Is Summer Robin actually an upgrade?

I keep seeing conflicting information so I want to confirm if Summer Robin is better than Cyrene for Castorice teams. For example on Prydwen the fastest clears are with Cyrene. The videos I watched have differing views and calculations, with some saying Summer Robin is always better, whereas others are saying that Summer Robin is only an upgrade for Evernight mDPS. When I check past posts on this subreddit people seem to say that Summer Robin is optimal for Castorice. I’m just wondering who is right here

HOLY DAMN.

I knew it would be hard due to Elation being the only way to chip the barrier... But to think they sneaked in HP reductions.

I hope whoever did this will FOREVER stub their toes EVERY SINGLE MORNING!

E1S1 Castorice, E1S1 Evernight, E0S1 Hyacine, and E0S0 Cyrene

Sometimes I wish Cyrene's Ode to Life and Death could have been designed better

Option 1. Remove the 2T requirement for the bounce multiplier increase

Option 2. Increase breath multiplier when 2T or above

Option 3. Add a equal distribution multiplier for the breath at 3T or above

I actually fell asleep fighting this boss. THIS IS NOT OKAY HOYO

I knew this King Stage was terrible. I heard all the complaints beforehand. But good Lord I didn't expect it to be this bad. This is the most brain-dead shill boss I've ever encountered in a game period. It does literally everything wrong. Wasting the players time? Check. Completely cripple sustainless teams? Check. Screws over Shield sustains? Check. Removes all variety & skill expression from the game? Check. Punishes the player for not spending? Check. Punishes the player for spending but not on the right shill? Double Check. I thought sure I don't have elation but with my 14 cost remembrance team, literally the most synergistic team in the game mind you, plus element type weakness and close to 300 SPD Hyacine and I still had a hard time. This fight took so long I legitimately fell asleep while blowing up the dragon over and over again. Did the Devs even play test this?? It's this really the future of Star Rail??

Update: I originally thought it was funny that so many people just assumed I was lying about falling asleep (I really did btw). But honestly it's kinda sad seeing how many people are hyper focused on my zero cycle rather than the problems the stage has. If this is how most players react then it's no wonder the Devs can get away with this stuff. I'm a sweaty dolphin. I vertically invested and built my favourite teams to zero cycle. I'm sorry if that offends some people. But please don't let that detract from the topic at hand. The Devs made this stage bad intentionally, and I think that's more important than some random guy's zero cycle

Castorice Ult Charge Help

After my Castorice Dragon explodes and hyacine goes next, I use her skill followed up with Ica and castorice ult is only charged to 97%. While every clear video I see has it going to 100%. The breakdown is usually 30% after dragon explodes -> Hyacine’s turn it goes up to 42% -> she uses skill it goes up to 78% -> Ica goes and it goes to 97%. Meanwhile in every clear video it goes from 42% to 82-84%, then Ica goes and it is straight to 100%.
I’m wondering what I can do to fix this problem, i have pictures of my 5 rememberance character’s and their builds.
Teams are either Castorice, hyacine, Srobin with either Cyrene/ evernight as last slot.

Thank you for the help!
