The supreme being of DC (in-universe) stalemates THOTI.
(if that's the Presence, then so be it)
In Marvel, only Classic Beyonder either stalemates or wins. (it's a debate)
Anything below gets stomped.
That aside:
TOAA & the Presence are nothing alike.
If I had to pin someone to stalemate TOAA in DC,
it would be the Morrison avatar in Animal Man,
or any other representative avatars of the writers/artists.
That's what TOAA is in Marvel.

Death and Adam Warlock both left the multiverse and escaped Thanos.
Thanos clearly lacked omniscience
as he didn't know about it until Adam Warlock came back.
That's not exactly accurate good friend.
Adam & Death didn't "escape."
Adam wasn't absorbed due to him being outside the influence of space-time,
and also because he's intrinsically part, and yet apart from reality.
Thanos literally explained that "This saved you" to Adam.
Although Thanos also told him he could wipe him out right there on the spot.
Adam explained,
Thanos wouldn't do that,
cause he would want a witness for his grand gesture. (re-creating everything)
That aside, the second Adam appeared Thanos instantly knew where Adam was and what he was doing before Warlock told him.
It's just that Thanos absorbed all of space-time in a frenzy,
and since Adam is special, he would've had to single him out to join the absorption.

Death on the other hand is also apparently not affected by space-time's demise.
I remember one of her alternates surviving after their respective universe was erased.
On the other hand Starlin used the reasoning of her existing outside reality.
Imo, Starlin simply had his most attached characters to Thanos (Adam & Death)
be part of the dramatic crescendo.
Which is:
Adam talking Thanos into re-creating all reality.
Death giving Thanos what he always wanted, her attentive affection via a kiss.
