When I see antivenom in a quest, I get happy cuz he's a free health potion. I try to prolong the fight with as much as I can so I regen the most. He is only useful for that (And old HS).
I have ranked both and like both, but I reach for Wiccan everyday. I can recall the last time I didn’t have him in my AW attack because he’s so versatile. But honestly, there’s no wrong answer here.
I'd say to consider your roster before making a choice.
As everyone else has stated, Wiccan is a better overall champ, hands down. That said, there's a lot of great mystics out there.
If you already have a high ranking Kushala, Rintrah, Hood, Doom, etc., then maybe Wiccan isn't adding much to your roster.
Anti-Venom, while not amazing, does bring poison and incinerate immunity. There aren't too many champs with that combo. In fact, the only other two I can think of off the top of my head are Iceman and Peni-Parker. I know there's a few others, but that's what I got at the moment.
Also consider your roster in terms of champs who have easy access to stacking debuffs. I forget what the node is called, but there's one that pops up occasionally where you can't do any damage until a champ has three debuffs. He can be good for nodes like that too.
So yeah, Wiccan is better, no doubt. But there's a lot of champs that can do what Wiccan can do. I have a fairly deep roster, so this may not apply to you, but I can honestly say that the only two defenders I would take Wiccan against over other options (node dependent) would be Knull and Terrax.
nah go wiccan but cmon i wanna see some ranked up anti venoms
They do exist. I ranked mine up a few war seasons ago because he was gonna be good for it and the path I was taking, but forgot about him after that season. 😭
Antivenom and don’t listen to the haters, he’s 6* locked for a reason
This is very true, Groot, Drax, OG Cap, OG Black Widow and Rhino are meta champs that Kabam doesn't want to be release as a 7 Star cause they would break the game.

are these “meta champs’ in the room with us right now? 0_o
I literally can't remember the last time I saw anyone using an Antivenom either on attack or defense.
But there's probably no reason for that.... Go with your heart...
Spoiler
In case it wasn't apparent, you really ought to go with Wiccan.
Whoa.. I understand Wiccan is more popular.. but let's not completely trash the guy now 😂 "Homeless Venom" as I affectionately refer to him is actually a great champ lol (especially paired with S99 of course) - I'd 100% be interested in a 7 star release

Well.. certainly during his War meta anyway (his use may or may not have declined since then for me:) But that's what I like about Sagas.. they push us to rank and play champs we had overlooked previously.. and I had lots of fun playing them sometimes (Viv was another during her meta) https://youtu.be/hDHjQ9X4qdY?si=CEv-SxsywgKoWDZ0
nah go wiccan but cmon i wanna see some ranked up anti venoms
I have him maxed 6* and ascended. Use him all the time. Is he amazing? No. But he is good, but he is not a defender or useful in BGs. But once you get some furies and debuffs going he hits hard. I have no regrets. But I have Wiccan ranked as well. But I never use him as I have Juggs.

Wiccan, again MUCH better ROI for your rank up.
