1. He was credited with being a powerful shinobi in different instances. Iruka commented that he was the strongest Hokage in history. Orochimaru admitted that he would have lost if Hiruzen was just 10 years younger and that's not even his prime. Monkey King Enma even stated how rusty Hiruzen was even in his old age. Not to mention some databook claims. Whether him being the strongest Hokage or kage in history is false, Hiruzen was very well one the strongest shinobi. He didn't earn the title of "God of Shinobi" for no reason. All other people to have earned that title were extraordinary shinobi.

2. Hiruzen wasn't noted for his speed, even though he could battle and intercept Tobirama who was known for his speed. If he was in his prime he'd be even faster. This is an old and rusty Hiruzen remember.

3. Tobirama has no kg or hiden techniques, so are you telling he has "shitty" techniques? How about Minato? Freak even Tsunade has some nifty techniques. Don't let your hate cloud your judgement.
