So far, it looks like all of Stockfish's wins vs. Dragon involve a blockade attempt and Stockfish breaking it.

sarona, just to be certain the game came through here fine.

(That was interesting, it looked one or the other would win, but they both Q'd at the end.)

Yes, I have been following nav's Twitch streams.

There was a very nice game in this tournament where Stockfish demolished Lc0 in a Sicilian Najdorf. Castled queenside and launched an assault on the black King.
