The War Games Monthly Challenge:
To The Victor Go The Spoils - Win 30 matchmaking War Games matches. - 30000 XP
So, this is the same exact monthly challenge that we have had for the last three months and the only variation is the number of wins and the amount of XP given. One is going up and the other is going down. Thankfully, wins is the parameter going down and experience points is the parameter going up. I still do not see why they are incapable of doing a monthly challenge that is not based on wins. How about something like a few thousand kills or just complete a large number of games. Anyway, this is what we are tasked with so let us give it a look. You have twenty-eight days this month and thirty wins to get. That is honestly about a win a day so it seems that they are really desperate to bring players back so they are basically giving away credits. Enjoy it though.


If you are going for wins, Flood and Regicide are right out as they are Free-for-all playlists. Oddball is a great option because, if you have a good team, you can camp the ball or pass it back and forth to ensure that you keep the ball in your team's possession. For those people who want the fastest gametypes, well, that is most likely SWAT. Kills come in faster and the game can go very quickly on a smaller map. Some of the faster gametypes are Free-for-alls, like Flood, so I would ignore those as well. The kill limit for all slayer matches was moved to sixty kills which will also extend all games. Now, if you have a good team that is coordinated, Oddball can be a very quick game as long as you pick a defensible position and get the ball immediately, as well as utilizing the pass function. This also hold true for Dominion if you can quickly capture all the bases and then eliminate the enemy team. Stay away from Capture the Flag if you are short on time as those games almost always go the entire time. Grifball has returned as well so look to that if it was good to you in Reach.
