Nov 25, 2021 at 7:44 comment added Komorebi @m90 This position is exactly what I meant. I assumed from the question that the lost is happening when the arragment of pieces is already repeated and the loser will be the one who has to move now. In your described position, whites repeat the arrangement of pieces by 3. Ke6 and now it's balck's turn to move. So the black loses. But If I misunderstood the question, then I guess maybe the answer could be changed to: " The loser will be the King, which makes the opposition first."
Nov 25, 2021 at 5:42 comment added m90 I think this is not correct. For example, if the white king is on e3 and the black king is on e6, White can play 1. Ke4 to form opposition, but then after 1... Kd6 2. Kd4 Ke6, it is White that would have to repeat a position to maintain the opposition.
