On the subject of making variants that eliminate chess draws: Has anyone tried a 'Maker-Breaker' variant, where White (as 'Maker') wins in the usual way and Black ('Breaker') wins merely by making it impossible for White to win? (So, 'draws' would be counted as wins for Black.) Would that give Black too much of an advantage?
