We didn't see all his master-killing in the Jedi purge, and we didn't know much about Maul's standing in respect to other sith yet. A lot of people assumed Qui-Gon was really powerful too, which didn't really hold up.
Honestly there's a good reason Disney has declared all of the previous EU (minus TCW) non- canon.
It's because of things like this, there wasn't enough collaboration with the writers of the eu, and the creators of the movies (or should I say creator).
But now there is.
That being said I'm going to pretty much avoid "Machine Vader" Versus battles until he gets some New Official Canon feats. Which he will within the next year.

I hope Rebels will not pump Vader like some stupid EU writers did before in old canon, because Filoni and his crew are very consistent in this matters, they will certainly make Vader consistent with his movie performances.
He will get new feats. In Rebels and with the Sith Lord novel out next year.
Filoni so far has just talked about Vader being really powerful. He seems to respect the character. But don't worry Marco, at some point Maul will return in Rebels too, and he will also get new feats 😉
