It's good to have both in the pocket,might come in handy imho.
 But the truth is,alternate picking offers more power,accuracy and it's easier to follow different timings and notes values. While on the other hand economy is more smoother and gives chance to play some licks a lot more faster but timing isn't that tight and correct, it's more like a "flow" of notes,sort of. You pick what you like,my advice is both, maybe I'd give small advantage on alternate cause you can use it bigger percentage of situations.
