I used a strong Rogue Cell (2000)the 1st game of team event playing about 10-7 for 191. Switched to a Mutant Cell (2000 and oil shined)the 2nd game, started inching in 12-15 to 7 for 275. Game 3 stayed with the Mutant Cell and kept chasing it left, I struck every time on the left lane and had an open on the right lane for 207. Nothing amazing but a pretty good bracket set. Ended up making around $2,600 profit.
D/S were a bit different, we didn't even start 'til almost 1am. 16 bowlers on our squad (no brackets)and we followed some DONK classified teams. Not a very good draw. Used a variety of my weaker Rogue Cell and a Cell Pearl for a 597 in doubles (pretty bad), my partner had 660+ so we did OK. Singles was more of the same, ended up with about the same score tried playing inside around 5th arrow, and actually ended up having a decent look with my Cell Pearl playing up 8ish.
Strong balls are pretty good, but I wouldn't suggest using much surface.
