Euryale isn't neccessarily better. It really depends on her team members.

While Euryale is a 3 star that's much easier to get to NP5 than the 5 star Orion, her kit is very niche towards males (Sabers) only with her charm skill and NP with additional male damage. While that proves useful against male Sabers Gawain and Lancelot, it makes her close to useless against female Sabers like Mordred who is just as annoying as Gawain. Orion has nothing to tackle female servants but still has a respectable damage.

Secondly, there's the issue with stats. A grailed lvl 100 Euryale has base 9,517 atk and 12,889 HP, which is laughable in the face of a max ascended lvl 90 Orion with 11,107 atk and 14,553 HP. That reduces Euryale's damage and survivability and with no survival skills, meaning that if you cannot NP spam fast enough, she's gonna fall much faster that Orion would. Orion can still dish relatively higher damage and survive longer with her 1 turn dodge and 3 turn debuff resist. Not to mention it helps her against male Berserkers like Heracles in Okeanos.

For Euryale to work, you would need good Arts support like Waver and Tamamo (and Merlin) to spam her NP fast enough. Orion doesn't need them as much but still appreciates them anyways. So really it depends on what you have. Of course, 150k damage with minimal set up on Euryale againts a 50% def up Gawain is impressive, more than the 100k damage from male dmg up Orion (tested), it's not to say Euryale is better or worse. They just have their uses, and as a 5 star, Orion is leagues ahead in general gameplay.
