How fare the Orcs?

With today's racial changes, where do the Orcs now stand in the hierarchy of races? Any particular class they should favor? I'm guessing Stamina based is still preferred?

I have a Redguard Stamplar I might consider changing.

Thanks!

    Summary of that testing comparison for Orcs:

    Orc
    Excellent - Stamina Sorcerer, Stamina Dragonknight
    Great - Stamina Nightblade, Stamina Templar, Stamina Warden
    Unoptimized - All Magicka Roles
    Notes - They are the perfect balance of raw damage and sustain for a stamina class. They perform exceeding well on classes with low sustain and no class spammable skills. Their consistence is between that of Dunmer and Redguard.
