I managed to beat this hunt on Normal, Hard(twice), and Crazy with randoms. Not sure how it happened though.
For normal we had two VampFlwrs(me) and two Corns, one regular and one bbq corn. All of us were high ranked with the corns being 40something and 54 and I am at the moment 28. The corns were just whittling the boss's health down like he was nothing and without the damage boost. Felt like the damage boost was optional and they didn't know about it until i retrieved it.
Crazy got off to a rocky start with the other Vamflwr disconnecting as soon as the match started. A player joined but decided to play as a Hot Rod Chomper, whom quit pretty quickly. Then the Kernal Corn player got disconnected. So another player joined as a electrocitron but he wasn't bad. We managed to get beat the Crazy mode with just the three of us. Wished I recorded it.
The possibility of being constantly Frozen in this one s annoying, but there seems to be fewer steps than The Tale of the Spooky Squash and in my first couple of goes at it this morning to figure out the steps the random team I had joined got way farther in the first and second run through than we did trying to figure out the procedure for The Spooky Squash.
TBH I think it's one of the easier boss fights yet, the only thing I've found that makes it harder than it needs to be is the constant threat of being frozen by the yeti imps, foot soldiers, and all-stars.
It's not a super hard boss if you can work with your team to destroy the icicles and get the tanky class to drink the slurpee.
I've only beat it on normal so far, so maybe i'm a little biased.
@Buba2426 I thought it about the same, on normal difficulty. Do you consider peashooter to be tanky? We had two vamp flowers, an ice pea, and me as default pea. I killed the king's fool each time and drank the slurpee, and it went picture perfect. But that was the only round of it that I played today, so maybe it was a fluke.
After playing quite a few Boss Hunts today I find that, by far, the biggest difficulty is the huge number of completely new players who were introduced to the game over the Holidays.
Out of 8 or 10 rounds I tried this morning with random players, since my regular team of Boss Hunt veterans wasn't available, I encountered only one higher ranked person who had been through a few Boss Hunts- the rest of the players popping in and out were all under Rank 150. The few who tried to play Sunflowers lacked the experience to know to constantly use heal Beams and Heal Flowers to neutralize freezing effects and the newer players in general did an incredibly poor job of protecting the Ice Cream Cone long enough for the Yeti King to spawn.

We have to schedule. I need hard and crazy but you guys probably need normal too and only 2 days left already.
I can't complete the Boss Hunt due to being matched up with a bunch of very low levels (about between 10 to 50) when I'm level 2000 +, so that's happening, along with the spawning of ice characters and the Yeti boss, which I hate due to freezing, and then there is the big robot himself, the Yeti King. I found a solution, though... SUNFLOWERS! Mostly Stuffy, though.
When a sunflower is healing you, you are immune to all effects, including being frozen. When Stuffy Flower kills a zombie, they explode into rainbows and drop healing bits, so if you have 2 Stuffy Flowers healing each other via Heal Beam and the Heal Flower, along with her special effect and high accuracy and damage, you can win easily if you do this, if you have a good team.
My suggestion: Sunflower (Stuffy [Highly Suggested], Vampy, Sun Pharaoh [Skilled Player]) x2, Citron (Frost, Party, Normal)/Torchwood, Kernel Corn (BBQ, Normal, Party, Commando)/Peashooter (Toxic, Fire, Agent, Commando [Skilled Player], Rock, Electro [Highly Skilled Player Only]
