I think this is similar to King of the hill
NO MORE DRAW
Sort:
I dont know "King of the hill" chess variant.
I looked at the "King of the hill" variation.
They really are similar.
However, I was basically looking for the answer to how to reduce the number of draws in master games.
My variation, "The True Kings," retains the current traditional chess game image.
My goal is to make "The True Kings" well-known and a solution to the already boring draw parties.
I wish it would be normal chess over time.
No, 33% win, 33% draw and 33% lost whit white and black 
...and you can also win against Alphazero too 
NO MORE DRAW?!?

True Kings is essentially King of the Hill carried one move further and does not do anything to stop draws due to stalemate, 3-fold-repetition, 50-move-rule or a subset of the irrevocably blocked positions (example White Ke1, Pa4, Pd4, Pg4 and Black Ke8, Pa5, Pd5, Pg5).
Some years ago Bill Smythe already came up with a way to fully eliminate all draws and it does not involve a king immediately winning by moving to one of the four (or five) central squares.

I understand what you say. That's exactly the problem why I come up with my "The True Kings" idea.
We need to change our approach: Now we are seeing squares on the chessboard where the figures are standing but these squares are points only.
These squares can be represented by any form since they are points which can be taken by the figures.
Like hearts for example
This is a simple traditional chessboard.
However, as they are points only, a 65th field can be inserted into the centre of chessboard.
This game's name is: The True Kings
We create a 65th field.
Sign: %
Only available to Kings.
They can get there from e4, d4, e5, d5.
If the King enters the field "%", it wins the game.

It’s the same as KOTH because if a king enters one of the e4, d4, e5 or d5 it will win wathever the other side does

This comment seems to be either obscure or irrelevant. It appears to be a response to the comment that the first post is essentially King Of The Hill with one additional (and unstoppable) move added.
I am wondering if you are trying to say "if your are in check" instead of the very different "if you are in chess".
