What do you mean? Oh, what do you mean?
Said you're runnin' outta time, what do you mean?

Tablebases normally give the fastest winning solution, and the pattern normally shows itself in slower wins

I've been looking at tablebases

I don't see a pattern lol

q+p vs q should be drawn if the pawn is not very advanced, right?

This is asking for 6th or 7th rank when it’s winning

Just do it until you suffer

For some reason I thought you meant QvP tips, (as if a NM wouldn't know how to win QvP) so I started making this diagram to show the pattern, and then I realized my obvious blunder. But I'll leave the diagram here in case someone here doesn't know the pattern.
(This only works for b, e, d and g pawns. Otherwise black has stalemate tricks.)
