Why not a sorcerer waving their hand). Gold also wouldn't want anyone's protection spell near his dagger, even though he could take all of them down by himself if he wanted to. I don't know why he didn't just put it in his vault of powerful objects.

I think Ingrid is the most intelligent with Cora right behind her. Ingrid uses her magic the best, by that I mean uses of magical energy. She, in theory, split her power freezing Arendelle, regenerating the ice wall, and regenerating her Viking. Besides the frozen Arendelle, I think it takes a lot (hours) of time for her to set up her regeneration stuff. Cora adapted many spells in her repertoire and learned some new tricks. Did Ingrid have dark magic too or just strong ice magic?

In all actuality, Ingrid could just wave her arm and freeze everyone(Team Mills, Emma) and would technically win. But that aside, we never saw her freeze powerful magic beings though. Dark Magic is open to a lot of interpretation and I feel we haven't seen all of it yet, even if the only spell they have Regina doing is fireball after fireball. At least she did a sleep spell in "Enter the Dragon" and teleported a large object. And don't forget- Ingrid is the master of memory magic. If she can do it to Elsa and Emma, she could easily do it to Regina and the others- freeze them and then amnesia them. Or she could cast a mini spell of shattered sight and use it on any of the Team Mills members to bring out their worst. With so much resentment and negative feelings towards each other, she could just sit back and watch them kill each other off first. I wonder what would happen if someone tried to rip out Ingrid's heart? Would they just freeze instantly by touching her? I mean it's not like she's just going to let it happen. Ingrid used rocks of the rock troll. She can't use it in this fight since no magical weapons allowed. We actually don't know how she casted spell of shattered sight, but Ingrid can't immobilize people, just turn them to icicles. Team Mills however can use the immobilization spell. If they immobilize Ingrid or just even take her heart, she can't freeze them for touching her heart because she'll be under their control once they reach in and grab it.
