i could see Thanos one shotting a few of these fools and even raising up a shield during battle but i also see one of them cheap shotting him once the gloves are off after thanos kills, Flash, red tornado , Fire storm..
Thanos would have to go all out and not screw around to make it to the best fighters who may be immune to his most exoctic attacks which he wont even run through them all before his shield shatters, Wonder woman superman or orion tackle him and open up a can of whoop @$$..
in my scenario superman, GL, Flash, Firestorm, go down before Thanos gets his poop pushed in by Wonder woman strangling him with her lasso, Orion punching him back and fourth and MM phasing through his head...
Bull, she is a warrior trained with her bracers blocking his blast.. if anything superman would be the least significant due to his CIS personality and would be as much responsible as Thanos when his team mates go down..
anyways.. Thanos does his Time mind Sync Warp for the win.
the team better take him down before he solos with said attack
Seriously though, the team has a good chance at beating thanos, but Flash isn't going to be fodder. I see the people that have no choice but to fight thanos h2h getting beaten eventually, but the long range attackers will be the ones that will stay awake.
Thanos is not one shoting Firestorm. And to one shot the Flash you have to hit him first, and with no bad writing, PIS, etc, Thanos isn't coming close to hitting the Flash if the Flash is going all out. Thanos will get hit by an infinite mass punch from the flash and 100 reality shattering/planet busting punches from superman and could be speed blitzed from others on this team too. If the team is going all out, Thanos doesn't even have time to react before he is speed blitzed from every direction. (and MM uses telepathy to coordinate the attack as well).
This isn't even taking Orion into account and his box.
This fight is a complete curbstomp bording on spite.

we dont use PIS but we do Use CIS here.. so i dont see any character operating differently then they normally would due to morals and overall limited knowledge of their opponents
Firestorm would be one shot. I'm curious though.. what feats of firestorm give you the impression that he could last with Thanos?
Please list for me the fights where Flash has used infinite mass punches right away to an opponent he's never facced before. Hopefully this "person" is on or around Thanos level as well. Please tell me the times this has occcured.
Supes is taken out in one or two shots by Thanos and again won't be blizting like you're claiming. If you have any scans of Supes super speed blizting an opponent right away that he's never met before.
Please list for me those times and we'll see if this is a likely scenerio
It really depends on how serious Thanos gets right away.. We've seen him ONE shot KILL High Heralds previously. His weakest version to date One shot killed Warlock. Recently when he was pissed he one shot killed Drax (Avatar of life). IF he's that serious.. I certainly don't jest and Supes is 2 or 3 shot at the most. If he's not serious and clowing on people... I would say about 7 should do the trick. The point is neither Flash nor Supes have attacked an opponent they have never faced before with a super speed blitz right away at full power. Please show me them EVER doing so and we'll go from there.
Not per se disagreeing with your reasoning, I just want to point out that neither the TI version or Drax nor Warlock have a tenth of Superman's durability. You can make an argument of when Thanos killed Surfer though...
well drax is just a meta and as far as we know being the avatar of life is just symbolic, he doenst have special powers because of that. AW was powerfull indeed, but not the most durable of the heralds. thanos performances against SS are more impressive and a better indication he shouldnt take too long to pummel SM down.
