Sprite by far the best level 1....nothing close.
Sprites are strong in the beginning and also later if you can use them right. I put them down on my list because they're crap on a hero who captures towns and don't have Archangels or Resurrection. You lose around 50 sprites in one round by the siege towers(The number depends on which town you're attacking and how much is built there).
In the start of a new game you can take out the most with sprites, except shooters or very fast units. Slow is nice when doing this.

Level 1 units are almost ONLY usefull in the beginning and maybe middle of the game, but hardly in the end. You just don't have a free slot on your hero for them.

Depends on size of map. Small maps, I use first level units, big maps, rarely. Btw, I prefer taking Centaurs instead of dwarves and dendroids(If not Ryland or possessor of artifacts which increase speed)and I also bring Skeletons if Necro.

Thats the case mostly on the template you hate - jebus. On Balance the centaurs are probably the second best unit after the elves.

I think that's the case on many templates (Extreme, Extreme 2, Frozen Dragons, Marathon) which are played on XL size.
Of course you are right about Balance, coz there has to be a reason why most players chose rampart and Ivor on this template 
Edit:
Btw...I do not hate Jebus. It just bores me to play it in normal 1vs1 style and everyone choses castle. Playing it 2vs2 without Castle, or 1vs1 native style is ok for me.

When i find an opponent who plays TE - we always go full random.
About Extreme and Extreme 2 - i dont have enough practice to comment those templates, so i wonder - why level 1 is not important there. You meet relatevly late, so you have lots of grouth of level 1, + dwelling probably, + the new hero each week. And on Extreme there is not much hives, right?
Or is it because there is a lot of necro army from the pandoras, and you need to replace half of your army? Is it enough to be worth it?

you will usually get a lot of lvl 6 and lvl 7 troops in pandora boxes. your low level troops will be used as fodder to fight all the tough fights in the dessert fastest possible. it is very likely that you will get 30+ black/dread knights for example

They can't reach the enemy soon enough, unlike Centaurs. And Centaurs are even better guards due to their size.

2 more defense and 15 gold less... I like Halberdiers more than Centaur Captains.

Halberdier and Centaurs upgrade are head to head,since Centaurs have higher speed which gives them oportunity.

Halberdiers...theyll take on centaur caps any day.
Halbs dont need speed anyway with the marksmen next to them.

I like useful unit than strong unit.......................
Normally I like Pixie-Sprite and Gremlin - Master Gremlin (must upgrade). But in poor and dangerous maps, I prefer Troglodytes.
And at last, Skeletons cover all with their crowd!

THe centaurs are ideal guards to eleves in the beggining, as centaurs are both fast and large.
What can be more usefu?. You can build Homestead in week 1.
