It's the always great positional players that create the most elegant tactical wins. Kramnik is one of the few.

We amateurs often find ourselves in endgames where one side is much better. A couple of pawns and a piece or two. Winning or losing position doesn't matter - all three results are possible. Therefor it would be nice if you make a video on how to make a winning plan in those endgames where one side probably is a lot better

At 32:15 the concept maybe to enlight a bit more is that 3 pieces (well coordinated and in good positions) against 2 allow kramnik to use 2 to protect and one to attack lets asy putting a rook on b7 or d7
