The Challenges:
Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2343cR
You should have no problem hitting a hundred and eighty kills today due to the other Daily Challenges. "Heroic Court" is asking you to score a hundred and twenty-five kills in Firefight Matchmaking, "Return of the Mack" is asking you to get fifty Elite kills in the Campaign, and, on top of all that, "Who's the Big Winner?" has you playing at least twelve games of multiplayer but likely many more since you need twelve wins. Do not even worry about this challenge today since you have bigger fish to fry.

Who's the Big Winner? - Win 12 games in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 10000cR
This will definitely take up most of your day. Just completing twelve games, by itself, is a lot and having to win that many is even worse. Typically, games of Team SWAT and Grifball are some of the faster games, though they can also be quite long if camping or spawn camping occurs, respectively. Play whatever playlists you enjoy today, but I would stick to gametypes that have no more than two teams since that raises your chances of being on the winning side. This could take anywhere from twelve to twenty-four games so be prepared for the long haul.

Heroic Court - Kill 125 enemies on Courtyard on Heroic in Firefight Matchmaking. - 1000cR
Courtyard is probably my favorite Firefight map and one of the easiest to play on. There are great sightlines everywhere and plenty of elevation so you can step back out of range of your opponents. A hundred and twenty-five kills should be done in a single game as long as you pick Gruntpocalypse of 2X Score Attack but there is a very large chance that you will be just short of a hundred and twenty-five kills due to enemies committing suicide accidentally. You may need to play a second game on the map just for a few kills but it should not be too bad.

Return of the Mack - Kill 50 Elites in Campaign today on Normal or harder. - 1700cR
ONI: Swordbase is a great mission for this challenge as is Long Night of Solace when started from Rally Point Bravo. Both missions feature a ton of Elites and, time wise, they are about the same. Really, Long Night of Solace is probably the better mission since you will pretty much be in there solo and can secure all the kills where as Kat might steal a few on ONI: Swordbase. Both of these mission will not get you this challenge in a single play through so expect to play the level twice as well or to go on to the next level. Do note that after Long Night of Solace, Elites are non-existent until The Package.
