I am a stroker as well, my layouts for these balls are in my profile, you can compare with your own.
My Illusion with a basic pin in ring label drill works well on lighter shades of mediums. It's very versatile to release changes, can be violent or even rolling. It can either display a nice backend or smooth midlane depending on your hand. It may be possible to fit two slots with one ball depending on layout, surface prep, and release.
My Pluto is easily three to five boards stronger than the Illusion. It's possible to own all four of these the Cell, Pluto, Illusion, and Neptune and cover a wide range of conditions.
In my personal experience the Venus covers the same amount of boards as the Pluto but it does so earlier and smoother for a more "predictable" read and reaction.
