Hiruzen was trained from age 6 by Hashirama and Tobirama, at age 70 he fought Hiruzen who remarked that if only 10 years younger Hiruzen would take out him and the Edo's he summoned(Hashi and Tobi somewhat weakened) easily, Hiruzen had knowledge of all Jutsu within Konoha including Hiden and knew how to counter and defeat them.. he even knew how to use all the non-hiden and non kkg jutsu plus he invented his own Jutsu. He did not have a KKG and did not use Senjutsu and was not an incarnate yet he EARNED his title of God of Shinobi being the third person EVER to get that title, after Hagoromo and Hashirama. Danzo who was fully prepared to fight Sasuke then "Madara" afterwards didn't dare attempt to fuck with Hiruzen personally as he always had to manipulate events or have assassins try to do so which still failed. Madara Uchiha while he was still alive in his little tree basement never even attempted to mess with Hiruzen. Hiruzen was the first to and easily deduced the make-up of the TTB's. He was also known as the Professor for his intellect and knowledge. He also had TWO tenures as Hokage and only at age 70 did he finally die(sacrificing himself albeit) He had mastery and usage of all elements. Kishi said he was strongest in his prime, so he is strongest in his prime. You readers/fans can say whatever you want but it changes nothing and it just ends up being your opinion vs the writers fact. You don't like it?? Suck it up buttercup theres more shit in the world to worry about.. such as reality.
