Inside the sphere, Garan was holding out against two elementalists with higher levels than him. By this time, only Vara and Feller remained standing. The rest easily became collateral damage in the battle of elites early on.
Inside the circle, stepping on the ground was like a freezing death sentence, particularly to non-elementalists. And, even for the elementalists, stepping carelessly into Garan's field consumed energy.
So at first, Vara was focused on creating platforms for himself (which the others took advantage of) while the enemy was focused on dealing with the dozen or so people before him.
This could also work to weaken him. Vara wasn't fond of a challenge. He enjoyed lording over an enemy who was helpless, and he had no qualms with dealing with a weakened enemy.
