Trying to decide between levelling a warlock or a shadow priest, I'll be mainly playing them in pvp and just want to know the main pros/cons of each.
I'm also unsure of which warlock specs perform the best currently.

The main things I want to know:

Mobility (Mobility skills as well as time spent casting etc)
How they compare damage wise
Difficulty (I'm a very casual player and not looking for anything too difficult to pick up)
Survival (Which is more capable of escaping sticky situations)

I've always been interested in making a shadow priest, as it means I can spec to a healer if I wish to, but having the three dps specs of warlocks also appeals to me..
So both have their merits in my eyes, I could do with some help deciding on which to play.

Any help would be great
