Thanks everyone for the feedback!
Regarding the use of images instead of formatted text, I had originally tried this for the AGM, LFH, etc. However, I discovered there is a limit of 30 images per post, which isn't going to fly for a top 100 listing.
I could add a faction column that is a red/blue square if the colored race names are too distracting. Regarding the color choice, I had to tone down (darken) the red because "true red" was too jarring on the page. For blue, I used a true blue since it needed to be distinguishable from Shaman and Mage classes.
