Analyzing Magnus Carlsen's Endgame Technique (Part V)

And without further ado welcome to the fifth and final blog in my Magnus Endgame series!

As a reminder, I'm reading Hungarian IM Tibor Karolyi`'s ground-breaking work: Endgame Virtuoso Magnus Carlsen: His Extraordinary Skills Uncovered and Explained on the interactive Forward Chess platform.
