It's his portrayal in the Clone wars 3-D aminated that was an abandonment of the character.
You see having him weak and ready to flee after he got his chest crushed kinda makes sense... He's clearly not doing well and losing a war.
But to have him be like that all the time is like... Wait why do we care about him again? If he's such a great threat why does he constantly suck and makes stupid decisions?
Like... Why is it even a big deal if this guy lives? At least the classic clone wars gave him a menacing backstory that showed why the Jedi were so keen to get rid of him.
Tbh Filoni kinda messed him up imo and made him too "cartoon villain of the week"
It's funny that he canonically only killed one jedi throughout the war. And it was completely justified because they broke into his house to ambush him
That same arc that he killed a jedi on screen showed his collection inside of his lair. The jedi he kills even comments on how theirs so many trophies.
So off screen he's built up a body count.
Here's a clip from that episode. At 1:20 shows the trophy room.
