Yes yes 100 hearts. I'm sure my head is missing because a particular detail slipped my mind.

Well, Croco lived in Paradise, but that's after he became disillusioned with the whole piracy for One Piece concept. That's why he chose to conquer a paradise nation where he could rule with little to no opposition. Chances are like Moriah he probably met his defeat in the New World as well.

His performance during the war didn't really put him majorly below anyone else. If anything, I think Moriah was certainly more useless than him, even after his powers were given the chance to create a giant plot hole.
