Sekiryuu the fact is that Issei before figth Crom should take damage by Kiba and other members of Rias's team, i have hope that Xenovia can figth Strada for all match because if Issei take shoots by both Durandal 2 and Gram he could lose before the figth with Crom. The holy ligthing dragon of Akeno and the Lint's holy purple flames can real damge him even if he used the DXD. So when Issei faces Crom he should be tired and damaged, probably Crom could give to Issei time enough for regian some stamina and summoned Ddraig.
