Color Distribution of Races
Just wanted to point out a few things I noticed about the way colors are distributed. This could be helpful in deciding which race to pick. Let me know if I missed anything.
##Key: S-Strength (Red), A-Agility (Green), I-Intelligence (Blue), W-Willpower (Yellow), E-Endurance (Purple), N-Neutral (Grey)

EDIT: At levels 24 and 32, you get a legendary card based on your current race. It is probably better to switch races for level 32 in case you get two copies of a Unique card. I did not include upgradable legendaries because I don't think it would give you those. Assuming you can get any legendary that has that race, here are the possibilities:
