Take no retreat for example. Wolverine doesn’t have to struggle with that at all because of his insane regen. Incursions bosses with linked up is another example (though my latest one was bugged and removed the horseman ability) as a horseman he can out heal the 3% degen a second. Ability Accuracy Reduction can also negate some of these but why even negate them when you could just heal though them.
Archangel will definitely be better then Wolverine in some situations, but it could go the other way also. In a normal act 7 fight if rather take my Wolverine over my AA. Both champs are beyond god tier and they both do a ton but overall I think Wolverine is better.
I think his toxins are great but regen is just better
Aa is levels above wolverine. Unless you’re asking who gains the most benefit from being horsemen.
Some of his major flaws though are heal block/reversal champs/nodes. In those scenarios AA is 100% better then Wolverine. Anything else it’s a tough contest that Wolverine can take the lead in.
Oh also, at least AA doesn't entirely depend on Apoc to be a great champion
Let's say this, what are the things you consider in a fight? The health, of course, which we'll coin as sustainability.
The other part is damage.
While wolverine gets both sustainability and damage, Archangel gets access to even more damage. It kinda is inversely sustainability. When you can end fights with such huge damage faster, you end with higher health.
I hope I made some sense.
Not that I remember that because I always seem to use AA vs Luke Cage, maybe that's why he's avoiding me as a 6*.
Here’s a clip of my rank 5 sig 148 getting smacked
Adding on to this post more, the only way AA can heal is through willpower, in endgame content block damage will still chip him down. With Wolverine the quote “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” very much apply’s to him.
It’s also nice to note that he has a more universal play-style, allowing him to play better into certain nodes and champs.
Sure, crazy regen and bleeds are amazing, but you really need more than that in your kit. Aa has the ability to shut down ALL of the opponents abilities! That's insane, especially since it also affects nodes and not just Champion ablilities.

Opponent having ability accuracy? What's that? No no ability accuracy for opponents
