The Challenges:
Gunslinger - Kill 150 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 5500cR
Well, this challenge will, most certainly, not be taken care of for you today by the other challenges. Not a chance in hell. The only other multiplayer Matchmaking challenge that you have will be the "Sweep the Leg" challenge which is just asking you to score a single assassination in multiplayer Matchmaking. Once you have that challenge done, focus on this one. Realistically, your best option is Grifball, unless you plan on putting a lot of playing time in today. In Grifball, you will typically hit about thirty to forty kills per game. That means four to five days to complete this challenge. Get a really even game that has a lot of back and forth and long rounds and that number of kills can double. Get to it.

Support Structure - Earn 30 assists in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2250cR
So this is the lone challenge that will have you in Firefight today. Now, assists are awarded when you deal forty percent damage to an enemy and someone else gets the kill. For Firefight, this means you need teammates. For that reason, I am suggesting you play in the Firefight playlist. Score Attack is a solo adventure and will be no help here.. Communicate with your teammates so they know you are going for assists and not to worry about you getting mad if they steal kills. Expect this to take two to three games to complete.

A Side of Heuvos - Kill 40 enemies with Sniper Rifle headshots in Nightfall on Normal. - 3000cR
This is actually a harder challenge than you think as Sniper Rifle headshots are not all that easy to come by, a lot of times people score body shots for the kill. I would recommend playing through the level on Normal or Heroic, it is all about your preference. What you will want to do is replay a bunch of high volume areas as this will allow you to get this done in a single play through. The first area with a large group of enemies you get to is the best one for Sniping, so replay it a few time if necessary. Stopping this challenge half-way through and going to play something else will likely kill you progress, so just get it done.

Sweep the Leg - Perform an Assassination in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
This is a simple enough challenge that I would bet that most players could probably complete with every other game they play. To score an assassination, you need to get behind an opponent and hold the melee button. This will trigger and assassination animation that needs to mostly complete for the assassination to count. The only other multiplayer Matchmaking challenge today is "Gunslinger" which is asking you to get a hundred and fifty kills in multiplayer Matchmaking so it will not exactly get this challenge done for you. I would head for Team Snipers were you can easily sneak around people and score assassination. Attempts on elevations and in the air will go faster so aim for those if you keep getting show-stopped.
