Some people have partys which use Dendro and Cymbi which is a really strong hit duo, capable of one shotting most mobs. Add on more aoe like BB or Cattelya, if you dont have those add units like edelweiss (2 unit aoe and heal). Personally 4 aoe rainbows + Cymbi is better than 5 rainbows.

^ This. People looking at available helper squads can only see TP and Speed, so they don't know if your units have high attack unless they know the units specifically. I know I look for either Speed or certain combos (my favorite is Edelweiss/Toad Lily when going into pest-heavy maps like 12-3/12-5), I don't look at TP much myself since my teams are strong enough to kill most stuff (especially Team 1, my helper team, with 4 evolved rainbows). I only drop allies due to inactivity or raid boss nuking though, my units are strong enough idc if an ally is weaker than the others.
