How it was measured

For each of the 989 endgames Stockfish 19 evaluated the position in which the game became an endgame – at depth 24, with a time limit; a measurement that missed the depth does not count. The values are pawns from the player's side: an evaluation, not a verdict like that of the tablebase. When a game counts as an endgame is told on the page Database.

Measurements as of 14 November 2026.
