outclass
Leave far behind
To outclass is to be so clearly superior that comparison seems unfair: The visiting team was completely outclassed.
The word implies not just winning but dominating—belonging to a different class entirely.
Someone outclassed in a negotiation or debate has been thoroughly bested.
