Faster than almost any marvel hero (even faster than he was before),
Not really.
He can fly at supersonic speeds in Earth's atmosphere. In Earth's atmosphere he usually relys on the power of flight provided by the solar treatments he had (hence the glowing energy trail). In space he can exceed light speed thanks to the Nega Bands.
There are several heroes as fast or faster flying as him on Earth.
However his reaction speed is not that awesome. He has enhanced reaction speed but it is not anywhere near those of speedsters (Speed Demon) or Spiderman or even Thor for instance. His reaction speed was only slightly enhanced from that of a Kree Warrior (who exceeds normal human physical abilities - mainly on strength).
The Solar treatments and Nega Bands have done little to amplify his reaction speed.
able to one shot enemies that the Mighty Avengers can't (although Sentry was not acting),
He one shot a robot that was a writer plot device to make him look good.
Most of the Avengers shown are at least and probably more powerful than him.
To say they were struggling against the robot was a travesty as they would have easily taken it apart if he could punch through it.
energy blasts that can blow up planets (he has done this...).
When has he done this ?
Even before his relaunch (as a transformed Skrull let us not forget), he demonstrated Photon (solar) energy blasts that could could through 3" steel plate and that could do serious damage to beings like Ronan the Accuser but destroying planets is a whole different level.
The negabands did not grant the ability to project energy blasts, that was solely from his Solar powered blasts.
We did not see Dr Minerva, who wore the nega bands as well, display energy projecting powers.

"The Kree nega-bands converted Mar-Vell's psionic energy into strength (he could now lift 10 tons), a high degree of imperviousness to harm, and the power to fly. They also allowed Mar-Vell to exist unprotected in outer space without having to breathe."
His imperviousness to harm was enough to resist some energy weapons and automatic gunfire and to withstand blows from beings in the 75 tonne Marvel strength range without significant harm (he would bleed but he could easily continue fighting)
His strength level reached 15 tonnes with the combination of the band and solar treatments but this seems a bit low for some of actions that he has performed (40 tonnes might be nearer the mark).
I know he is nowhere near as strong as Diana. But don't you think that by using his cosmic awareness he can take some fights (if not the majority)?
Yep, he has less than 1% of Wonder Woman's strength. She is dozens to hundreds of times faster in reaction speed, she has superior durability to physical blows (and her bracelets to deflect his photon beams) and she is a better fighter.
Even with the cosmic awareness, he has virtually no chance to win.
