Just one move. The one that places a player in stalemate.

The person in stalemate cannot make a legal move and therefore the game is over at that time. It is automatically declared a stalemate by the software and is counted as a draw.

Did you mean to ask the minimum amount of moves to achieve a stalemate?

that would be an interesting question in "Puzzles"
