Is the Side Quest really that bad?

For context: I’m a Cavalier player, but have only progressed to 6.2.1 in Story Mode.
After all the negative feedback on the forum regarding the difficulty of this month’s Side Quest, I was like, screw it… I’m going for a run in Legendary to see how hard it really is. To be honest, it’s not that bad. Well the quest I chose anyway.
I decided to run Quest 3 (Symbiotic Enhancement Hive), which gives 7 x 5* sig stone crystals, 500 x 6* shards, and 10 x Klyntar Katalysts. (By the end of the event that equals 196 x 5* sig stone crystals, 14,000 x 6* shards, and 280 x Klyntar Katalysts.) I’ve got a few 5* champs I want to max sig, and I need to expand my 6* roster, so this quest was an easy choice for me. (I also noted that if I do Epic, I won’t be able to max out the Summoned Symbiote: Epic will only give a max of 168 Klyntar Katalysts – the Symbiote needs 240 to reach Rank 5!)
Drax and Symbiote Spidey were no match for my 5* Venom (5/65 sig 200), and my 5* Red Magneto (5/65 sig 1) made Wolverine look very silly indeed
I’ll be interested to hear any alternative champs y’all have used as counters to the above 3 defenders.
(Fingers crossed that I don’t pull a champ like 6* Iron Patriot with the shards from this Side Quest.)

- Venom (Venompool and Red Goblin would probably work)
- Archangel and wait for parry to become available to parry heavy.
Hit into the block to bait heavies.3 or 4 hit combo when he's at sp1 (like Yellowjacket) so you can be far enough back to evade his two web hits.
The fight isn't difficult in the manner of a Summer of Pain fight or the Grand Master where you can chalk up a failure to getting your tactics wrong and can learn from it. It's difficult in the sense that the attack values have just been stupidly inflated (beyond Act 7 levels) for no discernible reason, meaning if your parry fails or you mismanage bubble shield you are going to eat a combo that will KO your champ.
Agent Venom is being said to be the hardest, followed by Symbiote Supreme chapter
Moleman, Prof X, Torch, Nick Fury - those are my best options, in that order.
