When Dr Strange was talking about 14 million and 605 probabilities, what actually were these possibilities? And the more important question nowadays is, was he lying by telling it's the only way?
Everyone wonders that question. Why did Iron Man have to die? Actually, this scene, where Dr Strange sees everything appears to be absurd by fan sites. In the first look, this opinion sounds reasonable, but there's not so much details about that.
Besides everything, why did the Avengers wait 5 years instead of all the other ways to stop Thanos? And why did Tony Stark die as a result? People on the internet found so many different explanations for these questions. But for me the only reasonable excuse is, Dr Strange knew that the only way for their victory was this. Of course, there are plenty of ways to beat Thanos. They can tear off his arm and destroy his army. After Infinity War, nobody left from Thanos' soldiers. The simplest one is Dr Strange can open a portal and Thor can cut off Thanos' arm. Just because of that, so many people thought Strange did it just to put some dirt in Tony's eyes. But here we are talking about Dr Strange. I mean, he is not a kid. Actually, the problem is very simple here. But some group of people on the internet said that most of the problems occured because of Iron Man. However, that is just because of the reason and result connection. So even if Thanos has stopped, it's not clear what Iron Man will do after that. As a result, Tony had 5 years to spend time with his family. When Dr Strange said this is the only way, perhaps he looked at scenarios after Thanos' death too. Besides all of that, beating Thanos is so easy for the Avengers. Normally, Vision is as strong as Superman, but in the endgame he has shown us to be weak. And Dr Strange still did not tell anybody about other probabilities and what other events he saw. But right before his death, Strange told Tony Stark that this was the only way. Maybe in their situation, possibilities still did not end. I mean, these 14 million 605 probabilities matter still goes on. Josh Brolin announced he will return as Cable and Thanos. In this case, the Endgame and Infinity War loop still continues. As you know, Thanos was killed by Thor in both cases. But another Thanos variant came up from the past, and that happened 5 years after his death. So the probabilities may never end if it happens again. For example I talked about Thor's finger snap. Or Captain Marvel could do it too. There was no need for Tony's death for that. So Strange must be considered future events too and because of that he chose Tony for that role.
