People play a few game of Blitzball and give up.Its not going to be easy straight away.You've got to stick at it for a while,play as many games as u can.Yes you will lose but every time your characters will level up.A key point is that the more a player handles the ball the more exp they get so just try swimming away from their attackers and waste the game......you will level faster

And Elaron i know what u mean about characters not leveling.My Datto who is a RF just won't level.He's still level 9 while Tidus and Jumal are level 29

Your goalie should be Jumal found near the intersection between the stadium,the theatre and the main town.

Biggs and Wedge can be found just up from the save point are u beam down to.They stand by the posts that lead up to the seats

And what positions do i play wedge and biggs in?

And what about my other 3 players to play?

get jumal for now but after the psyches let go of nimrook then get him he is the best!

and when you get airship, get brother (the pilot) because he is the best player in the game.


And i have only lost like 3 games total not including the first against the Goers. I beat them 3-2 in overtime

[psychosyd]

Tidus is by far my best character, but I talked with ya for a bit Nix, and It seems you are on the right track now...

But for you people who cannot blitz, don't waste your time trying to win games with the current Auroch team, they just suck. Recruit a team, THEN play... releasing the ones on the team currently, they are a waste of time.

Jumal is a must have goalie until you can hopefully get your hands on Nimrook, who is arguably the best goalie in the game of blitz. Brother is EASILY the best defender there is... make sure you get him, hes easy to get

FOr you wakka fans, Wakka DOES offer some ok shot, a good suppor to Tidus, but his speed is a letdown, and other players outshine him

I haven't lost a blitzball game for ages! And since I got Jecht Shot it's been always a difference of 4-5 goals with the other team.Today I beat the Ronsos 10-0.I never had such highscore.My team has very good attack but not very good defense. I have Tidus and Blappa from Al-Bhed Psyches with Brother assisting and sometimes scoring.In defense I have the two remaining Besaid members: Botta and Jassu.I like them quite a bit though their levels aren't high at all.I would just feel bad to have a whole team from Besaid without any Besaidians .And last of all I have Jumal as my goalie.I liked Keepa but his levels weren't going up and he wasn't learning anything at all... Jumal is way better.Nobody beats me now.

my team is exactly like strider's but i use Nimrook because the Al Bhed were too dumb to resign him.

but anywayz besides brother who are the best defence?

My team is the best! I keep all the oringinal players except Keepa, that fat bastard can't do shit! And I hired most of the Al Bhed Pshyces, some fangs, Some goers. Blitzball is too easy I need a challenge.

Ive lost only once, I have the following people on my team

tidus
brother
giera guado
jassu
botta
durren

Giera is good at everything
brother is good at shooting and catching the opponents ball, 25 i think
tidus is the best shot around like 50
jassu because hes an awesome defencive and attack stats
botta because the same as jassu
and durren because when i first got him he was at level 10 and had a catch of around 20! now he has like 35! hes unstoppable! no one ever gets a goal! MUHAHAHAHAHA

ey ppl.~!!!

thanks. i never knew what the hell i was doing when playing blitzball. i just swam around and waited till i got blocked and got the ball stolen away from me. thanks for the tips everybody.

Ive only played like 7 games so far and i won 2 and tied one. the est I lost by at least 4 goals. But I have a better team now. I use tidus and Lina(i think thats it) at the fowards. I use letty at mid beccause his pass is good. I use jassu and kyou as defenders. No one evemn tries to go through kyou because if the did he would strip the ball. And in goal I use nidia(o something begining with N. Her catch is only 12 but with the defenders blocking it makes it hard for the other team to score.

What I need to know is how to get the jecht shot. were you supose to get it on the ship where he tries it because no commands ever showed up and he messed it up. Is there another way?? and how do you copy techs?? I alwas seem to press it at teh wrong time???

you have to make the character who u want to learn the movego after that character when ur setting up the game, but of course i think u already know that. then u must press it right when the thing goes DING or right before they hit the ball

Ohh ok. Now what about the jecht shot??

Jecht shot 1 rocks, jecht shot 2 almost sucks. I'd rather use the first one. It doesn't matter if it adds 10 points or 5 points to the SH, when Tidus shoots it always goes in. My team:

Vilucha
Graav
Tidus
Naida
Giera Guado
Keepa

Graav is my highest player, at lvl 60 and Tidus is lvl 58 I think.

Oh well forget the jecht shot. I just started a new season and im 3-0-1. I tied the Al Bed because they are about 2x as fast as my players. The sphere shot works just fine for me and slip tackle is the best ability!! Also during the new season no one had scored a goal on me yet because of my nasty goalie Myiu who has a catch of 17 and has super goalie and stick gloves as abilities. And he is only at level 10!! Also I finally got learning new techniques.

What does Jecht Shot 2 do?

jecht shot 2 is a lame addition to the regular jecht shot, it knocks downb three other players in your way and is an invisible shot, meaning u have to control the ball by doing this lil mini-game where the ball spins around a circle and u have to get in the right corner of the thing. Its a giant waste of time

Hmm sounds challenging how do you get it?

It comes up as a Blitz prize........only i finished the league and it wouldnt let me have it said no one in my team could learn it

You have to have all 3 of Tidus's key Techs to get it. But don't bother. The first Jecht Shot is better.

And don't spam, Ultimaflare.
