I'm not sure on the new names for each line.
You should ask Mustang Guy about it.

Crown = high performance eg Cell
Sword = mid performance eg Illusion
shield = entry level eg planet line

Because
1. they've run out of planets, and
2. the initial motif was one of chivalry, mysticism, knights and stuff like that: remember the older names: Epic, Saga, Quest, Battle, Odyssey, Mystic, Oracle, Vision, etc.

They are simply branding all three lines in a common theme.  Now when they run out of "Epic" or "Horizon" ball names, so does that performance point change.  Then we're on here asking is the new ABC ball a replacement for ball XYZ.  Think about Storm's recent past having the "Flash" line still in place when there wasn't a Flash named ball in the lineup.  I remember that was confusing for me.  When a ball comes out of a certain line and new one goes in, it's easier for us to know what replaces what and it's easier to match up the performance we need in our arsenals
