By build:

Melee? --> Human. If not enough defense put level ups into CON. Dwarf is absolutely fucking retarted. Bladeforged self-heals are lagging behind human at this point, even on fighters---they are also down AP and 2 feats.

Ranged? --> Gnome/halfling for better IPS. Otherwise Human. H-elf if you need AA access.

Int-Caster? --> Sun-elf only. Deep gnome PK is too expensive. Sun-elf gives access to cheap spell-pen if you ever need it. Artificers blow, please don't play one. If you must play one, go sun-elf so you get the electrical imbues which complement your Mastery of Air lvl 30 feat.

Cha-Caster? --> Drow. There's a great argument for human.

Wis-Caster? --> Gnome / deep-gnome. Monks are wis casters but are only good as human because of feat and more hamp.

Shitardi? --> Bladeforged. Or anything else if using undead form. For the love of god someone make a half-orc!!!

---
By race:

basic

Dwarf: useless flavor crap.

Elf: useless flavor crap.

Halfling: only good for ips with GxB or repeater. Must play as ranged.

Human: god's gift to the nubs and powergaming silly-monkeys that you and I all are.

premium

Drow: Sometimes an ok sorc, bard, or warlock. Usually stupid though.

Gnome: Druid DC caster (god forgive you), or FvS / Cleric if you play a shitty Wisdom based caster

H-elf: Great ranged toons if you want access to AA capstone and damage boost on Monkcher/Shuri builds. Look like burn victims.

H-orc: Useless. Not even good flavor since PDK looks similar enough.

Warforged: only good for a sorc or arti heroic PL. Do not take this toaster to epics.

iconic

Bladeforged: mediocre melee, ok shiradi template. human healing is better even for nubs....

Deep-Gnome: ok for a rogue or wiz past life. PK too expensive. Sun-elf is the superior wizard. (See gnome for wis based comments)

PDK: fatter version of god

Shadar-kai: nigger humans without the feat or damage boost. WTF turbine. Useless. Those dodge pls aren't worth it. Just stop.

Sun-elf: Wizard best race. Artificer best race.

Dwarf is pretty good as a shriadi in undead form.  +2 con and free save boosts.  Human spellpower boost is pretty marginal IMO.  Bladeforged has greatsword as favored weapon, rather than a one hander; important in current gear setups.

Yeah, leave it to AtomicJew to tout dwarves as the master race; I fucking told you so!

Fml.
I have three drow (mech, wiz and assassin ), elf monkcher, shadar ranger and sun elf fvs. Fucking powergamers.

I liked shadar kai racial tree actually. That abundant step thing works with wolf and Shadowphase is cool for pulling levers and stuff < 26 ( TF clickies ). Got addiced to Sprint Boost + 1 barb level + Shadow jaunt + invis pulling levers and opening doors and trap skills while levelling.
Past life is alright. Rogue level is not terrible for melee start if you don't wanna play comical Quasimodo.
All iconics are cool for me - I can't stand 1 - 15 heroics drag anymore really.

Bleh, who are we kidding, race is basically cosmetic choice at this point.
Death to all midgets though !

This.   Racial trees and abilities have a nominal impact on build quality.   Human's extra feat and skill point and boost option are the only really compelling advantages, with the exception of the elf/helf access to the aa tree.  Everything else is flavor.   Play what you want. 

Still.  never play a gnome or halfling.  Since they are flavor, why would you your flavor to be shit?

Drow are still gary and retarded.

Bladeforged can double boost too. Halfling has assassin synergy.

Best race for Artificer is...the Deep Gnome.

Cry bitches, cry!
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
