From what I have used and seen on flatter patterns......two balls come to mind.

Visionary Gladiator Solid
Storm Hy-Road

NOT house walls....what have you used and done well with...reads the pattern well and is adjustable to speed and release changes.

Storm Paradigm pro-pin. Very smooth and just seems to ignore the pattern. I've used it on everything from almost totally flat, low-volume shots to PBA Shark.

Lane #1 Tsunami when I need something a little stronger.

Medium light- awesome finish so smooth it will never jump on you
Medium medium heavy- awesome flip gets good length and turns hard enough that even with carry down it will create the angle I need
Heavy to flood- you cant beat the WMB I personally cant get the ball to stay right on anything less than a flood.

Columbia Rival, and maybe the Avalanche Solid as well as the Street Rod and T-Road.

From my current arsenal, the NS² with its label drilling is a deadly force on long oil and slick lane surfaces. Unbelievable how well it works on such turf, and inspires confidence.

On light conditions, my Revolution Renegade is a very nice and controllable option. Straight shot down, no big hook, but a reliable ball that keeps me out of most trouble.

Heaviest - Columbia Reaction Arc
Heavy - Lanemasters Yeah Baby
Medium Heavy - 900 Global S-75
Medium - 900 Global Maniac
Medium Light - Roto-Grip Neptune
Light - (I can't remember ever seeing a light, flat pattern so no recommendation)

All make a smooth, predictable arc to the pocket.  Nothing fancy, but amazingly effective.

Triple X-factor.
Though it doesnt matter what ball i use, i tend to score pretty OK on flat conditions.
