What the two above said. FSI is key for shamans, not so much for SKs (unless maybe some particular situations...). It all boils down to the looks. I liked DE and Troll, went Troll because of DEs are too small. A shadowknight must be BADASS, not a wimpy, fragile elf who you could step on and crush.

Trolls look badass for that class (evil, asshole look), the regen is like having an innate half of a fungi worn forever, slam is a big plus.

The only downside is that you're big and in tight spaces it's a pain to pull, but you have the same issue with ogres, and shrink potions / AoN's do exist.
Not sure if you have yet, but you should check out any R A Salvatore novels regarding drow (dark elves), they truly are one malevolent, evil and cunning race. I used to think they way that you do, but if I had to re-roll, it would definitely be a DE, because although they a small, role play wise I rather be on the bad side of an ogre or troll than a dark elf. =)
