Hybrids need love....if we are "supposed" to use altmer/breton on magicka build and redguard/nord on stam build (may not accurate, but u get the concept), why not make imperial a hybird race? it's not like we don't have enough stam races already, so why not make the expansion race a possible hybrid race?
And again, I'm sure even the stam/tank imperials can do fine without the current red diamond, why not switch it to something fun?

If hybrids were viable it would take away choice. If players could simply pick the best skills regardless of them being Stamina or Magicka that is exactly what they would do. So instead of having 2 flavors of each class there would only be one. That's not variety.
And frankly I'd wager if ZOS had forseen the constant issues with players choosing to be bad, they would have not used Play as you want, in any marketing campaign. Which by the way, they have since stopped using.0 -

i get what you are saying...but hey hybrid is not suppose to be "the best on everything"
There should definitely have advantage of being sole magicka/stam build, hybird's advantage being can heal/tank/damage just fine (especially solo) and don't have significant shortage
(say stam tank can survive longer &mag heals more but low on dps, stam/mag dps can do more single target/aoe damage but are fragile, a hybrid build should not surpass those solo build on their expertise but because it's veratile it can fit most role just fine when the whole team is not that familiar with each other)
simply put sole role should be great when they are all pro and have a great great team, while hybrid being less significant but can work well in, say, a newly formed group, and viable in the endgame0 -

No race or changes they could make to a race could make hybrids viable in vet trials. The game design doesn't favor them though they can be fun.
The game design cannot favor both hybrids and pure builds. More important is there are aspects of the game design that make hybrids weaker and races has nothing to do with that.0 -

but make a race that is considerably better at hybrid can be fun right
