Thumbpick/fingers or flatpick/fingers?

Which technique is best for playing Brent Mason-style chicken pickin'. I prefer to use a thumbpick but is it "better" to use a flatpick? Is there something I can't do with a thumbpick? I think fast "moveable" runs (with no open strings) can be harder to perform with the thumb and fingers...
