Minato isn't poorly repersented, he's just not a god.

He was regarded as a legend among normal men, and that much remains true. But during the war he's been put up against a god monster (Ten-Tails), a god (Jinchuriki Obito), and a god monster king (Jinchuriki Madara). Minato's only fault is being relevantly normal against gods.
