I'm insulted
Don't be, I have nothing against DT, or their fans, I'm pretty ambivalent twards them thouth I do ocassionaly like their side projects, its just that if they get through the next round they will go all the way for sure, and ive seen that happen with them too many times on this site, and I'm pretty sure Tool could stop them by grabbing some prog-metal swing votes as well as getting the anti-DT votes and those of fans of more atmospheric sounds.

How could anyone vote against DT? They are the gods of prog metal, they change time signature every few bars, and their vocalist is the most accomplished psuedo-classical singer in modern compositional music. Indeed, voting against DT is like voting against god. It's a logical fallacy which will incur the wrath of legions of followers. Except god can't sweep pick arpeggios like Petrucci.

The real question is, will either of these bands beat Dream Theater when they go up against them? (I say nay)
DT has an impressive amount of haters (not proud of it but me included) so y'know it can happen. I'd choose Tool, who I don't like, but really don't hate over DT any day.

Add Coheed and Cambria to that list of bands. (not you Epignosis). Bands that incorporate many prog elements, but are at a core of some other style of music

From what I've heard, which is the four Kayo Dot studio albums and not much Tool, I hugely prefer Kayo Dot, but it would be unfair of me to vote without having heard a comparable amount of Tool, so no vote (at least at this time).
Perhaps I will vote if people post youtube tracks of both in this poll and will vote purely based on those.
Here's the Tool track with most views (ca 15 000 000) on youtube:
