Wrong Bishop

A wrong bishop is a bishop that cannot control the promotion square of a rook pawn. In king, bishop, and rook pawn endgames, if the bishop cannot reach the promotion square's colour, the position may be drawn even with an extra pawn, because the king can block the pawn on the promotion square.
