Balance for bonus points and the win assuming your opponents cant.
The problem with this strategy is what you will do with these balls once you have them. Either you end up starving yourself, being forced to let go of a ball, or you try to score – which puts the balls right back into the opponent's hands. And that's not including the other 3 balls that you can't control.

That being said, this idea is still very useful as a delaying tactic.
