Just because you're stronger than one person doesn't mean it's an instantaneous curbstomp. And just because a being is stronger than you doesn't mean it's not possible for you to win. You can win against another being by using smart tactics or using adequate preparations. If you're stronger it might mean you beat someone in the rank under you 7 out of 10 times. Don't act like some beings are undefeatable by someone below them.

And I kind of question whether JD is Ddraig's and Albion's full power when they were in their full and former glory. But putting that aside, JD only lasts for a little while. Vali is not Albion. And he can only use JD's power for a few minutes. His demonic powers and stamina would be heavily consumed due to him keeping the negative effects of JD at bay. So if he was only at that level for a few minutes then of course he would have trouble with Fenrir, a being in the Top 10, who's at that level regularly. JD speaks nothing of Albion's and Ddraig's power when they were in the Top 10 and had their bodies. Because right now Ddraig and Albion are sealed in Sacred Gears and it's their possessors that access their powers. Now we can say all of those in the Top 10 can go up against each other on equal footing(or at least most of them). Now if you gained power equal to Indra and you faced a being in the Top 10 that he was stronger than but the person is still powerful and can put up a good fight. You have the advantage because you're stronger and he's putting up a good fight but you can tell he's going to lose in the end. But guess what? Turns out you're only that powerful for 5 minutes and you revert back to your regular form and suddenly because of that super-powerful form, all your energy is drained and you can't do anything. You're screwed because the guy you were just overwhelming a minute ago now has the advantage.
