Stalemate is a situation in chess where the player whose turn it is to move is not in check but has no legal move. Stalemate results in a draw. During the endgame, stalemate is a resource that can enable the player with the inferior position to draw the game rather than lose. In more complex positions, stalemate is much rarer, usually the result of a swindle that succeeds only if the superior side is inattentive. Stalemate is also a common theme in endgame studies and other chess problems.
Stalemate is a chess situation where it's your turn to move but you're not in check and have no legal moves available, which results in a draw instead of a loss. It matters because players with weaker positions can use it as a last resort to escape defeat, while it also appears frequently in chess puzzles and studies as an instructive theme.

The outcome of a stalemate was standardized as a draw in the 19th century . Before this standardization, its treatment varied widely, including being deemed a win for the stalemating player, a half-win for that player, or a loss for that player; not being permitted; and resulting in the stalemated player missing a turn. Stalemate rules vary in variants and other games of the chess family.
