There's something kind of similar, Armageddon chess, where black wins draws and white gets a time advantage.
Of course this is not "classical chess," but it's used as a third line of tie-break in the classical championship.
This is also lame, since a world championship specifically for classical chess should not be decided by non-classical chess.

Black wins draws is a bit too inelegant, as that leads to a Black advantage. Splitting the draws into Stalemate / Impossible / 50-move end / 3-move repetition gives us 4 draw-conditions to "split" between the two players. > This is also lame, since a world championship specifically for classical chess should not be decided by non-classical chess. There's something to be said that classical chess is definitely becoming boring because of the frequency of draws... possibly due to the increase of computer analysis and advanced play we have today. Some kind of "no-draw chess" should be the new classic chess standard applied to the game.
