Overall: (s)Priests
Arena 3v3: Warlock
It's a different playstyle though. Besides DoTs they have nothing similiar.
pretty much exactly what he said, but i mean which ever one you feel like you wanna go with, do it. I have seen high rated in both, but yes more locks than spriest.
By far, Warlock is better than (s)priest in any setting except 1v1.
The one you play better.
Spriest: More burst, do well in BGs from what I hear.
Warlock: More DoTs, completely dominate 3v3 arenas, and do quite well in BGs.
Locks= more control
Sp's = more damage single target damage (imo)
I think in any Arena setting a Lock is gonna put up high pressure with his DoTs and will be more valuable to the team.
But in (R)BGs an SPriest will do more damage and be better because of people being scattered out over a larger area.
Priests get eaten by melee and in closed spaces they can get shut down quickly. Locks can deal with that. But SPriests do more crazier burst.
When playing my priest I have the feeling I am doing damage with Mind Blast and Mind Spike. I have the same feeling with Destro Warlock. When playing my warlock, I am always surprised when I see my DMG done in arena or BG. I always think I do like 30k / 100k of the dmg while it is more. Affliction doesn't need to support allies while Shadow needs / can shield, offheal, massdispell or MC people of a bridge. Affliction doesn't cast that much as well while shadow does a bit.
Spriest = variety of CC. You can set up a pretty long CC chain just by yourself.
Downside - if melee sits on you very closely and ready to interrupt, you can't be very useful to the team. Whereas a lock can port out to some place not in the LoS and laugh at those melee.
Rincewind: Ah! We may, in fact, have reached the root of the problem. However it's a silly problem and so I am suddenly going to stop talking to you.
The better character questionnaire (D&D)
If you're going to level a took for 3v3 go spriest. If you get bored shadow you can have some fun lol bubble spamming as disc.
