Soul Shards is the new resources for Affliction Warlock, one can have 4 Soul Shards max.
it generate by:

Corruption (7% chance per tick to generate 1 Soul Shards (Nightfall))
(+1 every 2 ticks; +3 if target die; on target less than 20% health, deals 2x damage and cause Corruption, Agony, Unstable Affliction, Seed of Corruption tick for 2x damage)

when and only when Warlock have at least 1 Soul Shards, these spells can be cast to consume 1 Soul Shards:

Haunt (increase damage the target take from the Warlock by 30% for 8 sec)
Soulburn (empower next spell to:

Soul Swap (applies Corruption, Agony, Unstable Affliction without requiring them to be removed from a previous target (Soulburn: Soul Swap)),
Seed of Corruption (detonation applies Corruption to all enemies within 15 yards of the target and generate 1 Soul Shards (Soulburn: Seed of Corruption)),
Summon Imp / Fel Imp / Voidwalker / Voidlord / Succubus / Shivarra / Felhunter / Observer (instant cast),
Drain Life (healing increased by 50%) / Harvest Life (healing increased by 33.3%),
Curse of the Elements / Enfeeblement / Exhaustion (afflict all enemies within 15 yards of the target (Soulburn: Curse)),
Demonic Circle: Teleport (movement speed increased by 50% and immune to snares and roots for 8 sec (Soulburn: Demonic Circle: Teleport)),
Health Funnel (restores 140% more health and reduces damage taken by 30% for 10 sec to the target demon (Soulburn: Health Funnel)),
Unending Breath (allows target to walk on water for the duration))

the look of the Soul Shards can be changed by Glyph of Subtlety and Glyph of Verdant Spheres. now Warlock can role play Kael'thas! Cheers!
