Smallpox ravaged native populations across the Americas. The wars were effectively already won before the Europeans even showed up.

And of the ones that were meaningfully competitive, local alliances played a bigger role. Tenochtitlan only fell to the Spanish due to tens of thousands of local allies that jumped on the chance to take down the Aztecs. The Inca got wiped out by smallpox and civil war prior the Spanish arrival, they were a shell by the time the Spanish showed up and even they needed local alliances to win.
