You're right, don't know why I didn't come up with that. I was even wondering about point 1 myself before the fight even started. Point 2 and 3 was within the battle itself, so not so strong, but I guess it means that the combo was flashy but actually weaker. So I guess, when thought in context, Hades' superiority was exaggerated in ep 117.
Spoiler for ep 118:
Though, when seeing Laxus' even fight with Hades, Erza did acknowledge Laxus' superior strength, that she seems to not even know of.
And yay! for Cana's appearance, I laughed at marshmallow man
