What are your thoughts on throwing 30 lb Sufix 832 braid on my 7'7 medium heavy Shimano Compre flipping Stick? Is the line to light to throw a 1 oz jig or like a 3/4 oz flipping weight in pads? What would you feel comfortable throwing with that Rod reel and line combo?

I threw a 1oz on a 7'2" MH Cumara with a 20 lb Sniper FC leader and had no problem at all. I would probably have preferred to have a H stick, but didn't have mine with me.

The brand doesn't matter.

If the rod specs are 1oz and over you should be good.

I wouldn't feel comfortable throwing into a matted grass area, but 30# would be fine in a pad field, just keep that in mind if a fish gets caught up in a bunch of stems.

I use 832 #65. Cast great and will not break.

Trying 40# Kast King on a lighter rod. I'll use it around open water cover. Docks, fallen trees or branches...with a Jig or Worm.

I'd go with 40lb. Not all that much thicker, but is quite a bit stronger.

Up to the rod not the line to handle the weight of a lure.  I use 15# in heavier cover, 20# if I'm snakehead fishing.

I use the 20# 832 in HEAVY cover and have had no problems.  One of the ponds I fish you could walk across it the weeds are so thick.  You should be fine with the 30# 832.  

I'm going to a lighter weight braid. The 65# knots are to big. Especially with the micro's. I used 40# yesterday and liked it. I'm also going to try 30#. 

The 40# leader knots are much smaller and the line casts great and feels great on the spool. I was trowing traps with it.

Right now I have 40 lb Sufix 832 on for those lure weights (3/4 - 1 oz) and it feels perfect. When I started to throw lighter lures in the 3/8 range the line felt a little heavy and affected casting distance- it would slow down quite a bit near the end of the cast. I think 30 lb would be perfectly fine for your application.
