The Challenges:
Blastin' and Relaxin' - Kill 180 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 2343cR
Well, a hundred and eighty challenges needed to complete today's challenges at least. Most likely, all the other challenges today will not get you to the required number of kills for this challenge as you will be off by a good hundred or so. The best option to get these kills done after completing all the other challenges is to play some games of Firefight Matchmaking, most likely in the Score Attack playlist. 2X Score Attack or Gruntpocalypse are the best gametypes for this challenge as they are the fastest and will both supply you with about a hundred and twenty kills. However, that may leave you a few kills short and a second game may be necessary.

Fourth Horseman - Earn 5 multikills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2500cR
So, how have you been doing on that Weekly Challenge? Probably done by now, to be honest, but, if not, it will work well today in conjunction with this challenge. A multikill is earned when you score multiple kills, each one being within four seconds of each other without dying during it. You can stack this up to nine multikills but that will be unnecessary for our purposes since we just need five. You are best off hitting the Grifball playlist as it is practically made for multikills. Should take a single game to complete as you can easily get ten or more multikills per game in this playlist.

Iron Will - Complete a Campaign mission alone on Heroic or harder with the Iron Skull on. - 2500cR
So this challenge will require you to run through a mission in the campaign solo with the Iron Skull on, which will make the mission start over from the start anytime you die. This can be very irritating on the harder levels and you are best off simply speed-running through the level Nightfall, which can be done in about seven to ten minutes. A guide to running through the level can be found right here. If speed-running Nightfall is not your cup of tea then playing through Winter Contingency is your best and fastest bet as it is the easiest mission besides Nightfall.

Came From Behind - Perform 2 Assassinations in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2200cR
Assassinations are probably one of the coolest functions added in for Halo Reach and that are staying for Halo 4. To perform an assassination you need to get up behind an opposing player and just hold the melee button. This will activate an assassination animation that will need to mostly complete for the assassination to count. For me, Team Snipers has always has been the best playlist for this challenge as the other players lose focus on anything not down their sniper scope and can be easily flanked. Scoring two in a game should not be too challenging but try other playlists if this is not working for you.
