I never used any merc camp troops except vallorian guard, so this is my opinion only.
I play as an elves city on my both en server worlds, Arendyll and Felyndral. So let's talk about the vallorian guard...
Vallorian guards are very helpful on many battles, like you guys said, its extra attack range makes it able to strike at a LM / most HM units at a range without being striked back. Like the treant, vallorian guards specialize against HR units, ideal for piercing them over obstacles, but just a little more bonus than the treant --- maybe the game developers made a mistake? Due to their lower HP and higher attack, when dealing with HR units it's ideal to use vallorian as an attacking unit and treant as defensive unit.
Trust me, having vallorian guards in the early game is vital to help elf players to solve many types of difficult encounters, for players still in early game, just craft vallorian valors in your magic academy and you'll have it!
