Viable? Yes...BUT you don't really get to ever land a kill by yourself and in most kill opportunities you may only do 10-15% of a target's damage while your other dps has to do the heavy lifting rest. You also have 1 spell school for all your damage and CC and interrupts NEVER hit DR. 2x melee can make for a literal 0 casting environment. Is that fun to be trained 24/7 or have them swap to your healer and you can't CC/peel or kill the targets through their CD's. End of the day ask yourself is it fun to play in the role of punching bag who can't land a kill solo and has 0 snares.

Demo has almost 0 pressure in 3's but can burst hard on CD's... Requires far more setup with CC's and team coordination so you can cast the lethal stuff when you need to. Most demo pvp streams in 3's I've seen use demonbolt. On the upside a 3+ stack DB and 2x CW can really drop someone in the casting window that usually means getting their trinket, their healer's trinket, and setting up axe toss into coil on kill target.

Destro can only pvp as CR and casting fire school does no damage and shadow school (CC or CB) is a lockout...and even if you do a CB isn't going to kill anyone and conflag hits like a lvl 90. So unless you are thuggonomics (sp?) its probably not going to happen. Maybe a double dps 2's for all the self healing but demo/healer 2's will likely work better. Aff/healer 2's are for people that not only hate everyone but themselves included but you'll lose to every single healer/melee or healer/hunter which is sort of all of them. Then you get stuff like flameglow that can make a mage quasi untouchable by affliction.
