"Vali fought at least on par with Crom Cruach without using Satan Lucifer Smasher"

Re-read the fight, Vali was clearly getting the worst of it, and Crom wasn't even fully transformed as a dragon. Vali had to use the Emperio Juggernaut Drive from the get go and Crom dominated it. With Dragon Maofication Vali was not weaker and was faster, but Crom was still giving him a beating.

Not to mention Ddraig confirms that he is stronger than they are. Obviously not Ophis levels of stronger but still stronger than them. However this does not mean that Ddraig and Albion cannot get more powerful and with Ingvild Issei gets a massive powerup.

Fenrir was said to be of similar power to Ddraig and Albion but not exactly the same. Ddraig did beat Typhon but he didn't do it without effort. Crom's feats are easily comparable, having matched Vali's Maofication form, matched Dulio's Balance Breaker and having a punching force similar to Issei's Infinity Blaster pre-Amritra.

That said the fight between Crom and Ddraig will not be easily determinable.
