Currently there are only 12 races available in Rune Slayer, with four of them being added in Update 2. Each of these races has unique skills and race perks, which provide better synergy with various classes. So, we've listed all the races along with the best classes that you can pick with them.

Best Class for Human Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Warrior	Striker	Humans are natural Warriors with their enhanced survivability and attacking prowess. Striker is a similar but faster alternative.

The ideal subclass for the Human race would be Berserker or Knight for Warrior and Monk for Striker users.

Best Class for Elf Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Magician	Archer	Elves excel in magic, with their mana and cooldown boosts making Magician a strong choice. Then we have Archer, which offers an agile range option.

The ideal subclass for the Elf race would be Warlock for the Magician class and Sharpshooter for Archer users.

Best Class for Orc Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Striker	Warrior	Orcs thrive in melee combat with their high regeneration, making Striker a strong pick. Warrior suits those who prefer heavy weapons.

The ideal subclass for the Orc race would be Ashura for the Magician class and Berserker for the Orc class users.

Best Class for Ghoul Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Magician	Priest	Ghouls have an inherent +5% Bonus to Magic attacks, making them ideal for any magic-based class like Magician or Priest.

The ideal subclass for the Ghoul race would be Sorcerer for the Magician class and Cleric for Priest users.

Best Class for Amphibu Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Striker	Warrior	While the passive isn't great, the active skill can CC enemies in range. This works well with most melee classes, especially the Striker and Warrior.

The ideal subclass for the Amohibu race would be Monk for the Striker class and Sword Master for Warrior users.

Best Class for Ailuran Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Thief	Archer	Ailurans’ speed and agility make Thief a perfect fit, though Archer is a great alternative for those who prefer ranged combat.

The ideal subclass for the Ailuran race would be Assassin for the Thief class and Beast Tamer for Archer users.

Best Class for Chiroptran Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Thief	Striker	The Chiroptran is a vampire-like race that can heal enemies in close range, so has a good synergy with the Thief and Striker classes.

The ideal subclass for the Chiroptran race would be Ninja for the Thief class and Ashura for Striker users.

Best Class for Slime Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Magician	Priest	Slimes’ magic abilities shine with Magician. However, if you want something different, Priest is a strong alternative for more on the healing and support side of things.

The ideal subclass for the Slime race would be Warlock for the Magician class and Cleric for the Priest users.

Best Class for Half Golem Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Warrior	Striker	Half Golems' durability and toughness make Warrior ideal. Though Striker provides a more stamina-based melee approach.

The ideal subclass for the Half Golem race would be Knight for the Warrior class and Monk for Striker users.

Best Class for Bunny Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Striker	Thief	The Bunny race is unique and can get up close and personal, making it ideal for Striker and Thief classes.

The ideal subclass for the Bunny race would be Ashura for the Striker class and Assassin for Thief users.

Best Class for Dullahan Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Warrior	Magician	Dullahans' healing on kills and resilience make Warrior a great choice. The Magician class also works well for those who don’t prefer direct combat.

The ideal subclass for the Dullahan race would be Berserker for the Warrior class and Warlock for Magician users.

Best Class for Seraphim Race

Best Class	Alternative Class	Reason
Magician	Archer	One of the most overpowered classes with huge buff to Mana Regen and Focus regen. Works best with Magician and even Archer.

The ideal subclass for the Seraphim race would be Warlock for the Magician class and Beast Tamer for Archer users.

With everything said, my advice is to have fun out there. The game is PvP and offers a range of customization down the lane, so don’t be too hung up on your starter race and class.
