I’m curious about which race is considered the best for playing an Unholy Death Knight in the game. Any thoughts or experiences?

It really depends on what you’re looking for. If style is your thing, Humans have some of the best looking transmog options. For pure damage potential, Trolls are good, but like others said, the differences are pretty small nowadays!
Simcraft suggests Trolls are a solid choice. The difference in performance is really minor now, though—less than 8% between the best and worst options. It’s not like the old days where you absolutely needed to be Troll to keep up in DPS!
Definitely Undead! The lore just fits perfectly, with the whole cycle of dying and being raised again. Plus, you get a bonus to your racial abilities that suits the Death Knight gameplay. Honestly, the small racial differences don’t even compare to the epic backstory!
Right? It’s like the Undead have a subscription to the afterlife!
If you’re planning to do mid to high-tier Mythic+ dungeons, Night Elves are worth considering. Their racials can be really effective in those scenarios.
Cool, where can I check out that Simcraft site?
