Thanks

in patch 5.3 Demonology warlock will be the best flag carrier in the game and it's not even gonna be close.
Oh my bad, didn't specify I was asking about Arenas.
It's viable as long as you are playing with a frost mage, however in my opinion, destruction is better for just everything, including arena.
Also don't Yvaelle too serious when he tells you some crazy story about imps and how amazing the spec is.
Well, you would most likely never die in arena ever in the history of evering.. ever
Wild Imps are OP in PvE with Lei Shen trinket + Doom spam, but I don't think I've ever mentioned them before in a PvP context.
In PvP I love running a Fel Imp as Affliction/Destruction for the team-dispels, it's way stronger than Mass Dispel and since I'm used to playing Shadow as a dispel bot I think I probably make a lot more use out of it than most Locks would. If I ran Demonology ever in PvP (I haven't even touched it this expansion though, only Destro and Affliction) - it would only be to FC in RBGs: not arenas. Don't hate on Fel Imp Nib - he's like the highest DPS pet and his utility is IMO the best of them all
I don't hate the imp, I just knew you were going to say something about imps ( Didn't mean the wild imps though). You always do that when it's demo related

DA demo locks have a good amount of dmg reduction (17% melee, 15% spell) from DA form, they have good dmg soaking cooldowns, they have good mobility and last, but it should have been first, they receive 30% less dmg when carrying the flag (as opposed to actual tank specs).

I think he's talking about the FC nerf in RBGs (damage taken increase)[1]. This means most teams will probably drop tank FCs and bring an extra DPS. An extra DPS can easily change the tides in a team fight just by being there, and then they can go pick up the flag and run it back while the other teams on respawn.
Warlocks will be especially good at this because of port, demonic leap (can you use this while carrying?), the passive defensives they get and also casted defensives like dark bargain.
@Niberion: imps op nerf warlocks

@Snuggli: treants op, nerf boomkins. Is that 5 sec stun still on the ptr?
