Claw Poison build for Scion and Shadow nearly identical, which to play?

Title.

Been casually theory crafting poison builds.
Since Scion's Ascendancy lets them start at another classes spot on the skill tree, the builds are almost identical.
Which leaves me with little on which to base a decision of which to actually use.

Like I said, this is casual, I don't need to be uber min maxed ideal built, I just wanted to have fun making a poison centric character, so I don't need any build advice of "do this" or "don't do that".
But I could use help choosing between the Scion and Shadow for the build I'm making myself.

The difference is basically using the Shadow's Assassin ascendancy skills vs using the Scion's lesser version thereof but getting more passive points and another jewl slot.
