Chaos Wave wasn't even super useful before it got nerfed, it was great for lazy damage or to throw out if they were dumb enough to be all grouped up, but even then it was still a lazy spell because Imm Aura + tab target Touch of Chaos does WAY more damage (and always did).
Destro is not viable in arena. It's great for rbg, but once you even get into decent rating people use focus targets and chaos bolts are almost always interrupted or reflected.
Aff is good for higher numbers, the bigger the crowd the better because you don't have burst on your own to kill 1 on 1.

Oh and don't take Sac as demo. You will be the focus cc target quite a bit, and your demon(s) are still pummeling them while you are cc'd using the other grimoire's.
