Regarding the Sock issue:

A. So do you remember Strawpoll? I think you should use that again just like what happened with Infinite VS Spyro to prevent any sockpuppeteers, since you can only vote once per device there.

B. In case you are still using Fandom polls, if both just so happened to be socked on, then depending on circumstances, this could be just like Caboose VS Edgeworth, where the last people they defeated would fight instead. If one of the combatants earlier died, then it could probably play out similar to Amaterasu VS Scarlet Spider where its just playing it out like nothing happened, but I guess thats an unlikelier option.

Id honestly go with A to be fair. True, it might seem possible to sock there via multiple devices, but thats very unlikely. I hope this advice helps in any way.
