According to a blue post by the game designer Seph, a set of changes to Affliction warlock are addressed. And Seph also clarified that the Tier 20 set bonus will be changing soon so as to reduce the focus on Drain Soul. The devs team also addressed concerns with Soul Effigy in the next cycle -- by removing it entirely. To get the detailed information, read the original post below! Looking for

Game Designer Seph:
“ We hear you all on Soul Effigy. We’re going to remove it in the next PTR patch. It’s concerning when the community sentiment towards a talent isn’t that it’s overpowered or underpowered, but that everyone is terrified they’re going to have to play that way if it becomes strong.
It should be understandable how the original concept of Soul Effigy would seem fun in theory, despite it clearly not working out in practice. As an Affliction Warlock, I'm very happy to walk into a 2-target boss fight. At a basic level, you know you're going to get double value out of your DoTs. Walking into a 1-target fight with Soul Effigy just doesn't feel nearly the same. Mechanically, the gameplay of the two situations is very similar, but in the end Soul Effigy doesn't play out well. Could be any of a number of actors - the reduced damage transfer, feeling like the effigy is just there for increased soul shard generation, the usability issues, or the unnaturalness of it as a concept. Anyways, it’s gone. Replacement talent to come.”
Not that there's anything but unnaturalness in a Warlock's fel-driven abilities, but the emergent effects it has on gameplay means that they'll be replacing it with a new talent coming down the pipelines. That in itself is meant to address the sweeping changes to the so-called MG play style, the recent nerf to which had slashed DPS by over 25%, according to Warlock player Cloontang.
