Depends what your interest is. If you are 'otb', by far the most common endgames involve Ps - but you need the endgame EGTs that these segue into anyway. Thus, KRPPKR requires KR(B/N/Q/R)(B/N/P/Q/R)KR. Rs seem to hang around longer than Bs, Ns and Qs - so KRPKRP and KRPPKR feature most often I think. KRPKRP hasn't been done yet by Eugene Nalimov (but has been done by Marc Bourzutschky, so it can be done by FEG with not too much kit). Few 3-3p 'EN' endgames are available. On the other hand, if you are interested in Study Compositions (Problems tend to have more men), just pick the sort of endgame that interest you. Different composers can focus on different endgames. g
