•What are the pros and con of each?
•What are the class counter's to each spec?
To me it seems I have more success with destruction. I get owned when I role affliction? Is it just a hard spec to master or is it just worse?

Yea definitely not the same topic. With that said I would say that skilled affliction lock has no counters and is one of the most formidable specs in the game when it comes to 1v1
Affliction is not bad as long as you keep people dotted.
Destro can win against every class 1v1 pretty easily, but the only real counters are shadow priests and unholy death knights.
Destro is overall stronger for arenas/bgs due to it's high damage burst and quick casts, but affliction can heal for days if there isn't any hard CC on you.
Destro fits in nearly every 2v2 composition be it double dps or a healer, while affli doesn't really fit in a double dps comp so people are playing with a healer.
I've maintainted top 10 for 3 seasons as Destro/Holy pala here on Warmane back when PvP was more active and you can check the ladders and see that most warlocks are destro.
Idk about all of this. I mean yes Destro is good and all but is it really better than Affliction?
The top warlocks at the moment in 2s are affliction.
I think affliction is just harder to play making people think it is the worse of the two.
High end played affliction warlock should be nearly unbeatable with no counters in 1v1
