all those things could be in 1: If your race much better than default races ==> overpowered.

i will add 1 thing to the talk about O/P , don't give 1 race all good skills from other races, give them 1 skill that is the main skill of the race... like undead  lifeleech... or elf evade.... human invi..... the other skills should be support skills to make it enjoyable to play things like a little more hp... but u could make hp+ as the main skill +150 hp and the other skills weak, like that a good balanced race can be created.... give a race a MAIN skill, that is stronger as the other skills on the race.. 

cya

Then you can't properly make a playing style for the race.  The custom races I make are based around playing styles, like a knife race with legendary longjump and 1-Hit kills, however the longjump can also destroy the chance of ever hitting the person, while helping him escape from danger, anothwer thing that can help is his 50% chance to evade, however if he doesn't use the longjump a headshot will break through and kill him. The whole race is based off of that longjump helping and destroying you.

But If the longjump was the only main skill, and the rest were bits of hp and speed, then the playing style would be destroyed becuz you would need to hit the enemy twice if they have normal hp.

The longjump is the main skill in one perspective, however I have 2 other skills just as strong, therefor creating my playing style. And the longjump is needed no doubt, becuase it activate with the speed and -grav skill, and you cant move at normal speed with a knife and 100 hp and not get killed, even if you evade half the shots and get 1-Hit kills.

This was maybe more a tutorial than a point, but I disagree on some levels of this statement. However, he is right about a main skill, but it doesn't have to be stronger than the other skills.
