Traditionally in the Elderscrolls, in the start of the game you are required to pick 5 major skills which, when increased, allow you to level up. Now, this time around that class system is no longer present, however the same principle applies to a varying degree. So I ask you, out of these skills, which 5 ones would you pick?

Personally, I would pick One and Two handed, Heavy armor, Block, and Restoration. Actually I'm not quite sure whether or not to apply myself in either restoration or alchemy, since both are good options as far as healing could go. Seeing how I'd be focusing on martial warfare to a greater extent, I'd probably be apt to go with Alchemy, since that allows me to focus more on Fatigue and health, rather than spend some points to try and keep Magika relevant.
