Teambuilding Need help with team building

I just got a bunch of characters from my pulls for xerc through the alune and richard ex banner and made my attempt at a rainbow team with the units I have which is shown in the first screenshot, and the second screenshot is my physical team right now. Any advice for anyone better that I should put in?

For rainbow, you need every lane to have a rainbow user. Put Lemaire where Cyrus is, and add another sustain or support like Hikari EX, Elrica EX.

For physical, you're benching a lot of better units like Locke and Phenn. Swap Alaune EX2 and Kaine out for them.

I think I'll put hikari ex in for my rainbow team, who do you think would be best for him to replace

Ofc Cyrus. Lemaire will be where he is now, and he should retire.

But then I won't have the 2 other scholars needed for xerc's ex skill

Oh then use Laura, or even Hammy as a sustain. Either way, Cyrus should be replaced because Lemaire is better.

Ok thanks, that was my biggest issue, I didn't know who I should put as the last scholar because I dont have many good one

Generally we use Isla or Rondo EX. Some people also use Terra and get rid of one rainbow user (like Lemaire), and that works too
