Hi guys! Its me again. Its been more than 2 years since i first asked for suggestions on my arsenal. I'm thinking of upgrading my arsenal once again. Hope you guys can help me out like last time.

Here's my current lineup.
Domination Nano Solid (Already Retired but still in my bag)
Crux Pearl
IQ Tour Fusion
Rocket
Rotogrip Scream (thinking of replacing with a Storm ball)

The Crux Pearl has been my favorite ball for the last year and i am guilty of overworking it. The IQ Tour Fusion is still a good step down to the Crux Pearl. But after it, the Rocket is a bit confusing for me. It doesn't move or react like my 1st and 2nd ball. Well, as for the Scream i just love its color thats why I keep it. But i think there are better Dry/Weak balls out there from Storm.

Basically, i'm thinking of this scenario (I need to dispose 1 or 2 balls).

Get a ball stronger than the Crux Pearl, then use the Crux Pearl as an alternative or as a 2nd ball out of the bag. Then choose between the IQTF and Rocket for the Medium conditions (can you guys comment which is better?), then either retain the Scream or get a new Storm ball for Dry/Weak condition. (Can you guys recommend 1 Storm weak ball as well?)

Thanks in advance i know this is a very long post already.

On a guess, I'd say the following: Alpha Crux, Crux Pearl, IQ Tour Fusion, Joy Ride.
League: Pitch Purple, Destiny Magenta
Testing: MVP
Interests: Black Widow, Proof Solid, Idol Pearl

Thanks for the reply. So by getting the Alpha Crux i get a stronger ball than the Crux Pearl, retain the Crux Pearl, then choose the IQ Tour Fusion over the Rocket then get the Joy Ride to replace the Scream.

How does the Alpha Crux and the Joy Ride improve my arsenal?


Thanks!!!

i would think the rocket would be stronger than the fusion. depending how used it is (im guessing very used since it was in the post 2 years ago) i would get rid of the fusion. you look to need a benchmark type ball.storm has the IQ solid. roto has the haywire. you could also probably get a rocket or hyroad to work in that spot with a pin down layout and some surface

Since nobody else was able to share their expertise before i had to order my new ball. I went ahead and got the Alpha Crux.

So now, here's what i have.

Alpha Crux
Crux Pearl
Domination Nano Solid
IQ Tour Fusion
Rocket
Scream
And a Blue Dot Spare Ball

What do you guys think about the range of balls i have. And if i have to get rid of one ball, which would this be? I'm thinking of choosing between the Domination Nano Solid and IQ Tour Fusion.

Hope you guys can help me out.


Thanks.
