Okay I have actually cracked the code for how the duel in Stormlight 5 will end, and it's a lot simpler than anyone is theorizing.
In chapter 99 of Rhythm of War we get a few pages with Wit and Jasnah writing up the contract for the duel. Wit tells a story as he's writing about how he once rigged a game so that he couldn't lose, and then someone tied it. He didn't lose automatically because it was a tie, but because he had bet everything on winning. He then writes up an airtight contract, ensuring that no matter what the outcome of the duel they can come away satisfied, with Odium still bound to the Rosharan system.
People are hyper focused on the tie, but even discounting that for not making any sense in a duel to the death, it wasn't the tie that did him in. It was an unexpected outcome that he couldn't have bet on. Todium's best move is to try and get Dalinar to break the terms of the contract, because he's not satisfied with win or lose.
That's the first part, the second part is the fact that Odium throws Wit's contract out completely, leaving Dalinar to negotiate on the fly. He does really well, ensuring minimal losses even if he doesn't win, and trapping Odium in the Rosharan system. It's all very very simple, and the more simple and straightforward something is the less room there is to bend it than if there had been provisions for each and every little thing.
HOWEVER, Dalinar adds a couple of things that he really didn't need to. 1. The champions must be willing, and 2. They must arrive unharmed by either side's forces. Neither side will purposely break their word by choosing someone who isn't completely willing, so it has to be the second one imo.
For narrative purposes I think it'll have to be someone Dalinar personally harms, it can't be accidental, and it can't be someone who was harmed prior to the terms being set. This is all pretty simple and maybe a little silly sounding on paper, but with the right execution it can and will be a massive narrative gut punch

Cosmere fans!!!
Any Cosmere fans who also watch kdramas? Even if you don't watch kdramas... Go to Netflix and watch My Country: The New Age. It's NOT the Stormlight Archive, but the main character is one of the best on-screen Kaladin dopplegangers I've ever seen. In addition there's a pretty strong Moash doppleganger. And beside that its just an amazing show with phenomenal performances, emotional music, and gorgeous costumes/locations. Only 16 episodes long, definitely worth your time!
