I was looking at building a 3 ball arsenal and im not sure. what do u guys think of this.
Heavy-CELL
Med-Illusion
light-Neptune,Venus not sure which would fit better.
I like to play anywhere outside 20 i am a stroker style player 15mph speed and about 200 revs. looking for something with predictable breakpoint but still have good continuation. also what kind of drilling would u suggest for each. also u can suggest balls outside of roto grip.

Well I think I might throw a Pluto in for Meds......the Pluto is such a great compliment to the Cell.
I drilled my Illusion very weak and it is a great drier lane ball with the shine knocked off....
As for drill patterns....put your favorite layouts on them and tweak the surfaces as all 3 balls I mentioned are so very surface adjustment friendly. I am sure you will get some better ideas on drillings, but figured I would take a shot.
Hope this helps!

Get the Neptune for light, but take it up in grit, because it is at a pretty aggressive grit polish (1500), I'd say take it up to 4000 with polish and it would do very nice, but the Neptune is a very controllable ball

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.
