**Opositsioon** on kabemängus kabendite vastasseis.

Lähiopositsioon
---------------

Lähiopositsiooniks nimetatakse seisu, kus ühel ja samal vertikaalil asuvate vastandvärvi kivide vahel on ainult üks väli. Antud seisus on käigul olev pool kaotanud.

| 8 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 7 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 6 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 5 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 4 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 3 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 2 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
| 1 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|  | a | b | c | d | e | f | g | h |

Opositsioonis võib olla ka rohkem kive. Ka selles seisus kaotab see pool, kes on käigul.

Kaugopositsioon
---------------

Kaugopositsioonis on aga samal vertikaalil asuvate kivide vahel suurem vahe. Ka selles seisus on käigul olev pool kaotanud.

Võidukas opositsioon
--------------------

Selliseks seisuks nimetatakse seisu, kus valge kivi asub väljal b6 ja must kivi väljal b8. Antud seisus võidab valge hoolimata sellest, kumb vastastest on käigul. Opositsioonis valge kivi g1 ja must kivi g3 võidab aga must.

Tugevdatud opositsioon
----------------------

Sellise opositsiooni näide on järgmisel diagrammil. Antud seisus musta käigul olles võidab valge üks kivi kahe musta kivi vastu.

Kabede opositsioon peateel
--------------------------

Ka selles seisus on käigul olev pool mängu kaotanud. See motiiv on väga levinud kompositsioonkabes.
