I guess my divisions counted on players loving a character or race so much they wanted to see it work.

Barely anyone will pick a specific race solely for RP reasons on a teams server, when the teams are so imbalanced. It's a self-dooming system because the people who would be interested in playing like that won't find enough other players, since their team will be so unpopular.
With the 7 combinations you came up with, the Freeport + Troll team would be most popular and dominant, since it isn't missing any key classes (only missing Druid and Ranger, not a big deal). Qeynos + Erudite would be the next most popular, since they would only be missing Shaman (but that's a bigger deal than missing Druid and Ranger). Every other team would likely have barely anyone playing it, since they are just an inferior version of those other 2 teams.
The teams need to be distinctly different and roughly equal in their overall advantages/disadvantages for it to work. The game code has to be changed to accommodate for that, whatever the team version ends up being. EQ is just too narrow otherwise.
