contents Kolmogorov complexity is often used as a convenient language for counting and/or probabilistic existence proofs. However, there are some applications where Kolmogorov complexity is used in a more subtle way. We provide one (somehow) surprising example where an existence of a winning strategy in a natural combinatorial game is proven (and no direct proof is known).
