We feel like the races arent really balanced in 1vs1. With
elves < human < orcs < undead
(some of this might be up to debate, but since the bad heroes are generally stronger than the good ones this only strenghtens our point, and undead are still overpowered).

First, as a minor nitpick, there are no orcs in this game. The Uthuk Y'llan are more like demonically twisted humans, but are definitely not Orcs. :)
In any case, I'm not sure my experience agrees with this conclusion. While in our games elves have been weakest in 1v1, the humans have by far been the strongest for us, with undead and uthuk both relatively close to each other behind that. So I think sometimes the power often comes down to the playstyle of individual groups.
Lost City cannot be played during the first turn (this card might still be over powered in a 1vs1 situation and maybe should be banned).
Hmm, I disagree here, as well - Lost City is nice, but we've never found it to be anywhere close to overpowered. They start out damaged, and thus aren't really that hard to take, and if they are in the middle of the map, chances are they are going to be easy to get to. In our games, strongholds in the middle of the map tend to change hands quite often in 1v1 games.
