The Challenges:
One Spartan Army - Kill 250 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3500cR
So, Firefight Matchmaking today, as usual per Thursday, which is pretty much the easiest game mode in Reach. Two hundred and fifty kills is not an extraordinarily high amount of kills for Firefight. This will undoubtedly get taken care of while working on the "Flat Tire" and "Demon" challenge as both of those challenges will likely get you about two-hundred to a hundred kills. This should put you well into the range of three hundred or so kills, completing this challenge easily. No need for additional work today.

Survivor - Earn 9 Sprees in a Firefight Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
A spree in Firefight Matchmaking, unlike multiplayer Matchmaking, requires ten kills uninterrupted by death as opposed to five. However, sprees are very, very common in Firefight Matchmaking. You can score five of them before the sprees become more spread out and you can score six if you do not die during a game in the Score Attack playlist. Clearly, you will therefore need to die to get all these sprees done in a single game, even if you can get a weapon spree with the Sniper, Shotgun, or Sword. This will be easiest to do while working on the "Flat Tire" challenge as you will be sitting through an entire game anyway. Just die once you hit fifty kills and then you can finish this one off.

Flat Tire - Kill 5 enemy vehicles in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2000cR
This is the focal challenge of the day as it will be taking up a decent chunk of time though, on the bright side, you only need to score five vehicle kills which is well below the ten it used to constantly demand. Now, the best map on which to score vehicle kills is Holdout as it has static Banshee spawns which pop out a Banshee every two to four minutes. This means that you can get up to five kills in a single game but getting three kills is more realistic. In terms of gametype, do not play 2X Score Attack as those kills will often not work (No clue why.). Instead, aim for Sniper Attack with Rocket and FRG Attack as backups. Will require two games to complete this one.

Demon - Kill 40 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2800cR
Elites are the toughest enemies you will face in Reach, besides a real human opponent but being as this is in Firefight Matchmaking, it does not end up being too hard. Now, you will likely get a bunch of kills while working on the "Flat Tire" challenge as the final wave of whatever gametype you choose will likely have some Elites in it. Expect to get about twenty-five to thirty kills from those two games you will likely play. After that, your best bet is to step back into the Score Attack playlist and choose 2X Score Attack. The final wave of this gametype is always about twenty or so Elites that are easy as hell to kill. As well, if you are not going for the "Flat Tire" challenge, two games of 2X Score Attack will complete this challenge for you.
