I'm not sure in which, "arena" your talking about, since you didnt mention it I will assume BJJ competition, but I'll say it for em all anyway cause I'm bored.

BJJ - While I prefer the bottom of the gaurd to the top of the gaurd in BJJ, I always look for the takedown in competition/standing to ground rolling. Most of the takedowns I like to use put me in side control, or with an arm controlled (like a hip throw or foot sweep).

No-Gi - Takedowns, takedowns, takedowns, I have no preference between top or bottom of the gaurd in No Gi, so I look for takedowns, if I get the takedown, I'll be in top of full gaurd, top of half gaurd, or side control.

MMA - Takedowns to the top, my game from my bottom submission/control wise is alot better in grappling, but when the punches are being thrown, put me on top.
