While it is not the same for raiding (where affliction is da current king), Heroics favor FG/Emberstorm. The fights are simply too short in heroics for affliction to build up... The trash dies faster, and the bosses die fast. With FG/Ember, your damage takes 5-10 seconds to build up (FG gets a few stacks of frenzy, you get Corruption/CoA and Immo down, Molten Core procs and you shoot off an incinerate). With affliction, you need at LEAST 30 seconds for everything to be applied and start ticking (Haunt, Shadow Embrace, Corruption, UA, SiLi, Reapply Haunt and UA, etc...), and you need a few minutes for your damage to reach its consistent "high"... In heroics, fights simply don't last that long.
Also, FG/Ember is more forgiving for new 80s. The rotation is simple, and you can get good amounts of spell power even in horrible gear.
