Unlike what is insinuated by reams of ridiculous military sci-fi novels in which space marines somehow even the odds, if any alien has the ability to come here, then our doom is appointed the moment they formulate the intention to eradicate us.
They don't need to, but they would...because, as you note, they're just that good at shit. I do, though, think that you're ignoring plenty of great examples where a technologically superior enemy gets absolutely trounced by primitives. One hopes, for the alien invaders sake, that they don't forget similar lessons their own history might have imparted. I bet you could suddenly remember them if I said "the united states"....
Bring it ET, earth goes hard - there's nothing left on this rock without a mound of wrecked bodies beneath it.
carefully note that superior enemy almost always wins in the end unless the primitives are strongly supported by another technologically superior ally. without an ally, the options primitive has two choices:
die alone, or die at the same time as any brief flash of their resistance glory dies.
