You can also find links to the detailed specialization guides below.
Warlock PvP Overview
Warlocks are one of the best classes in Mists of Pandaria PvP. The class has
an excellent toolkit with plenty of Crowd Control (CC), disruption, damage and are one of the
most durable classes in a PvP setting.
Affliction — Revolves around pressure through attrition in order to
overcome your opponents and win in a PvP setting. Affliction Warlocks deal great amounts
of spread pressure while being able to crowd control the enemy team.
Unfortunately, while
Demonology and
Destruction are playable
PvP options in Mists of Pandaria, they are significantly weaker than Affliction. Thus, we will not
cover them at any length with written guides.
