How much do tennis ball brands matter?

Over the weekend, for a doubles league match my partner was about to open a can of Wilson Championship extra duty balls as our team was designated to open balls. I stopped him and said “I’ll open my Penn balls” since I thought a more “dead” ball would maybe give us a slight edge.

Funny enough, I opened the can of Penns and the opponent said “ew Penns. You don’t have US Opens? I have a can of Wilson US Opens we can use”. I said “sure that’s fine” since it didn’t matter too much to me even though I just opened the can. So we played with his US open balls.

Now I’m shopping around for tennis balls to figure out what I should use as my opponent rejected my tennis balls 😭. I’m considering a slightly obscure brand like Diadem or Yonex or something.

In your experience, which balls do you prefer/ not prefer?

During trick tower, Gon’s group has to stay in a comfortable waiting room for 50 hours, but Hisoka and other finishers are shown just waiting at the bottom of the tower doing nothing for the entire time?

Seems like the 50 hour penalty was a good thing because Gon’s group got to stay in a comfortable room with beds and food and drink and books; meanwhile all the candidates that finished early are shown at the bottom of the tower doing absolutely nothing the entire time but just sitting against the tower wall
