Which race for a solo Necro?

[M.J.]

Gnome Head to Head:

Gnome VS Dark Elf

No hide, no awesome neon German sex brothel starting city. Can, swing through hallways and avoid pats with wall-vision, get FD anyways.

Gnome VS Erudite

Lose the High Int / Charisma competition, lose the "can walk up large stairs" competition. Do, have godly starting zone that isn't an ocean or Karana's run away, enjoy the wee privilege of navigating Akanon easily. Tie, scalp real estate.

I think the answer is clear:

Iksar.
