It should be destroy a friendly minion and take 7 damage (or maybe 5, 7 is a bit much).  A dark pact is supposed to have a downside.

Cubelock loses Mistress and N'Zoth, I wouldn't call that nothing. And there are quite a few good counters to that deck which we will see more of after the nerfs.

 Well I said almost nothing :p

But as far as I know, N'zoth isn't really essential to the deck (I could be wrong about this though) and you also have to keep in mind that warlock isn't the only class that loses cards in the next standard rotation.

Not going to be nerfed, doesn't need to be nerfed.  Sorry people are salty about warlock, but that's all this is - salt.

 One of the best counters for Cubelock is Controlock

Just give it a week or 2, cubelock is far from unbeatable, and now that aggro and razakus took a big hit, new decks specially designed to counter cubelock will emerge.

We might even see control shaman\mage decks become popular because they are terrible against priests and high tempo aggro but should be fine against warlocks.

Dark Pact is not a problem. Is is pretty lackluster when used on a different minion. The problem is skull/lackey combined with powerful demons. So if control lock becomes too powerful after the patch, they will either increase cost of skull/lackey by 1 (unlikely + doesn't impact umbra combo) or rotate Doomguard. There is no need to make Dark Pact even worse than it's now.

Just make it 2-3 mana . Problem solved . EZ

Geist problem solved that is how Blizzard fix

What is wrong my dear smorc bmers?Are you afraid that for once your wretched kind won't dominate the ladder?Are you afraid that you will stay back at rank 15 where you belong? :P Well don't be.There are plenty cancerous decks that are favoured against any controllock deck,like exodia mage and tempo mage and then there  are non cancerous decks like control shaman,control pally,miracle rogue and other amazing decks that see no play because of the power lvl of smorc (oh yeah not smorc but  tempo/midrangy bla bla) and raza priests.
