Was MNKE's before Sony's hit the market, then Sony VTC3's until you couldn't find them became Sony VTC4, now presently my LG HB6's, hit just as hard as I remember my VTC3's to hit. Regulated single battery mods Samsung 25R's and LG HE2's
You ever tried the higher amp ones? I tend to avoid them seeing as they don't have longer life.
Currently, no matter what a manufacturer like Efest prints, there are no batteries over 30amp CDR, labelled amp limits like on Efest Purple's are pulse burst amp limit and only 20amp CDR. Only 2 true 30amp are the VTC3 and HB6, though the VTC4 can comfortably run at 30amp it is a 20 to 25amp CDR battery.

Check out @Baditude and @Mooch 's blogs, Mooch especially has a break down of stress test results on many batteries out there, worth taking a look at.

I've just got lg he4 and they claim 35 amp I thing I've seen vamped say 40 amp and I think aspire too.
Seen several tests on those Aspire's, but I was sub-ohm vaping on mechs for a long time, I just naturally do not trust an ICR near my face, call me superstitious, I'll stick to my IMR and INR. The HE4 is not much different from the HE2, just an upgrade in Mah, both are still 20amp CDR, 35amp is their pulse rating.
Here are the batteries I like....
All around best choice below 20A = LG HG2
All around best choice above 20A = Sony VTC4
Only choice above 30A = LG HB6
Runners-up include Samsung 25R for up to around 20A and Samsung 30Q for up to 15A-20A.
The HE4 and VTC5 are good 20A batteries though.

There aren't any 18650 batteries with genuine ratings over 30A.

For me - Efest Purple IMR 18650 20A 3100mAh
I do not go above 15W, so for me mah is more important than current. One battery is good for almost two days.

Currently a couple Imren "40 amp" 3000mah in my sig150 TC. Was skeptical about them at first but I'm quite pleased. Normally some VCT5 though
