Nickel anti-sieze may not be sitting on the shelves at your local parts store, but I bet they can get it by the next day. That is the case for Oreillys.

I've tried both. Don't see that there's much of a differance.
They are both fine for spark plug threads but not for high temp applications (2,400 - 2,600 degrees) like the grounding shield. That is where the high temp nickle anti-seize is required.
