I don't think there's a huge gap between the Saga and the Venus, I own both of them and they play off of each other pretty well. The Venus is the main ball I've been using on leagues with a THS this season because of it's versatility and how it smooths out the wet/dry reaction which I see alot. If there's a little too much oil for the Venus, the Saga works for me because of the lower RG core. If the lanes are soaked, I go to the Battle. I think the Saga, Venus, Battle and a Spare Tire are a good 4 ball arsenal. Just be sure to know what you're going to use each ball for when you go to get them drilled.
