Alucio is a smart guy, and choosing to fight the Ice Wyvern was, in fact, a good decision.
First of all, due to the wyvern's highly cautious nature, it takes time before it even makes its first attack. This means they'll rack up free points just by selecting this creature as their opponent.
Second, Alucio's mana attribute is fire, which directly counters the wyvern's ice-based attacks. Fire spells are twice as effective when dealing with ice-element enemies, both offensively and defensively.
