After a quick scout around common consensus appears to be that Cygnar get the most out of mercenary units. Like the title says, is there a main faction that gives minions similar levels of love?

Skorne, mostly. They've even got access to Minion specific buffs, and a theme force that explicitly requires Minion units.

Skorne, running gators better than gators do themselves. You just need to poke them a little.

Skorne considered Gators as another part of the empire they conquered

and honestly

Walking Gators fit right in with the Elephants and Dinosaurs

Skorne!!!

Rasheth with a task master and carnivore on them. Posse that is immune to knockdown and against living models the equivalent of MAT 9 and can reroll misses, P+S attacks of 15 and with his feat living enemies are -2 ARM.

Xerxis can give them Fury making them P+S of 18 on the charge that is on average 32 damage, 5 models with 2 attacks each, roughly 5-6 hits with average damage rolls will kill a Mountain King and when you are rerolling misses it would be hard for you not to bring him down.

Skorne... you had me at immunity to knockdown for 2 points and added in much, much more.
