Is there a way to make it so that the one that should say 'its a tie' says 'its a tie', or do i have to do this the long way?

As for your code, good job getting the result you were after. You may want to consider a few things.
First, how can you DRY your code? (Don’t Repeat Yourself) You call the .max() method twice. Is there a way to only call it once?
Second, do you need the elif statement? When there are only 2 options, and the first condition isn’t met, we can simply execute the second option without testing the only other possible condition. For example:

def odd_or_even(num):
    if num % 2 == 0:
        return "Even"
    return "Odd" # Default return if the number isn't even
