I'm asking this as a Destro specced lock. I can't seem to do anything against shadowpriests that are halfway decent. They dispel immolate and just wreck me.
Anyone have a decent strategy against them? They just rip me to pieces. D:

Thanks for the constructive replies! Ok, so Curse of Tongues, yeah, I've been neglecting that and electing to go for CoE. I'll stop that. Good point about getting feared with Felhunter also. Thanks for the tips man, I'm recruiting spriests to duel just so I can practice some of your tips. :D

As a PvPing shadow priest I agree CoT is a major pain in the ass - dots scaling with haste works both ways it seems. Even with felhunter, and CoT I don't see a destro lock beating an equally skilled Spriest though. Affliction on the other hand is a different matter.
Something I hadn't seen anyone mention yet, you can use corruption to decrease the disspell change of your immolate by 50%(disspells are random), this may come in handy, also he'll waste another CGD on disspelling them both(if he does).
Priest dispel removes 2 magic effects, so that wouldn't help at all.

HA! ALL SHADOWFORM PRIESTS WILL EVER BE ARE WARLOCK WANNABES. WHY NOT MAKE A WARLOCK IF YOU WANT TRUE MASTERY OF SHADOW SPELLS!
PLUS YOU GET A COOL PET.

I agree with withambomb its i gonna be a fight of cd's lucky for you that you have more. 1 trick i have learned is if you see he has fear ward up try to
1) dispel it
2)fear
3)fear
4) at this point fear is just about useless it's only gonna last 2 seconds
5)You did set up a felport before the fight right? Use it and find something to los hump fro the next 15 seconds while DR reset
6)Now he has no fear ward and no trinket proceed to burst and fear so he can not get any damage/heals off. Also remember you have spell lock and Death Coil as a interrupt.
7) You still might lose a 5 second silence and 3 second 36 yard fear are quite powerful. (also the fact that he can dispel your immo makes it just that much more annoying)

I guess shadow priests are to destro locks what unholy DKs are to affliction locks 1 on 1.
