Huge thanks to Kargoz for the shoutout! We're so excited for TBC guys, going to be so much fun! Keep a lookout because we have some amazing stuff in the works for you guys!
@@kargozgaming I think you could do a break down of various actual arena matches you're in, like give some visualization to your thought processes of why you make each decision that you do. In League of Legends people will do things like this, they'll also accept matches from other players and breakdown what they did wrong, when, where, and why. You can get like some slo-mo action going for some of those split-second reaction decisions to really highlight it, maybe some john madden style circles and stuff to highlight things, etc. I think if you were able to do that you can easily dominate the up and coming warlock PvP guide scene.
Immediately admitting that people should take this with a grain of salt was such a cool thing to do. Super humble and it definitely made you instantly far more trustworthy than 90% of guides out there.
yo, i'm revisiting some videos as i came back into tbc later in the expansion (sunwell just dropped). this is a legit refresher from past memories. i really like your videos and style in them. thank you.
I did sl/sl back in the day. Human warlock. Perception was clutch when going against rogue druid comp. Ran in with Perception and dotted whoever I saw first. Get the jump instead of getting jumped.
@@darkshadow205 Rank 1 Curse of Reck will be your best global against a warrior when they spell reflect if the warrior hasn't yet used AoE fear or if the warrior is playing with a fear class like priest/lock since reflecting the curse onto yourself will immune you to fear for its duration. The armor reduction of Rank 1 Curse of Reck (-120 armor) is worth the fear immunity.
Edgelord here... If a warrior spell reflects, you can throw a lvl1 CoR making yourself fear immune... It's kinda niche but I thought it worth mentioning it.
I know I’m super late to this, but if any other new warlocks are stumbling by this video now as I did, another great comp for warlock is called Shadowplay in 3v3. Aff lock (Soul Link or UA: up to you really), shadow priest, and Resto shaman. You get multiple fears, multiple silences, tremor, grounding, and spellpower totems, bloodlust, drain mana and mana burn, lots of defensive or offensive dispels, and perhaps most importantly lots of dots and sustainability through siphon life, vampiric embrace, and earth shield. Personally I like to run this comp as full affliction with UA and an instant cast howl of terror, as having UA causes their healer to be a little more cautious about dispelling due to the silence mechanic.
Great guide man! You don't talk about destruction: Like when I should use Immolate, Searing Pain and Incinerate (I can see you have it on ur actionsbars, so I was just wondering about it). Another question: When I use AC on a mob and then use CoA, the dmg dosen't increase? Like it's bugged?
Curse of reck, can be good vs clothies if you have a rogue / warrior / hunter. Looking at your own character you would drop from 1200 armor to 400 armor. If your AD dmg dealer is good geared this will buff him with 10-15% more dmg.
Curse of reck is very good if theres just healer(s) left, since they would cast spells, the extra AP they gain dosent really matter, but the -armor would make a great difference when trying to burst down a healer if you have hunters/melees
Noticed I'm not getting master demonologist buff in arenas. In bgs the Vw'er with soul link and and passive 10% reduced dmg buff from MD talents as well as T5 set bonus for pet heals and warlock pet res trink is pretty op for mutual survivability purposes. I always consume shadows pre fight to get the 200atk power buff up on the void as well
Seed of Corruption has its uses in arena too. Like, when a hunter tries to hide in the pillars in nagrand arena, you seed the pet. He recalls it then gets hit by it.
in pve u can fear juggle with recklessness, fear, then when your mob gets almost out of your range drop recklessness, when the mob is almost back to you apply a different curse and the fear will take effect again. and so on. so not really useful for pvp tho except maybe on av elites
Wait. Please explain why we shouldn’t put up multiple dots? You said don’t double dot. Don’t get that at all. I always throw up all my quick cast dots right away. In pvp I put agony on first, then corruption, then siphon life. I can cast all 3 while moving and not facing my opponent. I cast them while getting distance then I amplify and agony again. Then I sacrifice Hit coil. That gives me 3 seconds to cast fear. How else should I be doing it? Im really new to wow so I am always open to learning new things
@@kargozgaming rofl I'm serious, fam. youre warlock pvp video with voivid/crix/naamtar convinced me to roll the master class. i didnt play tbc enough to play arena, so I need all the content i can absorb to limit my poop poop getting pushed in deep deep
Love your content, if youre going to do more pvp vids I would love you to go over some pvp matches that youve already played and break down/explain different decisions you made after the fact so that we can understand your thought process against different opponent comps.
Super late response here, doubt you’re still looking for an answer, but in case you are; I would take Orb over the Knapsack simply because of the stamina on the Orb.
I load up multiple targets with siphon life first then I go back and hit each with corruption and curse of agony. After that I fill with alternating between life tap and drain life. Against casters though it’s a bit different. Casters I make sure to hit em with curse of tongues and make sure to stack those mana taps if your blood elf. Main thing is to make sure you always have fel armor and soul link up and siphon life on each target is priority for survivability. Hardest thing for me is keeping my void walker alive to be honest. Gotta rotate some health funnel and bandages in when you can. Also don’t be afraid to sacrifice then immediately fel domination and resummon. Least that’s how I play it. SL/SL changed my wow life. 😀
@@markblaze4909 i learned from other sources basically this. Sucks hard in everything but pvp, and in pvp doesn’t kill, it merely outlasts. Glad I went a diff class! Stormherald paladin.
It’s really good if you can use your dot on the healer properly. Its just harder to play since you have an extra dot to juggle. So you’ll have UA corruption curse immolate etc. Tbh I wanna try it too
no game left to be played any more tbh. its nice to see people playing again but the pvp ranking is still limited and nobody exopecting a fair competiotion plays the game any more.
hey guys, hope you enjoyed the video. if you want to see us run RL 2s throughout the week we are live regularly @ www.twitch.tv/bran_1015

You can use Curse of Reck for spell reflects. Making yourself immune to fear for 2 mins
sick idea actually

7:56 curse of reck yourself when you see a warrior use spell reflection, easy.
So he kills you faster. That's good

Yo mate, nice guide !
I rly love the way you talk . very relaxing and precise
ty
I am new to PVP, I have to say you explain things very well. I will be putting these into practice. Thank you for the video!
The guide I have been waiting and hoping for. Love you, mate!
Hey Kargoz, been wondering for a while but what unitframe addon are you using in this video?
This is helping pass the time waiting for pre patch. Good shit Kargoz
Bro, you're killing it with the content! Your warlock videos are exactly the type of stuff I'm looking for 👌
It's 2am and I am watching/rewinding through this entire video, taking notes. So useful thank you for posting this!

I was already hyped for TBC Classic. Now I feel like the rocket ship is about to take off !! 🚀🌑
Keep pumping out these awesome vids sir!
Love your hardcore vids and that you’re into warlock pvp. Awesome bro. I play warlock pvp and tried hardcore for a bit as well
15:30 in that windroc there was a blinkstrike, I tell you.
Wanted to say im new to lock and looking to pvp in TBC so your vids are helping alot
Curse of reck rank1 on spellreflects from warriors in WLD is kinda pog
Curse of reck, can be good vs clothies if you have a rogue / warrior / hunter.
Looking at your own character you would drop from 1200 armor to 400 armor.
If your AD dmg dealer is good geared this will buff him with 10-15% more dmg.
Love your guides dude :3
Legend!
Thanks for the video, this was helpful for sure. Keep it up!
Great video man, thanks!
Curse of reck is very good if theres just healer(s) left, since they would cast spells, the extra AP they gain dosent really matter, but the -armor would make a great difference when trying to burst down a healer if you have hunters/melees
Awesome video man super helpful, you should make more. One on the talents esspecially.

@Kargoz, awesome quality video, i'm tired of low res video on YT now and this is a year old. What's the difference ?
Thanks for this video. Would love to see more videos around wl pvp stuff.
So much useful information. Thank you!!!!
Epic, saving this vid for when tbc releases
Hey Kargoz, late to the party on this one but thankyou for the really good content on warlock PvP!
Big brain at 10:05 well put
Edge lord comment: use rank 1 reck when war spell reflects
Also pretty sure banishing the lock pet doesn't remove soul link on retail
I was hoping to see this comment from someone :D
Hi what is your addon for your charracter portrait ?
really need to know what to do when a rogue or warrior is cleaving on you, and if immolate is used in arenas
nice vid btw.
I just fucking lost it at 0:49
Your team name is iced caramel macchiato. I work at starbucks and it was just so unexpected lmao
hahaha i order it upside down too! :)
You missed the first 3 pages of your Destruction spellbook!
I use rank 1 curse of wreck on warriors spell reflect. I am now immune to fear for 2 mins.
in pve u can fear juggle with recklessness, fear, then when your mob gets almost out of your range drop recklessness, when the mob is almost back to you apply a different curse and the fear will take effect again. and so on. so not really useful for pvp tho except maybe on av elites

beware there will be ppl on lvl 1 characters logging in after u kill them telling u that u have no skills and your class is broken.
Any word on the part 2 for talents and variations to the build?
i am wondering the same!'
Love the guide, thanks man! What UI addon you using for your bars??
ty for teaching me warlock.
If you play with a rogue/warrior that gets MC'ed, you could put curse of reck on them for fear immunity I guess.
Awesome!! Thanks for the guide, very helpful for my boosted lock.
This is some good stuff
Loved it bro
Hi, can you please tell me the name of the addon Frames?
Second this
Curse of Reck, when your rogue faces another druid healer or boomkin, throw that in when he is about to burst him down, gg.
curse of reck you can use as a micro fear abilitiy but honestly it just aint really worth good video my dude and thtanks alot
GET READY FOR LOCK DOMINATION IN TBC BOYS
For PVP full affliction Spec which better COA vs COE ? Please explain
Hard to choose between rogue or wlock for my pvp main, both are so fun.
Can't wait for the TBC streams!
Damn,, i was so set up on maining shaman . Hate that i watched this video . Guess i have to main Warlock now.
I was going to play ele shaman but im going undead lock! as my main. More flex
MORE WARLOCK PVP GUIDES - GREAT IDEA MY DUDE
Can't tell if ur serious but yea I have none other than this so I need to pump a few more out

throw curse of recklessness on a warrior reflect and you cant get feared!
yeh that would work but also reduce your already low armor to make you ultra squishy lol
@@Scorpis91 you use rank1 ofc
Hi Kargoz, could you please comment on which UI addon you are using. I'm sure some of us are dying to find out!
yooo i dont know if i should play ud/orc as a sl/sl warlock for pvp ? in my head orc sounds better vs all the rogues/warriors but idk ?
Hey dude great video... q: staff or dagger - off hand ??
Dagger offhand cause spellstome rotate on offhand bro
@@goldenmemes51 Thanks a lot!
@Kargoz, can you share your UI addons, please?
Does the imp fire bolt break fear as often as melee pet attacks?
Why not have clear and separate sections on talents and spells.
Hi Kargoz! Is not undead race better for pvp warlock?
well aaaaaacatually curse of reck can be good to use on your own teammate if they get mindcontrolled
extremely useful ty
Hey man, if i sac the void as part of the ritual, doesnt that mean i have to cast a fel hunter mid fight? Am i missing sth?
I remember 50 min matches with SL/SL RDruid... exhausting shit
Sl. Sl. Is good for arena. That’s about it
IS this Spec ok while leveling from 60 to 70 with crappy gear?
yes, drain tanking
may move a few points around
In 2s is lock and warrior a good comp for double dps?
and what about SL SL lock with shadowmastery 10 proc shdwdmg and succubus with 10proc all dmg? good for pvp too
Is felhunter the only pet to disappear whilst mounted?
Whats the point of having Soul link if you just sac the void?
Nice video, timestamps would be appreciated
whats the usual sl/sl rotation?
What name plate is he using with the moving frames on his name tag
Love your content, if youre going to do more pvp vids I would love you to go over some pvp matches that youve already played and break down/explain different decisions you made after the fact so that we can understand your thought process against different opponent comps.
hey, question: does sl sl lock benefit from bonus healing power? let's say for pvp i would prefer "khadgar's knapsack" over "orb of the soul-eater"
Super late response here, doubt you’re still looking for an answer, but in case you are; I would take Orb over the Knapsack simply because of the stamina on the Orb.
please could you tell me all the addons for UI u use?
Grerat guide!
With SL/SL build, what would be your rotation if you happened to be in PVE dudgeon?
I load up multiple targets with siphon life first then I go back and hit each with corruption and curse of agony. After that I fill with alternating between life tap and drain life. Against casters though it’s a bit different. Casters I make sure to hit em with curse of tongues and make sure to stack those mana taps if your blood elf.

Bro i’m 7 mins in and you still haven’t shown what sl and sl do
It does little damage and dies slow. Kind of boring
Not really any better builds for arena sadly.
@@markblaze4909 i learned from other sources basically this. Sucks hard in everything but pvp, and in pvp doesn’t kill, it merely outlasts. Glad I went a diff class! Stormherald paladin.
What UI are you using?
What do you think of UA lock with a spriest for 2v2? I had pretty decent success with that in tbc but we weren't worldbeaters or anything
It’s really good if you can use your dot on the healer properly. Its just harder to play since you have an extra dot to juggle. So you’ll have UA corruption curse immolate etc. Tbh I wanna try it too
SLSL was so much fun..
Doesnt curse of rek make the target stay still even when feared? That might be useful for pvp
Curse of reck makes you immune to fear so if you use it while warr is reflecting you become immune to his fear
Хороший гайд!
wait we summon imp we buff, then sacrifice void walker but we dont summon a felhunter ?
Thats what i dont get 2
Part two?
What the best class for gold farming ? Mobs or gathering...
Prot paladin for AoE farming I believe. Druid for open world gathering due to instant flight form. Rogues/druids can stealth dungeons for herbs/nodes.
What's that unit frame??
no game left to be played any more tbh. its nice to see people playing again but the pvp ranking is still limited and nobody exopecting a fair competiotion plays the game any more.
if your m8 needs mor dps you can buff with cor if he is mc ^^
