Magneto rewires the the bots like he did the sentinels and dethrones Ultron. 😛
Seriously though, if the guy has the range and fine control to take command of several dozen (hundreds even?) of missiles at once, and redirect them at various ship targets, I don't see the Ultron bots doing very well. Their best hope is getting off some lucky energy shots and hopefully scoring a hit, but we have also seen that Mags can react fast enough to respond to bullets, and has used metal to make shields in the past as well. Remember, Magneto has pretty insane range on his powers. He doesn't even need to see targets to control them, as evidenced by his control of the sentinels, and when he pulled the entire panic room out of the Whitehouse in DoFP.
Don't think he even needs to see them all really. Based on the submarine lift, the iron extraction in X2, the panic room pull, and the rewiring and controlling of the sentinels, he doesn't need to physically see things to control them. It appears to be more of a case of his powers allowing him to "feel" any metal in the area.
Edit: To get some idea of his range, he was able to apply his powers to the entire length of the Golden Gate Bridge, which is over a mile and a half long, IIRC.
Magneto should win unless he gets hit with blaster fire. I don't know if Magneto can control that many metallic objects that each tries to do it's own thing. It's not a question of power but rather of multi tasking. If Magneto can control all of them then he wins without issue. If even one of them hits him with a blast then Magneto can get royally screwed.

Nope, he takes them all down without even a second thought.

He could potentially mass crush more than half the army in one go. I know we have never seen him do something like that onscreen, but then he has never needed to. What we do know however is that he could lift and move the Golden Gate Bridge, which is over 1,5 miles long and apparently weighs nearly 900k tons (according to its 75th anniversary newsletter). If he can apply enough upward force to lift that much mass over such a large area, he can do it downwards as well, especially with gravity aiding him.

Well like I said, it's not his power I'm questioning but his ability to multi-task. Crushing the ultron-bots is nothing compared to lifting the Golden Gate Bridge. So he should win as long as none of the bots is able to hit him with a shot. Actually, did the Ultron-bots even have blaster capabilities? I forgot.

Look at this utter stupidity
