One of the best shooting markers that I have ever owned. That being said, they need to spend more time on their quality control before shipping the markers out the door. The anodizing was very thin on some areas from the factory and the eye covers had to be bent to go flush with the marker. The LCD also had a line of dead pixels from the factory but that was replaced by vanguard service. The marker was very easy to maintain and shot very well. The accessories that came with the marker were a bit of overkill, but fun nonetheless.

I first saw the Creed at HB 2010. My first thought was "what the heck is this"? I listened to them as they said it would shoot better than my ego so I said let me try it. I usedone for one practice and can say that it shoots better than my ego, dm, and timmy. Also with Vanguard's customer service, I have never had a problem getting parts or advice on how to take care of it. for the price, it is definetely one of the best marker deals around.

i recently switched to the vanguard creed for sponsorship reasons. i traded my 2010 dye NT for the creed plus cash so ignore the "amount paid" section above.
i was iffy at first as the looks didnt appeal to me. they didnt look as sharp and refined as i would have liked from a high end marker. little did i know that when i shot it my judgements of the creed changes completely. this was the smoothest poppit i had ever shot. smoother than any ego out there. it felt as though i was shooting my dm9. this gun has the efficiency and ease of maintinence as an ego but the smoothness and accuracy of a matrix. the more and more i shot it, the milling grew on me. great job vanguard
pros-
light
no kick
no barrel rise
very smooth
very accurate
cons-
asa is hard to use when hands are oily
milling isnt refined as it could be, alot could be taken off
grips feel cheap and wear very easily, already on my second pair.

Price: I traded for this marker with a vicious GEO.
I have bounced around in high end markers falling towards dye because of comfort and sound. NEVER again will I leave vanguard as a company. The creed has very elegant swoops down the side and is very sexy in my opinion. It shoots better than it looks, zero barrel rise and smoothness compared to a DM. The gun has a very nice "point and shoot" feel. It has great stance as far as the reg placement. I have never had issues with running on short on air even after shooting 10 pods in a game with plenty to spare. I have only had excellent customer service experience with this company as well. I had slight problems so the head tech went on skype to walk me through any issues I have and taught me more about the gun as well as far as tuning and troubleshooting.
Cons: the grips are weak and flimsy I feel. i have heard of getting shot in the screen cover and it will shatter.
OVERALL: excellent marker very light and easy to use. excellent board with great features and the 100,000 shots per charge is pretty accurate in my mind. do not hesitate to go through vanguard as soon enough they will take over the world. PE and dye have some serious competition coming there way.

I switched to the Creed due to sponsorship reasons. I was considering the gun anyways because I have had an interest in them since they came out. I am I back/mid insert player and I shoot a lot of paint. I was worried at first about being able to shoot enough paint, my worries went away after playing a game of 7-man dumping 11 pods and a hopper. Needless to say I was impressed. The gun is so smooth, and when you get this thing ripping it doesn't even feel like there is something shooting in front of you! The Creed is fast, accurate, and efficient, what more could anyone want? I also love the packaging the gun comes in and the support! Perfect gun for any format. Very nice job Vanguard.

Disregard the price! Thats all it would let me put in. Plus my starts went hay wire. I give the Creed a straight across the board 5 star in all categories.
This weekend four of our teams participated in the NEXL and NEPL event in Maynard, Mass. 36 players with 20 using Creeds. These markers, with our back players in both formats averaged 10/13 (1500/1800 sots on a 4300 cool fill) pods of paint per match. With the air efficiency our Creeds maintained and gave the ability of our players to shoot 3/4 pods extra per match, we were able to place two of the four teams in fourth place Division 2 Open Class podium spots.
Now I've used and teched all high end markers and played in multiple style formats. Under the extreme conditions of X-Ball I have never seen a marker capable of achieving efficiency as the Creeds have.
Now that I have had time to recuperate from our two day event I have time to clean and inspect the markers.
Starting with 100% Battery Charge Saturday morning and playing NEXL X-Ball then Sunday NEPL 7 Man NPPL Format.
A conservative estimate, my Vanguard Creed shot "FIVE" Cases of paint at a minimum this weekend. Taking into consideration that the marker was not off all through out the day.
100% Battery Charge - "Five" Cases of Paint - 11% Battery Drain (89%) over a two day event the Statement of 100,000 shots per charge is very accurate.
At no time was the marker re-charged during the course of the weekend. No Batteries are equally the same. Some may get more and some less but the claim of 100,000 shots per charge can reasonably be assumed as "Accurate."
Awesome job Vanguard. We are definitely impressed.

This gun really suprised me, i had an 08 ego before this and i loved it more than anything. I thought i would be shooting eclipse for the rest of my life, but than The Creed changed my mind. My team picked up a sponsership from them, i thought oh what the hell lets see wat these guns are about. And from the very first day till now i have fell in love with this gun. It never lets me down and i was surprised by how it had no kick from the moment i picked it up. Vanguard is a new company, but i can tell you that Eclipse and Dye finally have some competition. The takeover of Vanguard Creeds is iminent.

I got my creed for sponsorship reasons and it let me start off by saying this thing is amazing. I have shot all kinds of egos and spool valves and this far surpasses all of them! When i got my creed it shot amazing, but one day i fully charged it and then the next day it was dead !
I contacted eric aka shootinpoo, sen in my creed and he put in a new barrel among other things and sent it right back to me within 5 days! The customer service is amazing, but i do have to say that the creed could use an overall better finish. It's nothing big, but compared to other markers it could be better put together. For example, better grips, feedneck, parts fitting together better. but other than that, the creed is a great investment!

Price: Traded my Ego 9 for it
Really smooth gun, once tuned it shoots ropes and is so efficient. Comes with lots of nice extras and parts that add to the value. Very easy to change settings and adjust the gun.
Pros: Lightweight, Smooth, Extra goods that come with gun, no kick, nice board.
Cons: Not reliable. First got my gun and went to charge it and i had a friend board. So i got a new board. First game I use my creed. Dive into snake and barrel snaps into two pieces. So i was sent a new barrel.
That being said customer Service at Vanguard is great. I am not trying to write a bad review because i love my gun its just i would like to see the reliability increase
!
