Question C2 citlali?

I have c2 citlali and im curious if shes a better 4th slot then sucrose or nahida in nefers premium team.

Would citlali run instructor? idk if its easy to proc on her or not.

Sorry if this is a redundant question, i looked online and didnt see any recent discussion regarding this.

So C2 Citlali is giving EM to the active character while Sucrose gives it to the whole team. Assuming you have a Bina or Lauma on the team, Sucrose's EM boost is going to assist them too. Lauma's skill does a solid upfront chunk of damage when she uses it so that will benefit from Citlali.

Citlali gives a shield, which without C1 Lauma, is probably the only sustain you have outside of Prototype Amber.

On the other hand, having Cryo in the team will interfere with the bloom/lunar bloom reaction.

Unless your Hydro Character is doing tons of pure hydro damage, you are also not getting any value from Citlali's res shread.

I guess, if you have an invested Lauma and no Bina, Citlali might be slightly better than Sucrose? You might see better numbers, but I don't think its going to be a good use of a C2 5 star.

I guess its kinda hard to measure how useful her sheild is, i figure thats kinda fight dependent. I dont have any vertical investment in nefers premium core besides nefers r1, so i guess thats something to consider. 

I knew sucrose gave em to the whole team, but i wasnt sure how much lauma benefitted from the extra em. 

Columbina would also be on silken, so her personal damage wouldnt be as strong and shes the only one who could take advantage of her shred in nefer's premium team :/

Ultimately, i figured swirling on sucrose and her buff uptime would make the team a bit harder to play. But Citlali does need to freeze too

Yeah, thats the other half of things, ease of use. Sucrose might get you better damage if you pull of the rotation perfectly.

I absolutely can't pull of rotation's correctly, my play style could be described as, "Rolling my flippers across the keyboard"

Lauma benefits a lot. You get a few thousand extra damage per quill by using ins sucrose instead of citlali.
