This super final, with both engines without tablebases showed how important those tables are; and exposed this chess monsters engines their lack of knowledge in some endings, to the point they look like teenagers shuffling pieces.


If im not wrong there was a game in superfinal (or was stage 4) where SF can win and later end in a endgame with a rook pawn with incorrect bishop, losing half point.

To be fair, Komodo showed a better knowledge with some better valuations. Still SF is impresive how plays.
