The playoff format is 4 rapid chess games (25 minutes per player + 10 seconds increment per move).

If the score is still tied after the 4 rapid games then the players will play 2 blitz games (5 minutes per player + 10 seconds increment per move).

If the score still remains tie then a sudden death “armageddon” game (White has 6 minutes vs. Black has 5 minutes) with Black having draw odd. What that means is if the “armageddon” game ends in a draw, Black would win the World Championship.

Do you think this is fair? What system would you recommend?
