The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
Pretty simple challenges today that will only require you to play in multiplayer Matchmaking and Firefight. This challenge will have you playing in the later. A hundred and twenty kills is pretty easy to come by in Firefight Matchmaking and it is what you will typically amass in a single game. You can fall slightly short if you only play Gruntpocalypse but I would rather try 2X Score Attack as the enemies are slightly less likely to commit suicide.

Throwing Fireballs - Kill 2 enemies with grenades in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
Grenade kills are things that happen all the time in multiplayer Matchmaking and you should be bringing some in every so often. You will need to score two grenade kills in a single game to complete this challenge. Now, Multi Team really is the best playlist for this challenge because there is a ton of targets, you can get a ton of kills, and people are always weakening each other making grenade kills even easier. Just do not pick Rocket Hog Race. That will really ruin your chances of getting grenade kills.

Explosive Ordnance Distribution - Earn 3 kills with ordnance weapon in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
This challenge used to be a complete pain since only a few levels have ordnance weapons and they are, normally, highly sought after. The remedy for this is the Action Sack playlist. Aim for gametypes like Splockets or Dino Blasters. Both gametypes start you with ordnance weapons that all have unlimited ammunition. It should not be hard at all to score three kills in a single game in those circumstances. This can definitely be done in your more vanilla playlists, but this just makes it much easier.

Five-time Champ - Win 5 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 4343cR
Winning games can always be a challenge because there is so much that is not under your control. Five games should not take you all day but be prepared to spend more than ten games getting this challenge done. Here are some rules to help you. Firstly, pick gametypes that only have two teams. This, simply, increases your chances of being on the winning team. Secondly, stick to gametypes, maps, and teammates that you know. You will likely do better in a more familiar setting. Thirdly, take a break if you get frustrated. Trust me, it is better that way. Good luck.
