Spirit Ashe/Setup strategy for Malenia?

Hi! I have finally reached the moment I have been so long waiting for and as expected, Malenia whoops my ass. I have barely managed to get her to half hp in second phase (that with mimic tear). I am currently using Giant Crusher (Lion's Claw) with Radahn's Armor. My main strategy was to keep her staggered as much as possible in the first phase, but in the second phase she kinda destroys me. I barely manage to dodge her flower explosion when the phase starts and the waterfowl is pretty annoying. I will try my best to learn her moveset, but is there any better setup to beat her? I saw some old posts about RoB with mimic, but that got extremely nerfed.

What if the DLC begins or ends here?

I know, we already end the standard game inside this *massive* tree, but read the enphasis on *massive*. Maybe if the story contains a tree wrapping around the Erdtree like in the image we got, it would be such a nice way to explore more of this lore, going around the branches of this iconic figure. I can see myself discovering some pretty shady things and possibly living being on those thousand branches while we circle it, to then proceed to the “Shadow” and figure out wtf is going on Thoughts?

I drew Malenia

I’m not an artist, but I was bored at work. Arm proportions are fucked, but I’m still proud of it.
