3 stun window, 5 ultimate (about 2 - 2.5 of the ultimate will be inside stun). each stun with 3 EBA and 3 frost disorder damage. Miyabi anomaly damage from Shatter and frost disorder is number one damage priority over EBA since in this scenario Miyabi is optimized on AP build to utilize Yuzuha anomaly damage amplification, which is proven to be the current best strategy.
Kill is not possible this season without M1 Miyabi or M1 Yuzuha, due to high boss HP with only mediocre DA buff.

Optimized Miyabi build for anomaly damage focus (with Yuzuha and anomaly damage buff/environment only):
~2500 ATK >400 AP (AP disc 4) 60% - 68% CR ~100% CDMG 32% PEN ratio (Puffer Electro 2pc)
This is proven by communities testing to be the current best build for high scoring on high HP Butcher. I am still using 2pc Phaethon's Melody here as an alternative because I don't have the necessary build, and the faster anomaly buildup momentum feels nicer. 10% DEF shred from DA buff and 5 roll of flat PEN does reduce this 2pc diff by a bit

other than Metanukimorphosis, her W-Engine option is Weeping Cradle and Kaboom the Cannon, both is good enough.
Yuzuha full buff is achieved with 3000 ATK and 200 AM. Signature W-Engine gives a really fast disorder rotation, giving a different rotation overall, but getting a similar performance damage wise with >R3 Weeping Cradle is possible.

Kaboom the Cannon or Elegant Vanity is the best option for this scenario where we are focusing mainly on Miyabi anomaly damage. Unfettered Game Ball is not necessary and generally gives worse results.
2500 ATK. Building AP on Soukaku for more anomaly damage is a good invesment.
Freedom Blues currently is irreplacable on Soukaku since its really good for disorders momentum.

How to Play & Additional Tips
This team has a really simple game plan, we want to proc back-to-back disorder between Frost (Miyabi) and Ice (Soukaku), to keep Miyabi enhanced basic going. Yuzuha is really good at supporting both of them with her anomaly buildup rate buff and aftershocks that also help Soukaku anomaly buildup.
The damage optimization part is on how much enhanced basic and disorder We can fit inside the stun window, and this requires some practice on anomaly meter management and how long we can keep Butcher frozen to keep the stun meter going down. With enough practice, we can even get a 4 EBA stun rotation!
Yuzuha gameplay is very simple, just swap in to use her EX for candy points whenever its ready. But do keep in mind to not swap to her whenever she's in her aftershock animation, as it has a really long animation.
The steepest learning curve in this team, I'd say, is Soukaku dash attack cancel. It is an integral part of the rotation as it generates considerable amount of energy for soukaku, and build ice anomaly off field. They way we do it is: EX press (the fan swing) > EX hold (the fan slam the floor / Fly the flag) > press dash to cancel the fly the flag animation > press basic to continue to dash attack, then basic again for BA3 followup > QA to Miyabi after dash attack input, before the QA note is gone
Throughout the fight, you might find Soukaku EX only fill the anomaly meter to the max but not trigger freeze. That is caused by anomaly internal cooldown of 3s that's hard coded into the game combat system. Following the EX with another EX, or better, with the dash attack cancel, will solve that problem. The anomaly ICD is not entirely bad, as it can be used to our advantage to time the freeze inside the stun, or when we don't want to freeze just yet.
