The verdict
Megafobia shades it 3–2. Close enough that calling the wrong stat hands the round over.
Megafobia is a wooden Wooden twister coaster at Oakwood Theme Park, GB, built by Custom Coasters International. Wicker Man is a wooden Wooden coaster with fire-effect pass-throughs coaster at Alton Towers, GB, built by Great Coasters International.
Both are in GB, which puts them in the same conversation for anyone planning a trip there.
Both are wooden-track, so nothing here is the usual steel-versus-wood argument in disguise.

- Throughput goes to Wicker Man at 952 rph against 850 rph — clearly ahead.
- Build Cost goes to Wicker Man at 21.3 $m against 2.7 $m — in another class entirely.
- 22 years separate them, and because Vintage rewards age it is Megafobia (1996) that banks the point, not Wicker Man (2018).
