Bear in mind that victors over these challengers are not necessarily the champions with the best colors or odds. We are only seeking to MAYBE recognize some pattern of dominance, and offer suggestions to players who prefer not to randomly select champions.
Please don't ask for suggestions on specific dragons. Just post your NON-ULTIMATE victories and search the thread for any Arctic challenger that's bugging you.
Note: Dragons currently living on our Arctic Isles are not enabled for battle, although the arena is presenting us with Arctic challengers.
Many players have noted that odds of winning in general seem to have been reduced since the debut of the prize dragon, Gladiator. This may be one reason that Arctics seem harder to beat; the other reason is we just don't know which colors are best against them.
Below is a starter list of victories that I've gathered from the Gladiator thread, general Battle Arena thread, and in-game communications:
ICE ELEMENT
IceAge (C) < Diamond, Forest, Titan
Meteor (C) < Diamond, Forest
Fossil (R)< Crusader, Fire
Cave (S) < ???
Bedrock (S) < BlackSwan, Landworm, Leviathan
ABOM ELEMENT
Abominable (C) < Fruitful, Honeybee
Sasquatch (R) < Leviathan
Yeti (S) < Aether, Eagle
Sabretooth (S) < Angel, Crusader, Elf, Parakeet, Storm
Icecrown (U) < Crusader, Diamond
BLIZZ ELEMENT
Blizzard (R) < Athletic, Eagle, Landworm, Parakeet, Planet
Snowflake (R) < Athletic, Diamond, Planet, Scarecrow
Alpine (S) < Crusader, Forestfire
Polar (S) < Lightning
