Agreed, as it is for Clark. I just don't see how he can out think the brute force computing power Clark has, that's all.
Seriously, superman may have a faster processing brain, but Reed's brain will process things so much better than Clark's that it will overcome his speed every single time.
Originally posted by ColossusGrundyBecause what Moleman or Doom can do have a near infinite amount of possibilities (especially what Doom can do). There are a set amount of ways a chess match can go. And while the number of ways it can play out is incredibly high, for a guy like Reed, it shouldn't be too hard for him to calculate every outcome.
Draw.The ones that think Reed can predict everything forget he never sees the next Doom plot or attack from the Mole man.
He is smart, but not psychic. They split the matches.

Reed can't see every possible move to the level that superman can see every possible move? How does that make any sense.
Because Superman can calculate and predict more moves than Reed can. It's not a question of intelligence, more processing power.

Why not?There isn't a time limit per move.
What would a time limit have to do with it?
I mean sure, considering chess has only so many pieces and so many routes, Reed is going to predict a hell of a lot. Like I said, it's just processing power.

You're essentially comparing a super computer (Supes) to a calculator (Reed) in solving a math problem. Not that I agree with your comparison, but we'll go with it, if there's no time limit the difference doesn't matter.

I know.
It's not going to really matter either way.

Seriously, though, computing and analyzing every single possible move in chess is a weak sauce feat for someone like Reed. Best case scenario is that Superman is able to draw with him.

Superman wins, unless Reed forces a draw. Think of it like Midnighter's battle computer - he sees an outcome he wants, then works backwards from it. Then updates it accordingly. Chess has its rules, and I don't think Reed can see as far ahead as Clark can, and update on the fly.
👆 They don't call him Superman for nothing. 🙂
