Your assumptions mean that the more likely answer is “Omega is sufficiently powerful to mess with me any way it likes; why am I playing this game?”
That is, problems containing Omega are more contrived and less relevant to anything resembling real life the more one looks at them.
Note that thinking too much about Omega can lead to losing in real life, as one forgets that Omega is hypothetical and cannot possibly exist, and actually goes so far as to attributes the qualities of Omega to what is in fact a manipulative human. One example that I found quite jawdropping. This is a case I think could quite fairly be described as reasoning oneself more ineffective. People who act like that are a reason to get out of the situation, not to invoke TDT.
