The balls would depend on whether you face mostly lighter oil patterns or heavier oil patterns. If you're setting up for tournaments, often 3 balls seems hardly adequate.

For lighter oil patterns:
Slay/R
Bruiser or Power Groove Teal/Purple (solid)
Ultimate Inferno

For heavier oil patterns:
Inferno
Ultimate Inferno
Warp Zone

For local leagues PLUS torunaments:
Slay/R
Bruiser or Power Groove Teal/Purple (solid)
Inferno
Ultimate Inferno
Warp Zone

Well, since we don't know exactly what your are looking for, I will go ahead and toss a dart out there anyway.

Heavy to med heavys-Warp Zone, just polish for meds
Med--Inferno(Original), Bruiser
Lighter-Power Groove Polished
Spare

Unless you're a tournament/collegiate/or regional player you probaly can get away with three benchmark syle balls withouth needing something for the Extremes(heavy, dry, short, long).  If all you have to worry about is a house shot and how it breaks down you don't need the extremes, you can just adjust and chase the oil line in with your benchmark ball.  I think you could get away with a set-up like this

Heavier Side of Medium:  Inferno with a fairly strong drill(for stronger backend reaction) or a polished Ultimate Inferno(for strong arcing reaction)
Mediums(and fresh house patterns):  Time Zone(for more flip) or Nemesis/Bruiser (for more control)
Broken down house shots and drying heads:  Monster Slay/R or the Green/Red Powergroove
