train a worker
2. at the 15 second mark attack-move to their mineral line(all workers, with waypoints to ensure you get their refinery)
3. do something else for 3-4 minutes
4. repeat

So nice to spend 20s(bit more with loading times... sorry can't edit title) setting up a win and then being able to do whatever between games. Unfortunately this only accounts for terran/zerg portion of the achievement, but it's better than nothing. Hope someone benefits from this.

Thank you People are always finding interesting ways to grind out achievements.

Perhaps you just have to micro with probes instead of truly going afk?

It does work for protoss with minimal probe micro, just tried vs. zerg opponent.

Won't allow you as much AFK-time though

If you want to get all the achievements for AI crusher/custom games - play vs Elite AI which grants the lower tier achievements as well.

Its like playing the campaign on brutal - will also net you the hard/normal/easy portraits and achievements.

This method WILL get you all the very easy achievements but such a large time sink and you havent even unlocked the other AI level ones.

Helps, but for medium/hard/elite you only need 100 wins. For very easy you need 100 as each race including random, so you can knock out random this way, but you will still have 200 games split between the three races to grind out.

The exact time for accepting the victory seems to be 3:30 for it to count. For Exp, it's 3 flat.

Weird.
don't wall off against random
