whiteknight are you joking? ~~
The lvl1 creatures are much more important than oh-so-l33t titans or black dragons.

Maybe they are not so important than useful 
Anyway I prefer to carry some high-level creatures from different towns than full recruitment with 1st level from one (mostly because of their vulnerability - they die quckly and you can sacrify they in order to save more important creatures).

A band of familiars is milion times more important than 5 additional black dragons/titans/archangels/whatever. Also, if you're out of mana or don't have cleansing , several sprites will help you more vs. frenzy than 20 devils.
I also don't understand what you mean by "the die quickly". Skeleton archers backed up by kaspar never die, for example. And if I fear that I can lose some of my precious familiars when creeping, I just take them off the battlefield and the problem of casualties is solved.
Just my 2 cents.

I use the Sprite's cleansing a lot. Especially in duels. It really throws the game in your favor when the opponent casts a negative or positive spell and forgets about your Sprites.

They can't hold a candle to their alternatives  Stalkers are easily one of the best tier 1 units not just because of their stats but also because they can make defeating a horde of archangels possible on week 2

I'd go for Assasins, though it took me a while to choose.
I chose Assasins because of they can be so useful, especially when fighting slow melee units, poison will do good damage, in later battles however, familiars are very useful for their mana sucking, but if you lose too many units in the beginning you will feel it later.

What I think so far:
1. Stalker = tough one and excellent specials
2. Sprite/dryad = fast and best dmg potential for lvl 1 creature
3. Shieldguard/defender = excellent tank & high quantity
4. Familier/Vermin = good dmg dealers and specials
5. Ske. Warrior/Archer = Very high quantity & decent specials
6. Cremlins = decent stats & specials
7. Goblins = ok dmg potential but bad specials
8. Brutes/Conscripts = below average stats & specials

I choose Skeleton Archers/warriors ( I have ToE).
Both of them are quite good, due to their
high numbers and capabilities.
In second place, I would chose
Master Gremlins, and then Assassins.

There are two ways to look at units. Individually and how they complement the faction they belong in.
For instance gargoyles are sucky as neutrals but they are a great asset in academy's hands. They protect, give you an armageddon advantage and buy you time to cast spells.
Similarly goblins are an important part of the orc army, if not for their damage then for their specials. I'll admit that I never use unupgraded goblins but they are still a lot better than peasants.

i understand what you mean, but gargoayles are not tier 1 creature, they would be even more useful in warlock hands

In my opinion familiars are the best level 1 creatures (though a whole gang of non-dying gremlin saboteurs with the HP boosting artifact is also very attractive).
About the 1 vs. 1 thingy: I'm quite sure the sprite will be the winner here and not the assasin. Wasp swarm makes sure of this. 
Only problem could be the skeleton archer (immune to wasp swarm) or the stalker (invisibility). Still, because of its blazing speed and initiative I think our fairy will leave the battlefield with a pleasing smile.
But just give me a gang of familiars and I'll laugh at my enemies. If not for the fact that they drain mana, then for the fact that I've got the coolest looking level 1 creatures with their huge tongue and this thingy in which they store the stolen mana.
