Breton/Orc/High Elf has been my top 3 from the past games in the series.
I played all 3 races in skyrim and for longevity I play breton atm, Reguards are good despite the nerf on their racial, High Racial is Ludicrous with destruction as it reminds me of Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z getting heated up and barraging somebody. Orc's racial is rediculously awesome in Skyrim due to DOUBLE DMG and HALF DMG taken, just pure amazing. In Dungeons and Dragons (Miniatures not Online) I always play Orcs, Dwarves, Humans and sometimes exotic races like half-ogre half-troll n such.
