Both can heal block & power drain.
Warlock is better at the heal block and power drain and has multiple immunity, while Mysterio can "limbo" reverse damage if played right, poison & poison immunity, and also has the option to inflict higher damage via SP3.

Warlock has great utility and immunities. Hs damage isn't as good, but fights still go by fast.
I just like Mysterio better, but both are good choices.
Although you're right in saying that Mysterio has higher base damage after an SP3, Warlock can still pack a punch with strong bleeds off his heavies and powerful armour breaks off his multiple-hit SP2.
All of the above make him a great candidate for AW offense and shutting down problematic champs. Chances are you'll also be coming up against a lot of Willpower, which is great, because when infected your opponent will not only be unable to heal but will also lose power whenever they try to regenerate.
tl:dr - Warlock is a utility monster with access to bleed/shock/permanent heal block/power burn/degeneration/armour break/armour up/triple immunity, will make certain AW paths an absolute breeze. Mysterio, while fun to play, has arguably more niche uses and harder to justify on a AW/questing team.
