Weaknesses

As one of the fastest characters in the DC Universe, The Flash's main weakness is his reliance on his powers. Without his superhuman speed, he is vulnerable to physical attacks and has no other notable abilities to defend himself. Additionally, his powers can be affected by various forms of interference or manipulation, such as being slowed down by extreme cold or manipulated by mind control. Finally, his constant use of his powers can sometimes result in fatigue and exhaustion, leaving him vulnerable to attack.
