all origional players, except i recruited brother and wakka also. too good to let up. so, my team stands as this.

Left-Foward Tidus
Right-Foward Wakka
Mid-Field Brother
Left-Def. Jassu
Right-Def. Botta
Goalie Keepa

i forget if the left and right Def.s are right, it was either of them or the others...

[Sir Andrew]

Yeah, my players are around level 70 and Tidus is ahead of them all with general stats. took a long time for me to do this though... need patience really.

[Lunatic_Pandora]

an easy way to get players is to just play exhibition if u have the airship that is and wen the person ur after has 1 game left save ur game and keep reseting until they get released from there current team im unbeaten as of yet reset my data so my chars are low levels but i have

FWD ~ Tidus * default player*

FWD ~ Nedus / Datto (depends if i want the speed or the END + Nedus speed is ment to rise from 30 ... wen he levels up more) *Nedus dock 1 of luca and datto either original aurocs or the aurocs locker room in luca*

MD ~ Kiyuri (pretty avrg in all areas apart from her block) *SS liki i think its called boat ride btween Luca & kilika girl by the steps to lower deck

DEF ~ Ropp ( brillaint block good atack ok endurance and pass hes in the travel agency at the top of mihen highroad)

DEF ~ Naida (good speed to catch those ANOYING gaudos good high atack low endurance tho higher than average pass and a good block)

GOAL ~ Nimrook ( yeah i used the exhibition to get him fast 18 CA to start no1 can beat him people catch up to him later on but then his CA starts to pick up and he becomes nearly unbeatable

ill list a few good players for u new starters to pick up

FWD ~ Tidus
~ Shami * found in luca camera women by the fountaine*
~ Wedge *top of the stairs by the locker rooms *
~ Datto * original aurocs good END and great speed*

MD ~ Zev ronso *found at dock5 luca slow but good pass and endurance
~ Jassu *put jassu here he can play better in MD

DEF ~ Zalitz *found up from shami towards the video dome like botta but is alot better replace botta for him *
~ Ropp *top of mihen highroad an upgraded jassu basically brill DEF*

GOAL ~ Jumal *found outside the cafe were kimahri hits the other ronso man on the bench hes good until u can get either nimrook or miyu

~ Miyu *u will have to wait until the moonflow for her shes the girl in red on the NORTH side of the moonflow on the bench

out of these for a not brilliant but winning combination have
FWD ~ Tidus
~ Shami
MD ~ Jassu
DEF ~ Ropp
~ Zalitz
GOAL ~ Jumal

u will definatly win a fair few games with this team until u can get better players later on


have fun and messege me if u need anymore help

[Lunatic_Pandora]

and sorry about that shami is the girl with the mic not the camera =P

[penance]

mt team isfw i have tidus and eigarmid ihave brother(hes the best in the game no doubt)in the back i have doram and lekkamand goalie nimrook i always win with these and brother is the best get him before its too late

[Hannya]

I tried to put Nedus on my team, but he was just sooooo slow. Though his stats are like an onion knights and he looks cool (I wish I had a gas mask ).

[holy_ultima]

The only advice i can give you is get Brother(One of the Best)
also for goal keeper get Nimrook from the al bhed team...
But kappa is pretty good too so you can choose..
Here's my team line up:

LF - Tidus
RF - Vilucha(he's in the house at Besaid Village)
MF - Brother(Pilot of the airship)
LD - Ropp(he's in the Travel Agency at the Mi'hen Highroad
RD - Wedge(He's in the Main Gate of Luca Stadium)
GK - Nimrook(He's in the Corridor of the Airship)

I suggest that if you get to your highest level ,use those line up...

It's only a suggestion though

[Ralz]

My team was...

RF: Tidus- He has high Shoot.
LF: Wakka- He had high Shoot as well.
MF: Brother- He had amazing Pass, Atk, End, and HP.
LD: Letty- He had good Pass, and End.
RD: Botta- He had good End.
GK: Keepa- He seemed to keep a high Catch.

If there are any suggestions, they are most welcome.

I'm not a Blitzball "noob" by any means, because on my last file, I had every player at level 60 at least, but because i've decided to start a new file, I do have a few questions on how to recruit good players at the generally early stage i'm at in the game, the reason I don't remember all the good players is because this is the first time i've played FFX for 2-3 years now. Anyway, i'm currently at Macalania, and I have the original Auroch's in my team (there so bad at Blitzing!), and i'm in need of good players, so are there any good players near the location i'm at? Or should I just wait until I get the Airship, then browse Luca for players?

Thanks.

[Dimi]

I recall that once you get in the airship, you're able to recruit some good players like Brother and Wakka. Brother's insanely fast on the playing field. Wakka's a strong player. A strong shooter as well.

Luca has some good players as well. Trying recruiting one of the Goers once their contracts expires with their team. Hope this helps. ^^

So, basically I should wait until I get the airship and scout around Luca?

[AxeluteZero]

Yeah, that's a good plan. In all honesty, you can play Blitz for HOURS and HOURS anytime during the whole game. I played a lot after I got the airship because that's when basically all the players were available to recruit that were worth recruiting. I'd play through the game until you get the airship and then start playing Blitz more often, but it's not like you couldn't make a decent party anyway.

[KeyranSolo]

Ok guys, thanks for the advice. Appreciate it

It's up to you if you want to or not. Personally, I'd recruit Brother and Wakka first to just try them out. And if you don't like them, then you can always get someone else to fill in their spot.

[Ace]

Well call me old fashioned but i felt the need to stick with the aurochs all of themm except for datto i replaced him with wakka and just kept leveling them up and i maybe lost two games it just takes careful planning and good strategy to win.

[IrvineKinneas]

started a new game so my team is still pretty mediocre here it is

RF-Tidus
LF- Shaami
MF-Jassu
RD-Botta
LD-Miyu (once better will make gk)
GK-Kyou (Used to be MF but got rid of Jumal)

[ZantetsukeN]

I love Blitzball! I have a file dedicated to Blitzball, whenever I feel like Blitz-ing. My team is as follows.

RF- Tidus
LF- Argai Ronso or Bickson
MF- Lakkam (her passing and endurance are rediculous!)
RD- Jassu (I had him released from the team, and got him back when his contract expired, and he became awesome!)
LD- Kyou
GK- Keepa
LF-

[Alpha]

My team is as follows:
RF- Tidus (of couse)
LF- Blappa (had some amazing techs after playing for the Psyches for years)
MF- Can't remember name (short-haired, goggled Al Bhed)
RD- Ropp (*drools at power*)
LD- Again forgot the name, but he's a Guado, and I don't use him for standard defence, but he gets given the ball, speeds away into open water while my forwards move close to goal, then long range passes for the alley-oop
GK- Jumal (though nothing gets past Ropp)

That first game of Blitz had grinded my gears for multiple playthroughs, until I consulted some online tips, and managed to get two goals with Tidus, and one with Wakka (Hint: the key is Letty).

Anybody who thinks Blitzball is easy should just keep a B-defence player, and sub them in for a greater challenge (provided your opposition has decent offense to begin with)

[chocobo]

I just spam Jecht Shot at lower levels...
Makes Tidus level up fast.

[Josh]

i did not play blitzball for between six months and a year yet when i played it again i was able to kill the other team with about a 6-1 victory. but i have only one of the aurochs left but i have zazi guado for one of my wings because he has decent shot but he does he sleep shot and i also have pah guado because he has a really good area of passes that just increase his already great pass but i cannot remember the name of my gaolie but i found her at the calm lands i believe.

[KeyranSolo]

Is their a way of getting really quick easy EXP? I want to get a few of my players to max level, I heard something about a passing trick, but not sure what the details are....Help would be appreciated

[Xithor]

I thought that passing to them would get them exp. but only when they had to break tackles or defend against someone did my defense get exp. My front three get their exp from shooting and scoring but other then that I'd say pass to your defense bring them up, let them take on one or two people then pass.

[1DownShroom]

is Rin good?
