He who eliminates the dangerous contender is obviously even more dangerous, so perhaps it's not so wise for King to dawdle.

Similarly, if you are at the Crest of the Hill, with one opponent at the Top of the Hill, and if you are unscrupulous and evil and bad, then your best bet would be to dawdle until the Top of the Hill location is clear, and hope for a quick King Battle.

If you're on the Crest of the Hill and you try to dawdle till the Top of the Hill is empty and there no contenders, I dare to say you have to dawdle a long time.

Of course there is always possibility to dawdle, but it's difficult to have a good timing since games are finished in quick pace.
