It wouldn't hurt to study both, but only when you have a handle on one before starting the other.

i was just watching the video below with your question in mind. Maybe some techniques, but this type of mantis movement is totally different that CLF.

Go with CLF.
It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

first may i ask why are you asking the question? do you have experience in one and wish to train the other? are you thinking about combining them in your training?
most styles can work together but few compliment each other, adn these two would not compliemtn if thats your question.
PS go with mantis, its a much more complete fighting art, provided you have a good teacher, otherwise no art will work for you

There are two types of Chinese martial artists. Those who can fight and those who should be teaching dance or yoga!
53 years of training, 43 years of teaching and still aiming for perfection!
Recovering Forms Junkie! Even my twelve step program has four roads!
A friend of mine trained TLQ with Xiao Peng in Taiwan, then CLF with Primicius in San Diego. The principles laced well together.
It's essentially what Cha Chui would have been if you added more angular movements.

Cha chui also happens to be the most staple CLF technique.

violent,
I meant complete as 8 step has a lot to offer, more so then a lot of styles out there, we incorporate herboloy, tui na, bone setting, anatomy, tai ji, IP, qigong. Not just the exernal stuff. Though you can find alot of old school techers who will teach all side of thier art, but its getting harder and harder to find.
