What's bothering me is that Kanan and Ezra had no idea who Vader was when they encountered him. I think they would've heard of him by now, the whole galaxy knows him.
Vader letting them escaped only further showed his mastery on tactics and foresight.
IMO it only made him look even more badass in the long run, since it led to him soloing a fleet.

Except Kallus and Vader both anticipated the Ghost Crew's escape for orbit, as shown by Vader nonchantly asking to prepare his shuttle and Kallus explaining to the officer what's going on. The plan was to track the Ghost ship back to the Rebel fleet to deliver a crippling blow - which Vader did. Vader would have ended it all right there but he wanted the Ghost Crew to survive due to Ahsoka (which he wanted in custody to lure out other Jedi).

You're assuming "getting away from him" is referring to their fight when it could also refer to the final minutes of the episode where the Ghost crew got away from Vader in a pretty PIS-heavy fashion.
Based on logic and not being retarded, we can conclude he's referring to the latter instead of the actual lightasaber fight.

Based on what does he mean "both?" Because based on the fight itself (in which Vader is canonically described as toying with them), the fact Vader doesn't rush to stop the Ghost from leaving but rather calmly walks away, the fact Vader doesn't try to TK the ship despite it being well within his canon TK abilities, and the fact Vader clearly anticipated the Ghost's escape from orbit, I think it's "clear" he's referring to the final instance.
Nothing in the lightsaber fight "diminishes" Vader in the first place, while the ending of the space battle currently does. In one instance, Vader's clearly the superior, while in the other, the Ghost crew does, in fact, outsmart the Dark Lord. There's a clear comparison. Given the show is made for young kids, and that this fact should be obvious to them, and then the fact you don't understand that, means: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBPqksG9nbA

In reference to his battle with Ezra and K man. Characters always can do more or act smarter. He clearly tried to kill Ezra. He wasn't letting them knock him around. Vader is the superior to them but he should be well above them. It should be like he disarms and overwhelms the both of them easily whereas they both kept recovering to help the other to allow them the chance to escape. That's a low showing for someone like Vader. These two are scrubs compared to him.
