'They simply shrug off the attacks of other gods with a raucous laugh'
There's one.
According to my Space Marine codex, Terminators are invincible.
I am not joking. It's literally there, black on white, at the end of their lore entry.
Terminators are invincible, they are unstoppable and they never yield.
Terminators > Ork gods.
And this, children, is what happens when you take the propaganda-tastic entries in each codex at face value. From a practical standpoint, this is because
GW's writers want every thirteen year old who buys a codex to think their army is the coolest.
Personally I look at each codex as some form of in-universe propaganda. That stuff about Gork and Mork laughing off Chaos Gods is what Orks tell each other about the subject whenever the Chaos Gods come up in conversation, because of course Orks would think that way. But all this is from a mortal perspective, just like all the talk about Tzeentch having a maze, Nurgle having a garden, etc. In reality, the gods are forces of nature, and any of these descriptions are just puny mortal minds trying to fathom the unfathomable.
Not to mention that, if any kind of logic at all is applied to these warp deities and how they work, it only stands to reason that the amount of power each one has at any given time would be in constant flux, as their worshipers and feeders constantly wax and wane, not just in number, but in strength and influence.
