I'll try to explain why I support Cheetara's decision the best I can right now.

They were basically given two options. Surrender and Tygra lives, or keep fighting and Tygra dies. One option was an absolute outcome. If they kept fighting Tygra would die.
But If they surrendered they might've been taken prisoner. There really wasn't any way for her to know for an absolute certainty that Slithe would call for them all to be killed anyway.

So she basically had a choice between an outcome that was certain and an outcome that might or might not work in her favor.

So she gambled on the uncertain outcome (where they could've been simply held prisoner) instead of the certain outcome (where Tygra would've definitely died).

And honestly, how do you know that Slithe didn't make his decision to kill them anyway because Lion-O wanted to keep fighting?
