It's too bad it needs to be like that, that you have to choose a specific race and specific magic path to be able to compete against another specific race - at the expense of sucking against every other race. Don't get me wrong, I like the paper/rock/scissors mentality, but it should be within each race and not between them.
I think you're overemphasizing here. Really, there're only couple of nations that are out of balance due to balance strategies (and I don't think Niefelheim is one of them). With Helheim's loss of sacred at any fort it's probably not overpowered on large maps either. Other than those few nations the balance is pretty good. Even Helheim on small map is not a guaranteed win. And specially crafted anti-Helheim Caelum is not hopeless against other nations. You still have good scales, you can field a lot of regular troops, you have access to all magic paths through your pretender and after branching out into other schools of magic you can make your mages useful in the battle vs other nations too.
