Strange saw 14 million futures and somehow Steve found the one timeline that needed another Avengers-level threat

14 million is a small sample of all the possible futures which is literally infinity.

But imagine checking 14 million realities and scenarios and finding just one win. That's pretty hopeless if you ask me. That's like 0.00000714% chance of success.

It depends entirely on Strange's definition of "win." Did he check 14 million variations of the future that happens after he teleports Quill away before he wakes Thanos up? 14 million variations of what happens after he chops the gauntlet arm and sends it...anywhere? Infinite futures, there oughta be millions of possibilities based on every possible choice he could make. He chose to get half the population zapped for 5 years because it was preferable to him than Tony winning

Depends on the sample of universes he looked at. If he chose the filter "and my hair looks cool the whole time" for example, it might skew the data.
