**I'm not on anyone's staff**I have seen both, and have tested the Hyper Cell. The Mastermind is good. Fairly clean through the heads, @ OOB surface, and has a great motion. Reads the lane well and can handle oil. The Hyper Cell, IMO, is stronger. Especially off the spot. We tested the Hyper Cell on a 43ft 23.75mL THS, 40ft 26.25mL challenge pattern and a 47ft 23.2mL challenge pattern. It was usable on all 3 patterns and allowed a lot of miss room to the outside on all 3 patterns. Once they broke down, a move to the inside was made, and the Hyper Cell didn't quit. As long as you have some head oil, it was great. If you liked the Original Cells, I think it's a good call. But honestly the Mastermind is a good ball too. Brunswick has been making some great stuff.
