It's pretty straight forward I think. Each side loses one piece every round. If white somehow runs out of pawns that can check the black king, or if the black king manages to get behind the pawns, white can still promote some of them and win.
Wouldn't promoted pawns join the other side? Like a manager getting a payrise
~~What? In the bottom board, assuming white to move, any capture is a checkmate - black king cannot escape check, and cannot capture because the pawn is supported.~~
~~White wins in 1 move.~~
How?
The knights can defend at least two attacks.
I'm dumb. Thank you for correcting me.
