Some quick picks are good, with all methods you have to be lucky to win. All these different methods are no substitute for buying quick picks. Indeed combining your own numbers with quick pick numbers might be a good strategy.
I have won $500 off a $4 Lottario quick pick ( early bird price) not long ago. But generally speaking you are better off doing your own numbers. At least that way you might get some of your money back. To rely on quick picks alone to deliver is asking for a lot of free ticket winnings , or 3 numbers if you are lucky.
