Um, studying endgames is not the same as an endgame study. An endgame study is a chess composition taking place in the endgame.

After 26. Nb3 Qxf2+ black looks to be losing already. White's pieces looks better positioned for a better endgame even with material equal.

Not sure how good you are with the basics, but Jesus de la Villa's 100 endgames you must know is excellent
I practice 100 tactics puzzle daily but my Opening & Endgame sucks. If I have time, I can find a decent line/plan at the End but if not, then I'm mostly going by instinct which doesn't work out most times, meaning I get a good Endgame but blow it with mistakes or even blunders to lose a (theoretically) won game. Thanks for the advice, I'll check it out when I have time.
