Hmmm...
Current Strange doesn't have the edge on Z that he would have had before...
Ultron is *singularly* tough, but Braniac is the beast-king of ubiquitous existence/attacks; still, Ultron can take a beating...

I'm inclined to think it's a narrative split. The real test is between Ultron and Braniac... Strange and Z are a more or less coin toss, relatively speaking.

OH - My Bad.
Just realized I glossed over the "2 weeks prep".
Braniac has the advantage over Ultron with any proper prep time.
Braniac/Zatanna: about 7-8/10, with a 2-3 win arc as a nod of respect to Strange, and to Ultron being able to tank pretty well.

Well... Zatanna with prep also destroyed Zor and was altering reality. Has strange prepped for anything decent since his fall from grace?
Like I said: a nod of respect for the lingering aspects of former glory. Strange is still comparatively formidable, but not nearly as much as before. Where Z might out-"muscle" him, so to speak, I'd still give him the edge for finesse and over-all meta-knowledge. Again, he'd still be more likely to lose, but it wouldn't be a slam, necessarily. Hence, the couple of wins as a nod to "age and treachery"...
