The Challenges:
Fire When Ready - Kill 30 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 1100cR
For a Friday, I am surprised to see such short and, generally, non-grinding challenges. This challenge, requiring you to score thirty kills overall today in multiplayer Matchmaking, can be finished in a single game of Grifball. In fact, I fully recommend hitting this playlist for quick kills and easy multikills. However, this challenge can be done in any playlist as thirty kills will not be at all hard to hit in a single day. Seriously, you can do it wherever.

Participation Counts - Complete 4 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2400cR
Typically, we would see a challenge asking you to win four games in a day on most Fridays. This is a pleasant surprise, however, since simply completing games is a much easier task. There are some rules to remember, however. If you quit a game, it does not count towards this total. If you teamkill, whether accidentally or on purpose, and get kicked from the game, it does not count. If you sit in idle in a game, it might count, though it will likely be followed by the ban-hammer so it is not the best idea.

Streaky Shooter - Earn 5 sprees in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2850cR
A spree in multiplayer Matchmaking is five kills uninterrupted by death or the end of a round. Getting five of those over a day can prove to be a challenge, but not if you are in the right playlists. Now, there is a chance that you can get some sprees in Grifball, but you will likely die often enough that it will be difficult. The Living Dead playlist is a great place to get some sprees though the Zombie Killing Sprees and the possibly Shotgun Sprees will not count towards this total. Expect this to take a few games.

... Got a Triple Double - Earn 3 Double Kills in the same match in Multiplayer Matchmaking. - 3000cR
This is the reason I suggested earlier that you should play some Grifball. This challenge requires you to get three Double Kills in multiplayer. Ideally, this should get done in a single game. It can also be done in any playlist that you choose. You can get a Double Kill in multiplayer Matchmaking by getting two kills within four seconds of each other. If you keep getting kills within four seconds of each other, than that will continue to stack the multikill instead of giving you new Double Kills. Pause between kills to make sure you get three Doubles.
