Ogre racial is nice if you get mad when you get bash-stunned. Otherwise it's mostly fluff. Most of the shadow knight spells cast fast anyway and none of them are particularly slow thanks to hybrid spellhaste at high levels. The ogre's main advantage lies in its significant statistic bonus. Trolls are good for regeneration, still have pretty good statistics, and if I wanted to feel like I was min-maxing the class that's what I'd pick. However my own shadow knight is human and it has given good service since its creation over 9 years ago. People overthink race to an absurd degree in this game. You're by far best-suited by choosing the race you like the look of the best because the "perfect" character won't do you any good if you never play it because you think it looks stupid.
