Cyprien is much faster, more durable, more flexible, can heal himself, and actually causes the opponent fear when brought to the field of battle... whereas, whenever I see Sudema being brought against me, I usually think "sweet, there's an easy 140pts to kill..."
And of course, if you draft Sonya in your army with Cyprien, he is almost as good at "auto kill" against many units on a 18-20 roll, compared to Sudema's 17-20 roll....
The only big difference is that Cyprien can't chill touch a soulborg... But then again, against someone like Q9, Q10, etc... Sudema would NEVER get within 4 spaces of them anyway, as they would range her to death long before that happened...
I wanted to like Sudema, and she's had some good kills in our games, but at 140pts, she's too expensive for a low life, low defense, slow moving, bondless hero.
It's really too bad that the entire Heroes of Trollsford set is pretty worthless, IMHO.
Sudema is cool thematically, but just not worth her points.
