It was more a question of the durability of said characters that I've been reading today, as well as figuring out a placement for Korvac. It was going to be just Ultron vs Korvac, and then Juggernaut has been a hot topic, plus I didn't feel good about just Ultron vs Korvac. Not so much about Juggernaut/Ultron vs him either, but then again I just read Academy.
Basically, Korvac has to knock these characters out, or destroy Ultron to win. Ultron with his shields and primary adamantium and trans level power. Obviously he is way more powerful, but challenges arise.
Plus, as powerful as Korvac was, he wasn't impervious to harm. Though he was never whittled down enough, he was still able to be injured.
If we add three sponges with decent output as well, it'd seem a good test as a placement to Korvac.
IMHO, he still beats them then. His raw power output is no joke. If people disagree I'm fine with that too (I saw a post on Comicvine a while back while googling for some scans and the poster had me doubting Korvac's power level so people here may have the same views).

Spite...rage spite...team has no prayer against Korvac.
Granted, 616 Korvac never demonstrated what he could really do (so he has little in the way of bonafide feats; he did one shot kill the Collector from Earth while the Collector was in space though); the famous What If showed what he was truly capable of...
He one shot killed Grandmaster and the Inbetweener (now while not canon as per forum rules, his exploits during the What If in question was mentioned in the official handbook)...
All signs point to Korvac being beyond Skyfather (during the original Korvac saga, it was continually emphasized that he was superior to Odin)...
Worse case senario its a stalemate as the team simply cant muster enough offense to kill Korvac...
It took a bomb capable of destroying one-fifth of the universe to take out Korvac during the storyline that featured Grandmaster and Death; this team doesnt have that of offensive output...
Scratch that; team has no prayer against Korvac...
Korvac grabbed Surfer and effortlessly melted his silver skin off of him; Korvacs matter manip trumps anything this team could do to defend themselves with...
The whole intention behind this thread was that Korvac was limited to just using raw power to win.
If I didn't want him to drain Ultron, I certainly don't want him to matter manip him either. Though everyone has their debatable defenses towards it, it's best to take it away entirely.
It destroyed him. That's not to say it took that much power to destroy him, it just was too much power outright.
Ah...well in that case then I cant make a definitive argument for Korvac winning then; I would think he has the power to harm them with Brute Force, but I cant back it up with anything of substance...
How highly (or lowly) do you rate his killing of The Collector?

Guys that version of the Collector was having a heart attack having to deal with a pretty unimperssive team of Avengers. He literally looked like the typical geriatric that you see in those "I'm having chest pains" commercials for Lifeline.
Korvac struck and killed him during his heart attack.

You know, I get that, but he did the exact same thing to a fully healthy Grandmaster in the What If...
And yes, I know that What If isnt canon, but I just think that this What If is a special case where the goal was to demonstrate Korvacs power and how dangerous he truly was...
