The Challenges:
Covenant-cide - Kill 120 enemies in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3200cR
There is one other Firefight Matchmaking Daily challenge today and it should more than take care of this challenge, which is asking you for a hundred and twenty kills in that game-mode. The "Demon" challenge is asking you for fifty Elite kills today and, since that will take about three games to complete, this should finish off this challenge. Every game you play will get you about a hundred and twenty kills which means that this challenge will be done in pretty much your first game. No need to worry about it, it is all taken care of.

Gunslinger - Kill 75 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2250cR
It is quite rare that we get two of these challenges to just get kills in a mode for one today. Well, hopefully it does not become a trend. Well, there is a chance that the "Better, Closer, Warmer" challenge will take care of this one for you, but it is miniscule. More than likely, you will need to play some extra games to finish this challenge off. Stick to Objective games as they will allow you to score a bunch of kills due to the lack of a kill limit. Grifball is probably the best option as you can score thirty to forty kills per game. Invasion, Big Team Battle, and Multi Team are also some worthwhile options.

Demon - Kill 50 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Well, this will be nowhere near as hard as it was before but it is the only Firefight Matchmaking challenge today sparing "Covenant-cide." Elites are the hardest enemies to kill in Firefight Matchmaking. This challenge will, however, most likely take two to three games to complete since I am urging you to play in the Score Attack playlist. In the Score Attack playlist, you will want to aim for the 2X Score Attack gametype. The final wave of every game will have about twenty Elites for you to kill. This means that you will need to play at least three games to finish off this challenge. You can also play in the standard Firefight playlist, but it will take longer. Work on this after doing what you need to today for the Weekly Challenge.

Better, Closer, Warmer - Earn at least 10 kills in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2500cR
To be extremely honest, you should have no trouble with this challenge. This score total is well below what you should be hitting on average in even a slayer match in which kills can be limited. However, if today is proving difficult for you for scoring kills, head to an objective gametype where you have more time or just head to Grifball. Grifball makes everything easier as it will allow you to score almost thirty kills per game and no one has anywhere to hide as well as spawning really fast. Complete this challenge after "Gunslinger" if need be.

The Weekly Challenge:
Like a Record, Baby - Complete 50 Rounds in Firefight Matchmaking. - 7777cR

Oh, look it is this challenge again. Well, at least they did not change the credit value for it. This will still be a little challenging, however, have no doubts about it. First off, a typical Firefight game (in the Firefight Playlist) is a single set. A set is made up of three rounds, which are individually made up of five waves. Now, try to get a full team of four to make sure that you do hit and complete a full set every game. Over seven days, this means you need to get about seven rounds per day, which is three Firefight Matchmaking games. Again, this will be time consuming. If you have time now, play what Firefight you can. As well, stay away from Score Attack. This would take fifty games to complete in that playlist.
