The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
Well, this is your typical challenge for a Firefight Thursday (which today is) and it will require absolutely no extra work on your end to complete. A hundred and twenty kills is what you would get on average if you completed a single game in the Score Attack playlist and even possibly in the Firefight playlist. "The T.G. Opposition" challenge will require two Firefight playlist games for about two-hundred kills while "A Simple Spree" and "Katanarama" will likely get done in the same games that you are already playing. Relax for this challenge.

A Simple Spree - Earn any spree in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2000cR
No need to really go in depth for this challenge. A spree in Firefight Matchmaking is when you score ten kills in a row without dying. This will be pretty much done in your first ten kills of whatever game you play today for Firefight. Thanks to the other Firefight Matchmaking challenges today, this will not even be hard to complete. You will likely need to play two games of Firefight today and, whichever one you do, this challenge will be completed almost immediately unless you are extremely unlucky or happen to really suck. Likely neither of those describe you, so an easy challenge none the less.

The T.G. Opposition - Kill 100 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking with the Shotgun. - 3000cR
There is really only one way to reliably get a shotgun in Firefight Matchmaking and that is to go into the standard Firefight playlist and pick Arcadefight. Now, a hundred kills will likely just take two games to complete because you will likely need to compete with three other players for kills, but it is slightly possible in a single game if you are on a small map and everyone else is idle. The Shotgun is an extremely short-range weapon so that will make it more difficult. Aim for a smaller map like Courtyard or Corvette and, again, expect to play two games for this challenge.

Katanarama - Kill 1 enemies using the Energy Sword in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2000cR
You have two options for this challenge and both are pretty easy. The first option is to head to the standard Firefight playlist and get a game of Arcadefight. One of the loadouts there has the Energy Sword, so just score a single kill with it. The other option is going to the Score Attack playlist and doing 2X Score Attack. The final wave is always Elites and a few will have swords. Kill one of them, get his sword, and score the kill for the challenge. Personally, due to "The T.G. Opposition" challenge, I would go the Arcadefight route.
