Recommended approach
Pick the job first: block or distract incoming fire, contest a flank, or support a damage line. Deploy a small test group, watch how the opponent clears it, and only then scale the unit that is buying useful time.
A chaff pick is successful when it absorbs shots or opens a path for your damage dealers at a favorable cost. If the enemy clears it quickly with splash, do not keep repeating the same purchase without changing timing or formation.
What changes the answer
The linked video directly compares Crawlers and Fangs. The current answer can change with shield tech, splash damage, unit levels, and opposing formation, so it is a comparison aid rather than a permanent counter verdict.
Version and evidence boundary
The video has automatic captions and no confirmed 2.0 version label. No damage, cost, or win-rate numbers are asserted from it.
