Affliction focus remains on drains and dots, Demonology seems to focus on pet survivability and symbiosis, and Destruction seems to be focused on creating shadow/fire hybrids instead of one way or the other.
Quick Analysis (pve):
Eradication, and Empowered Imp both seem far too strong to survive to retail in their current forms.
Metamorphosis would have to be really good to be better than ruin, probably isn't.
Torture, and Backdraft seem pretty horrible and no one is gonna get decimate over demonic sacrifice, and I have no idea why one would want a chance to have instant immolate/searing pain. Destruction and Demo both lose a lot of their current power but only demo seems to get useful new things. The first 21 points of destruction was actually improved which is pretty odd since it is probably the most powerful first 21 points in all of WoW.
So if it went live like this I have a feeling we would see a lot of 50/0/21, and 0/50/21.
0/50/21 would be both the empowered imp machine gun spec (which would give you almost 100% crit rate if this version of empowered imp went live), and the felguard beating spec(no point to use a succubus now that it isn't +10% dmg on master demo and you can reach felguard)
50/0/21 is mostly based on the strength of dots being good when you have bad gear, and eradication giving you nearly 80% uptime of +20% haste, along with being able to reach both ua and ruin.
