IIRC there will be both, but the rated BG's will be the more popular view than the Arena.

They aren't replacing them.
Rated Battlegrounds will become the 4th "arena" type with their own ratings. Unlike arenas you will not have a dedicated team, although you must participate with a pre-made.

Im pretty sure they said it was the guild that got "exp" or whatever guild currency if the bg consisted of 75% of your guildies.
The premade could be made from random members that will all get honor points and whatever pvp currency
My two cents.

Yeah I hope that changes. At Blizzcon they said you have to do them as a guild and you only get the points if your team consists of at least 75% of your guildies (I would llike to know who is going to volunteer to make up the 25% and play for no reward).
and I don't want to leave my guild just to do rated BG's competitively.
Fingers crossed they let us make teams or it's going to kill a lot of small social guilds and even the bigger pve guilds will be affected. People are going to have to make choices.
I think your misunderstanding how the system works.
Guild leveling/currency is a completely separate system then rated battlegrounds. You'll earn the same amount of conquest points and battleground rating whether you run with people in your guild or outside provided you're winning the same number of battlegrounds. Essentially you only have a personal rating, no group ratings exist in rated battlegrounds.
The only advantage of running in your guild is that you'll help earn guild experience or currency as well as battleground rating/ conquest points.
Oh, and a guild group is any
group
with at least 75% of it's members from the same guild. Not a
guild
with 75% of it's members in the same group. Otherwise larger guilds would literally never earn guild experience from group activities.
