1. Caldari (cruise or torp raven will be EEEEEvil. Eagle and command ships will also have ranged dps with some mobility. Best HIC imho. I do not fly much non-bs t1 so there you go.
2. Amarr/Gallente (an almost tie). Amarr has nice dps and tracking and again nice BS. Similar with Gallente. Both have good dps at range. Amarr has better range options imho, but rails are still awesome. In HAC category, SAC can be tanked and so can deimos. I prefer Amarr command ships for their tanking ability. And Amarr ships look cooler so I give this to Amarr.
4. Minmatar - screwed. The whole point of minmatar was a speedy race. All of their ships were balanced or favored because of their mobility. Would you take any Minmatar BS over any other ****erpart ever? Not really. Arties suck. Autocannons are nice though.
Their HACs? Hello - all about speed. No way to tank either effectively except for speed tank.
Command ships? Well Claymore can be tanked nicely and sleip is ok. But neither of these can do dps effetively until they get close (unlike say vulture). So they will never get there with speed nerf.
CCP has given all minnie pilots the big *&^% u. They will all have to cross-train and I imagine many who were bordering bailing the game will.
If you are choosing now - go for Caldari, or Amarr if you care about looks. :).

The Ishtar will tank better than a deimos, and with all the hac business and speed stuff i think to many people have either forgotten or were not playing when people use to tank there ships rather than speed tank them.
I think you will potentially start seeing the richer players in eve bringing out faction fit stuff that isn't designed for speed like they use to.

Caldari = Amarr >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Minmatar >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Gallente
Amarr have better damage for the fleet gank role, but Caldari ships are not far behind, and have much more versatility. IMO, they're about equal, it just depends on whether you want the insane firepower/range combo of T2 pulse + scorch + optimal rigs, or the far superior Caldari support ships.
Minmatar are borderline useless. Projectiles just plain suck, but there are still a few Minmatar ships that are decent despite this problem. The Rapier will still have a use, the Broadsword is still awesome, the Vagabond is still good even post-nerf (arguably even better, now that the competition has been removed and webs are no longer instant death), and the Sleipnir isn't crippled by pathetic grid/cpu like the Absolution.
Gallente are the worst race. Blasters are just way too situational to be useful, especially with the general trend away from solo PvP. The only Gallente ship even remotely worth flying right now is the Dominix, and even then, I'm not sure I'd take it over an Abbadon.

Guess that's what happens when the dev's can't make a narrow patch to save their lives, and end up taking the sledgehammer to everything. Hard to imagine things being actually balanced in this game, heh. Guess that's something reserved only to other games.

Not that I don't agree about the sledgehammer comment, but exactly what "balanced" games do you speak of?
Every multiplayer game I've ever played has had lots of cries about imbalance. It's usually somewhat real, somewhat perception, and almost always exagerated.
It would be nice if they'd make small game changes more often instead of making large changes occasionally. That way they could tweak things before they get out of hand without hacking the legs of things either.

The ship you are looking for is called a dominix. Vote against the nano nerf! |

Amarr >>>>>>>>>>Gallente>>Caldari>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Matar
Gallente takes second becaseu the dominix and arby/curse other drone boats are still top notch vessels. In fact gl hitting drones with a 60% web :)
But we dont fully know the extent of the speed changes and the possible missile changes so only our god, dear CCP Nozh will know teh truth. --

Minmatar will still be the fastest race post-patch. Vagabond will be the only HAC in the game that will go fast enough to completely negate missile damage; which, IMO, is how it should be.
Amarr will reign king, Caldari will be a lot better than they were, Gallente won't be as useless but still ultimately the most nerfed race.
IMO. |

I don't see minmatar being of any use at all postpatch, especially the vagabond. It will do what it did before - run fast to things, orbit outside of web range and shoot peas at the opponent. Except now it has a lot less survivability and will turn brick-like.
Caldari in their current sisi state is even > amarr, but I assume that'll be nerfed a bit. They will reign king like amarr in the damage + tank that eve will now be. ECM will be the new whine-sauce and "fotm" of eve, missiles will do even more damage and torp ravens will replace the ever mighty megathron as DPS of choice.
Gallente is going to be hurt - but they still have good tanks, drones aren't hurt (they're getting an indirect boost with the speed nerf), and blasters will be okay under certain circumstances.
Minmatar on the other hand are getting flipped the bird. The 3 traits that basically make up our race: speed, hit + run, and versatility were ALL nerfed. They're nothing more than sub-par DPS, sub-par tanks, sub-par ewar and generally a failure of a ship. There will still be some good ships (Broad.... rupture, hurricane, rifter + co) but the rest will fail upon the stink pile that is projectiles, and pre-nerfed stats that comprise every single minmatar ship.
