Destro or Affliction for PVP?

I'm going to take a break from raiding and trying to decide what would be a better spec for pvp? Take affliction and let the dmg over time or go destro and try to keep up with the burst in lvl 80 pvp as it is today?
But atm my gear is 3 pieces of savage, 1 piece of deadly and deadly boots/belt. I have close to 700 resilience in my pvp gear and 1800spllpower/ 24% crit w/ my PVE spec which is 0/41/30 (felguard)
Any tips or info would be greatly appreciated, or just insight on warlocks currently in PVP

Stop saying that warlocks "the whole class is fairly(totaly) weak".
Yes, we're very screwed now, but not completely.
Destruction = Have nice CC (charm, SF, Fear and DC), but low flexibility (what makes you a lil vunerable).
Affliction = Good CC(but very weak cause of DR, and classes defenses), high flexibility, a good survivability, but lack of burst dmg. (don't expect kill ppl in seconds like a rogue can do, but do expect kill every class that appears (expect rogues)).
Depend of what you like, cause destruction and affliction are good and viable to pvp.
Takes alot of coordination and focus, so you may have some difficults, but you'll get the "way".

Yea I'm going destro but Sonoron atm for destro, succubus is better for pvp than a felhunter if you got the 3/3 instant seduce in demonology tree.

HuH? Isn't that in essence what I said? I said that the class has issues, but told him the pro's of his specs. It's ultimately about playstyle.
Oh and Felpuppy > Succ. If you can't figure out why, let me know. I'll gladly give you the run down.
Sorry I didn't read your post.
Don't worry I'm sure that with Vengeful Gladiator I know which pet is best for each situation.

That's right their situational. Succ is extremely situational, as is the void, the Imp etc. FelG is probably the only pet that isn't extremely limited. I guess it's a matter of which is the less hampered by situation. IMHO Fel has performed far better then Succ. I don't like getting immunes with my fear >:/
Huh? Don't worry with Hateful/Deadly I think I know which is the one
I LIKE
:p lol I could care less what gear you have. I'm giving my opinion, he doesn't have to do it. You obviously use the succ, that's cool bro. I don't.
He's Destro. He doesn't (or barely) use DoTs. Therefore he uses Succubus. Good luck fighting a Rogue or Warrior with your Felhunter out. Instant Seduce is a godsend for Destro PvP.

thats what i do and it really works:
have a vw out with soul link start with immolate or shadoflame(SF if target is close) then use conflag for backdraft death coil or shadowfury whatever you pref ( i pref shadowfury cause the cooldown is 20 sec and you will have it soon enough) then chaos bolt immolation death coil incinerate and thats how it goes.always have corruption and agony on target , or tongues on casters its much better
that shall work for you
EDIT:if you want instead of VW use succubus for an other CC but she wont survive for long cause of the soul link , and you can also sacrifise your VW for 10k dmg absorb..

Or you can also use Imp with affliction(soul link/dark pact) or even as SL/destruction, so you get your health increase like 6k (soul link and blood pact)
Imps are really good battery for hp and mana, and putting them shift phase make he's hp/mana almost yours the bad part is that only you can heal him.

well
this
is the specc i use and its pretty awsome cause you have high chances to heal yourself , many stuns (many stuns = good survavibility) much burst dmg and its sure that you cant die from casters ^^ nether protection owns.. i got crit for 4k by pom pyro with arcane , i liked it cause i have 20k life actually :D
you can also use succubus after 1-2 dispelled stuns and do soulfire! 10k crit inc! i suggest this build for 2v2 arena teams and battleground , not sure if its good for 3v3 and 5v5 since i dont play these
