===Analysis===
{{analysis}}
Creidne is a substitute unit available for the entirety of ''Genealogy''{{'}}s second generation, and her best trait is her [[Follow-Up]] skill. Thanks to Follow-Up, Creidne can double enemies, and she does so reliably, because she uses swords – one of the lightest weapon types in the game. Creidne's base speed is also high, so even though her growth is not very high, she meets the necessary [[attack speed]] thresholds to double most enemies she faces. Moreover, Creidne has an A rank in swords, so she can use every sword that is not a Holy Weapon. While being a substitute unit prevents her from inheriting powerful swords, Creidne can usually clear a significant portion of the arena, so she can typically afford good swords.
 
Creidne's most significant downside is that she is an infantry unit. Infantry units perpetually fall behind on ''Genealogy''{{'}}s sprawling maps, and Creidne has no way of catching up without the [[Leg Ring]], a highly contested item that most players give to [[Seliph]] to let him reach and seize castles faster. Aside from that, Creidne's durability is rather poor, because her resistance is terrible and her defense is on the low side. This lack of durability prevents her from engaging too many enemies on enemy phase, as she has a good chance of dying in the process. She is quite good in the arena, but her lack of durability can prevent her from winning some fights, and she is highly dependent on having a good sword, as her only skill is Follow-Up. These drawbacks make Creidne one of the worst substitute units, as while her combat is not terrible, she struggles to get to the action and cannot engage too many enemies when she does reach them.
 
Creidne also suffers from being largely inferior to her brother, [[Dalvin]], as Dalvin has slightly higher defense and HP, enough AS to double most enemies, and the [[Vantage]] skill, which Creidne does not have. Creidne compensates by having a bit more speed and slightly higher resistance, as well as access to the [[Miracle Sword]], but Dalvin doubles most enemies anyway and the difference in resistance is minuscule. These differences seem minor, but when added up and taken as a whole, they make Dalvin the better investment target.
