Anyfin Paladin is a OTK control deck, very simple to play but yet, you don't have much time to play it until Anyfin cycles out of the standard format.
Control warrior is much harder to play based on how well you are patient and how well you use your removal. Yet this deck will survive the test of time of the standard format swap.
IMO, you should try the dragon warrior lists to get used to playing warrior, once you are good enough control warrior is good but very expensive and games are long, so you might need to practice often and I am telling you, the deck is frustrating when you spend that much time doing a game and yet you still lose.
It depends on your collection, but Anyfin Paladin has two class legendaries in it most of the time, while Control Warrior has one maximum, most of the time, and has a bunch of really high-quality and highly played neutral legendaries. If your collection isn't great then Control Warrior is definitely the way to go. If you already have Rag Lightlord and/or Tirion then Anyfin shouldn't cost you too much more dust anyway.

I would go with cw.. The legendaries you have to craft for controll warrior can also be used for other controll decks (well it depends a bit on which cw variation you want to play) and the warrior cards you need to craft are also good for most warrior archetypes.
Anyfin will cycle out in roughly 6 months, so it should be enough fun to still have fun with it if this is the only thing which lets you hesitate.

Who can take your trash out? Stomp it down for you? Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingy, too?
Well murlock otk cycle out but the core legendary of the deck, Tirion and Light lord rags still here, and you can play its brother Nzoth Paladin later, so nothing to worry about dust value.
if you want better vs Control, go murloc and nzoth paladin. Eat CW for breakfast.
if you want to farm shaman,zoo,freeze mage, CW is the best. But beware, the most popular control deck ironicly the weakest in Control mirror. Control priest, control paladin,renolock matchup all are horrible.
Both, anyfin paladin is fun and often hard to choose how to clear boards or when not to, cw is harder and a lot more expensive but you can instead make a fatigue warrior, which basically takes brann thaurrissan and justicar trueheart and then a bunch of epics that you should have some of anyway as well as violet protector or whatever and coldlight oracles. It is basically just control warrior with cheap late game instead of expensive late game and more removal/ armor gain. I bet that to make both is about 6000 dust.

Just fill your deck with one drops, that is creative deck design, right?
CW was a thing long before Justicar. It will be a big hit for the control archetype, but that doesn't mean it will be killed (especially with the new cards that come out. As for Anyfin Paladin it will be killed for sure with the next rotation. In the end you can still play both in Wild and overall CW looks like a deck that will always exist in Standard (with varying degrees of strength based on the current set of cards). On top of that as somebody mentioned that deck requires good all around neutral legendaries, so you will also be expanding your collection for future decks you build.
Control warrior is more consistent than Anyfin but piloting the deck requires more of a skill cap. In the matchup against one another, control warrior is favoured. You have more win conditions as a control warrior than a control paladin. What you want to craft is personal choice but you will win more with control warrior than control paladin archetypes.
i have a blast playing CW, it's just so interactive. i doubt it wouldnt be the same for Anyfin. but for future purposes. try CW. i think it'll still be viable in the next rotation.

What? CW is favored vs Control Pala? What game you play. You just to press hero power when play pally and wait for the warrior to concede. Ìf you tech in Justicar it will be much faster lol. I play both my CW and nzoth pally to golden portrait so i know how the matchup go. Really CW is a control deck made to punish aggressive decks and freeze mage but vs other control deck such as entomb pries, nzoth and otk pally, renolock, you feel helpless lolz.

You can craft CW then get matched up against Anyfin and you will get rekt lol
Control Warrior existed before Justicar. So it will still be a thing when Justicar rotates. Who knows if we get something similar?
To Op i say that depends on your collection, both are slow decks and the games will last but CW probably is the best in terms of future proof.
