I am not crashing this starter before I pitch, but when I do pitch should I decant most of the wort and just pitch the floc'd yeast?
in order to decant you would have to cold crash it for a day or two to force the yeast to floc out completely, otherwise you risk decanting a lot of yeast in suspension. If you can't crash it then pitch the whole thing but that wouldn't be my recommendation;)

+1 to cold crashing.
