If you still to explore Act 5 then Medusa is your best option. Added furies with sp2 and 4 armour breaks, you have no idea about the damage. Also when in 3 fury mode that auto-block can sometime save your ass. Really really helpful when fighting the new Ultron as Medusa is poison immune and a good counter to his evade.
I have a 3* duped AA and he’s a total beast. I use him for offense occasionally and his Poison and bleed are unreal. But I also haven’t finished Act 5 yet. (Almost done with Act 5) so a duped Medusa does sound more inticing. Can’t decide!
I have a 5/50 duped medusa on my main account that hits harder than my 4/55 undupped medusa on my second account. Masteries are pretty similar. The furys make a big difference imo.
Don’t forget her autoblock safeguard and her fury stacks come from her sig, to the people who say Medusa doesn’t need a dupe; AA does need a dupe and he’s great, but every other champ now is immune or resistant to bleeds and or poisons, so he is falling out of the meta. Medusa is still very much involved in everyday play.
Archangel counters many champions with ability accuracy reduction and he is good dps, while medusa is only dps (she is also great defender, but 4star medusa ain't stoping anyone anyway in war, let's be real)
For medusa, she needs to be awakened at a high sig level, and you need the inhuman royal family synergy to make her really good. Archangel dosnt need much work to be good
Wait for someone more worthy (IMIW/Hype/Stark Spidey)
Personally, I would wait for someone like Starky. His duped ability makes it so much easier to gain poise charges and once you have those almost every champ is Jell-O. Plus Hyperion is a boss with his duped ability. While these champs are good, I would wait for something like Stark, Corvus, Blade, etc. I just see more potential in those champs than I do the ones you listed.

I have a 4* duped Corvus. He’s a beast.
So you’d go Hyperion over AA? I’ve read he doesn’t really need to be duped. Is that wrong? I’ll be grinding for him next week. We’ll see how that goes!
AA is very limited on what he could do, poor choice for war defense and attack. And for AQ. Medusas dupe on the other hand can make her good in quests,aq,war.
I think if you're still where you badly need 4*'s, AA is a better bet in terms of getting you through that mid-game content. Medusa for what comes after.

Haven’t used it yet. Just want to make sure I go with the right champ to dupe. Or maybe hold on to if I ever get blade or Stark spidey 🤷🏽♂️
