I’m gonna say Hyperion, I have him duped as an r5 and he’s so useful across the board. I have Venom unduped as a 6* and am considering taking him up to r2 because he’s fun to play and he just shreds even unduped.
These are pretty even as they are both great in their own ways. I gave Hyperion the edge because of his power gain. But venom has nice bleeds and spiderverse characters can’t evade him. And the new variant will likely benefit him moreso than Hyperion. It’s really a toss up. I’d rank them both eventually.
Venom is great for v2 and obviously only he can be used in v5, for all else, Hyperion. Hype is also great for v2, especially the adaptoid boss. I also used him quite a lot in v3 despite the weakness.
Venom regen better than hype? Not sure about that lols. 30% regen you can trigger unlimited times in fight vs rng regen dependent on opponent buffs?
In terms of Variant content, he’s a machine in V2, easily one of the best champions for it. Depending on how deep you are into Act 6/your roster in general, it might be a good idea to rank Venom for V5, though with how tasty the rewards are looking I’m assuming it’s going to hard, possibly too hard if your roster is limited by mystics/Symbiote etc.
I always follow the policy of getting an a solid ROI on my rank ups if I’m low on resources. I usually use Sentinel as the example - not the best tech in the game but awakening and ranking him gives you easy mode for V3 and by extension a massive amount of rank up materials. Venom could well be in the same boat with the combination of V2 and the upcoming V5.
Hold until you see what V5 is like, if Venom is the MVP and you think you can do it, then Venom would be my choice, otherwise Hyperion.

I would rank 5 Venom and explore the upcoming variant 5
You could get a 4-5 Cosmic Gem from exploration to take up your Hyperion
