Choosing my R5

So I got a skill R5 gem and have been debating my rank up all day. I love KP, Shang & Nick to death but there's also champs that are exciting potential prospects such as Agent Venom. I do play T2+ war and I do push BGs so those factor into my thought process. Honestly, I just want to get a grasp of what others think as I've been told Nick by quite a few people.

Can't speak for Shang-Chi, though. I have him at r3 and am warming to him but I have not nearly as much experience with him as with the other champions. As for waiting for a better champ, I wouldn't in your position. It would be one thing if you didn't have a bunch of the best Skill champs in the game, but with that trio, I think you're better off pulling the trigger on one of them. Who knows when you'll get Valkyrie or whoever you'd be waiting for.
As for ranking up Agent Venom, I'd advise against that as well. While he's amazing with the right synergies, I would never want to rank up a trash-on-his-own champion to that level. That's why I haven't r4'd Cable, for example. If your main focus is on other areas than BG, then maybe it could be a worthwhile investment, but I personally only rank up champions who can stand on their own.
