I might get flack for mentioning it as an example, but the Chroma Conclave from Critical Role is actually a good example for something of the sort.
It was immediately clear after one round or two that the party was hopelessly outmatched and the encounter pivoted on escaping and saving as many people as possible (which meant very little but oh well) while evading four fuckoff dragons.
Just "I'm stronger, you die" without context or escape is bullshit GMing.
