An interesting theory. However, I wouldn't say that she's obviously NOT super powerful. I mean, she runs an interdimensional casino where all the patrons are villains, has a version of Daybreaker as a slave, and may or may not have taken over rule of her Equestria from an alternate Pony of Shadows. For all we know she may also have manipulated Stygian's dream in order to lure Luna to her dimensions; if not, she may well be in league with the Pony of Shadows, and I doubt he joins forces with just anyone.

Perhaps you're referring to the fact that we've seen no overt displays of power on Eris' part, ala Discord turning Ponyville into a city of pure chaos. Personally, I would say that she's a more calculating chaos-bringer; she's willing to wait to bring about truly devastating chaos, as opposed to just throwing everything out of wack immediately. The fact that she used the Staff of Sacanus to steal Luna's powers is just sensible; Discord's demonstrated no ability to steal pony's powers (apart from temporarily removing body parts), so why would Eris have those abilities?
