In a weaker incarnation, he pretty blew off Zeus' punchesand to be fair to Darkseid, even if he was getting rocked by Diana at the end of the ordeal he was still pretty well off.
He needed Grail to save his ass, 3 punches in and he was on the back foot.

Why must we always go from one extreme to the other? Carver is an idiot, but Darkseid is hardly a supreme level being. The entire plot of the Wonder Woman and his very goal currently demonstrates that he is anything BUT a supreme level being.Child DS was not killing Skyfather level beings unless I missed a comic? Teenage Darkseid managed to beat Zeus but it was explicitly through energy absorption. He was leeching Zeus' power the entire fight.
And this is mostly impressive because we are pre-supposing a Skyfather level similar to the beings we are a familiar with. Which is fair, but if we do the same for Grandmaster, the Challenger one-shotted him.
I give Darkseid the win personally simply because he's been around longer at this point and has much higher extremes such as Final Crisis obviously but the idea that it's not even close, based on the current portrayal is ridiculous.
I went overboard with the supreme level being lol. But this guy was destroying universes and had heaven pack up and leave. He was reborn but is still the same being though. So I guess we’ll agree that he wins but agree to disagree about the reasons why.

Challenger is a joke. Classic Grandmaster is/was more impressive (with a flick of his wrist, he one shot KOed Surfer/Classic Strange/Savage Hulk/Valkyrie/etc...). Darkseid should win.

EDIT :
Surfer wasn't there, Namor was. My bad.
