Metallica is more iconic, but as a person who's heard too much 80's metal, Metallica has never really done anything to the level of what Megadeth did during their Marty Friedman era. Megadeth perhaps never made anything below mid during this era

For that alone, Megadeth is a better overall band. The highs are way too high, and Metallica made some really really mid albums for more of their life
