Is Armageddon always without increment?

Question

Robert Hess said tells Danya that no increment influences why Robert prefers white to black in Armageddon chess960. Of course it really depends on the bid, but I guess Robert would want a lower bid for black compared to an analogous case where Armageddon would have increment.

Have there been Armageddon games (in chess, chess960, shogi, xiangqi, go/baduk, etc) with increment? So far I've seen in chess960 they're all without increment.

Please ask only one question per question otherwise your questions are likely to be closed. — Brian Towers, Feb 09 '23 at 11:15
@BrianTowers Thanks for the advice. In this case: I said if none. Because if there isn't, then there's not really much to discuss so i move on. If yes, then there's no reason to discuss why there isn't (since there is). — BCLC, Feb 09 '23 at 13:30
@BrianTowers Why is it unfocused to ask another question in the event of an uneventful answer in a yes/no question? It's like if I ask on maths SE 'Do there exist objects with property X?'
If yes, then give example.

If no, then you'd expect a proof as to why such an object doesn't exist right? — BCLC, Feb 11 '23 at 08:02

2013 USCC Alejandro Ramirez vs Gata Kamsky had increment.

2013 U.S. Championships: Playoff (Part 2)

6:07 - 6:22 - It's a 5 second increment.
37:50 - 38:20 - Indeed both players get 5 second increment. Jen Shahade cites the increment as an explanation as to why players can afford to bid as low as, say, 18 min vs 45 min.
