18 pt disc.
but take absolution instead of meditation. dispel and mana burn the spells are that make priests impossible to ignore in BGs.

I'm 17/2/42, I'll drop SF and heal in my 2v2 or in my 3v3 if my healer is cc'd/dead. Healing focus is very useful, cheap @ 2 points too.
Mana Burn
From my limited experience in arenas, I found I use my imp mana burn in 3v3. We run rogue/me and a pally. If we go vs another team with a pally, I'll mana burn the pally if I'm not FF'd. Imp mana burn also allows you to get in mana burn contest with a disc priest and win (since you have a silence, aka 2.5 more mana burns). I haven't used it a lot in 2v2 or BGs.
Absolution
Dispel is excellent in arenas since priests are the only class that can offensively and defensively cast it (shamans are offensive only, pallies are defensive only). You'll be dispelling dots on your teammates, HoTs/buffs on your enemies esp in 3v3/5v5. Big mana saver imo.
Inner Focus
I use inner focus to return to SF after I drop it to heal since I'm not undead (DP).
Shadow Power Vs. Misery
I *highly* recommend Misery over SP, especially with the resilience gear out there. I actually saw a calculation vs a priest with 400 resil and Blessed Recovery, a crit doing
less
damage than a normal hit (when the Blessed Recovery heal is considered). You can also set off crit reactive talents like Blessed Resilience, Focused Will and Martyrdom. In other words, avoid crit like the plague in arenas as a spriest. Its' great for KBs in BGs though and ok for PVE.
