The Challenges:
Gunslinger - Kill 150 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 5500cR
I am surprised that they did not throw in a campaign challenge today to go along with the challenges in all the other modes. Regardless, these a hundred and fifty kills needed in multiplayer Matchmaking will not get taken care of by the other challenges today. The only other multiplayer Matchmaking challenge, "T-Hug It Out" will probably bring in about thirty kills. For the remaining a hundred and twenty, stick to the Grifball playlist. You can score thirty to fifty or more kills per game so you can wrap up this challenge extremely quick. Overall, today is pretty easy.

Demon - Kill 30 Elites in Firefight Matchmaking. - 2400cR
Elites are the hardest enemies to kill in Firefight Matchmaking. This challenge will, however, most likely take two games to complete since I am urging you to play in the Score Attack Playlist. Aim for 2X Score Attack since the final wave will always be twenty or so Elites. Do your best to make sure that none of them kill themselves and you will have this done in two easy games. Now, I would suggest completing this challenge first as it will probably get you a bunch of Grunt kills for the "A Satisfied Thirst" challenge. You won't have to play a lot of games in Firefight Matchmaking today anyway.

T-Hug It Out - Kill 7 enemies with close quarters combat in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2400cR
Close quarters combat kills in Reach are kills typically made with the Gravity Hammer, Energy Sword, Shotgun, Melee, or Assassination. Grifball will get you all but one of those kill types (which is the Shotgun) and they are pretty much the only kills you can get unless the bomb explosion kills someone for you. Seven in a single game is a piece of cake as you can easily get thirty to fifty close quarters combat kills in Grifball. This means that you will only need one game to finish this challenge. This is the only multiplayer Matchmaking challenge today so that works just perfectly.

A Satisfied Thirst - Kill 200 Grunts in Firefight Matchmaking. - 3000cR
Well, this is one of the simpler Firefight Challenge we have had come up recently, especially since you just need to kill Grunts. In most gametypes, this will actually take a while since you only get about twenty to thirty grunts per game, so head to the Score Attack playlist. You can play Gruntpocalypse and kill about a hundred and twenty Grunts per game. As you can imagine, this will get the challenge done in just under two full games. However, we also have the "Demon" challenge today which will have you in 2X Score Attack for two games. Finish off "Demon" first as you will get some Grunt kills during it.

The Weekly Challenge:
Best Served Cold - Take your Revenge on 77 enemies in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 7777cR

In order to score a Revenge medal, you will need to kill the enemy that just recently killed you before anyone else does. Grifball is the okay for this challenge as you can die really easily and then get your revenge, but another player can very quickly get the kill as well, so it is a double-edged sword. Team Snipers or Team SWAT can you serve you well also as it follows the same principles of Grifball; easy to die and then get the revenge. You have all week to get these so try to get eleven a day, if not more, and it will be all taken care of.
