Can someone explain why he cant beat them i know he is fast but hes not very strong or smart.
This should clarify Why flash is more powerful than many other heroes
Some flash Speeds (not top speed)
Speed of thought+running speed.
500,000 people @ chongjin Base a longtime military target
Distance to safe point 35mi (round trip 70 mi)
Carries 1 sometimes 2 people at a time.
Total time per person 2^-11or .000000000001 per person required to run 70 miles.
Movement speed Approaching light speed.
Comparison: wally vs human
person top running speed 27.45 mph (.0007265 mps) so slow :(
light speed (299792458 mps)
Wally is 412559642100 times faster than a human
m=m01−v2c2−−−−−√
Δt′=Δt1−v2c2−−−−−−√
412559642100x Δt'm1->LS 412559642100^5
Impact force = m0/SQr -(V2/E2) 412351566kg mass punch 13915X harder than a FULL power Hit from hulk traveling at 500 MPH backed by 1000LBS and 200 Ton STr
His is also moving at the speed of thought as he has to pick up people and move them safety to the other side of the river requiring concentration levels of 4-5 on the standard 1-7 MUCC
MUCC concentration level used while studying 5-6 1/6th is 1.6666667 appx or 16.667 % leaving 83.3333
412559642100x83.333
343799564100 times faster than human though
1 Flash hour is 343799564100 times more productive than a human hour (Potentially produced work)

Speed force. It gives Flash a bunch of ridiculous powers that make him really, really hard to beat. Some examples:
And that's just the basics. Plus, he is pretty smart... Barry Allen is a scientist and Wally is very intelligent as well.
its because hes way faster than them and the force he can generate from a strike is comparable to any of the heavy hitters due to his ftl speed. also some versions like wally west are really powerful. he can travel time and steal speed from anyone or anything in motion or stopped around hi,self. turning even other ftl speedsters into statues living but unable to move. plus infinite mass punch which is his strongest attack is the force of a supernova.

@Doc_gametheory: ANSWER: Absolute PIS. That's why.
oh sorry edit: I thought the title said: Why can flash be beaten by so many people stronger than him. LOL
Well his Rogues have weapons that are meant to fight him so yeah, it is not really PIS
Hmm, if Flash is so strong. Why is he considered second class to people like Martian Manhunter, Superman, Hal Jordan, Wonder Woman, ect? How come he never saves the day like them? Flash is not suppose to be as strong as people made him. I need to get to the bottom of this. It does not make sense to me how he is so powerful here, but in the comics he barely looks like that. Someone help me get to the bottom of this please.
Because having unlimited top speed and instant acceleration is alot more powerful than many people realize is the real answer to this question.
I doubt the original creators of the Flash thought about just how powerful someone with that lack of limitations would be. Makes sense the Flashes got more powerful over time as writers started realizing what they should be able to do with such small limitations on their abilites.
Gotta be sweet to be a Speed force user.

I think he is like Thor or MartianManhunter , he is supposed to be ridiculous powerful but writers tend to make him use a little part of his potential

It just depends on if his morals are on,If he was going crazy and didn't care if he killed someone, he could run through them by vibrating and just watch them explode,because he scrambled their molecules on the the way out.Plus he can do a stuff like steal your speed leaving you motionless, a second from someone without his speed couldn't really out think him,sense he can think at close to light speed.He should be able to do much more in comics,But then again he does. He is pretty far up the dc list,but him taking on people like supes and manhunter, I don't think so.
Because apparently if a character can speed blitz, no one can touch them thus they win the fight automatically. Which I think is kinda dumb, because then whats the point of battles then? You might just wanna ban guys with super speed all together then...or at least have a rule limiting the people with super speed, because according to what is posted on the battles "speed blitz" "speed blitz" "speed blitz" its an auto win.

I see, I don't think he was meant to be as powerful as them, There A level while he is B level or even C.

On the Justice League he doesn't even look powerful though.

Yes, I agree. I don't think he should be able to take them on either. He's B level at best.

I agree. Speed blitzing ruins the battle forums It's okay if for example if you say "Flash is more faster than Superman, so he will get more hits in, but that's not the case.

It's called:
- PIS
- CIS

What is CIS, and WIS?

Flash very powerful character but like superman you have to tone him down.He would be hard to write if, flash was to use his powers to his full potential.

I don't mean he is in their level, I mean he is waaaaayy more powerful than he show in comics because that would make almost any enemy too easy to defeat

Yeah, but still. Look how many times people like Hal Jordan, Superman, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, ect have saved the league. Now compare that to Wally. Even Batman has done saved it more.

Wonder Woman and hulk save the team more than Martian and Thor, this don't define power just mean that writers can use the powers of some heroes better or they like one over the other
@ThunderGodsWrath said:
@BlueHope: Hmm, I guess.
I just wanna say that Flash is A level. He's the fastest man in any universe and his power is ridiculous. A flash at full potential is very close to what WW, Supes, Thor, MM and the like. I feel like Flash never gets to be at their level because in DC no one is supposed to surpass the Holy trinity so they get more focus and get to have the "big save" more often.
A character like Flash has to be toned down in cartoons because it becomes too easy for him to solve any problem in seconds otherwise. To say Flash is "B or maybe C level" is being ignorant to his potential and his abilities.
Not trying to be hostile but wanted to explain why I felt that phrase was wrong. Writing and favoritism holds Flash back more than anything.

I didn't mean Flash was B or C level. I meant in comics they treat him like that. I'm sorry if I came off like that.

Because of Science:
Force = mass x acceleration
What this guy said^. His mass might not change but acceleration is kind of the Flash's whole deal.

According to relativity, his mass most certainly does change as he approaches the speed of light.

Fair enough, but I meant during a typical fight. It usual takes some very special circumstances for Flash to encroach on the speed of light.

Did they nerf him in New 52? Because last I knew of Wally, he hit lightspeed like it was nothing.
@afueikawa said:
This.
YES! Thank you, I was gonna look for this after that guy brought up the cartoon. They RARELY allow Flash to do anything on that show which is my ONLY real complaint I could imagine about such a respected and loved show.
But finally they gave him his due, the whole league got wrecked and Flash just solos the guy by pushing the speed force to the limit. What an epic episode!
Wally West fan for life! Barry's been great lately but grew up reading Wally.

Wally hasn't been shown in the New 52. He's in comic book limbo hanging with Cassandra Cain.
Barry is the current Flash. I think I saw a scan of him subconsciously reacting at lightspeed, but I don't remember.
