But honestly, why should achievements be obtainable by all? Then what's the point? Why not just give everyone 200 points just for loading up the game right from the start?
And this is coming from an achievement whore! (I have over 100k GS, i'm embarassed to admit..)
Top 20 is obtainable with very little skill (but enough to make it an "achievement", as well as getting a Trueskill of say 25+. People can't just boost Trueskill at least.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for difficult achievements, it's just that leaderboard achievements are unfair imo. Like Rat said, having your name posted up on the leaderboard for everyone to see is an achievement in itself. There's no need to put it on the official achievement list.
In general though, I just don't like the idea of multiplayer related achievements. They're almost always based either on luck or how long you've played the game. Rarely are they based on skill. And when they are based on skill(and also luck) it just makes people boost for them, which can ruin multiplayer. I prefer multiplayer with in-game unlockables. People are less inclined to boost for those than if they're getting more gamerscore, and you're still being rewarded for accomplishing things in multiplayer.
