Did you like Blitzball?I really didn't...it was hard to follow.I liked how their was a sport in the game but I just didn't know how to play so that is why I don't like it.

I thought Blitzball was okay, except I wasn't any good at it. I don't think I have ever won a match lol. I found it difficult to master the game. My players would run out of HP quickly and it was hard to gain levels. It tended to frustrate me a lot of the time! I nearly won a match once but in the last few seconds, the other team got a goal! :Angry:

I try not to play it very often!

Yes, it did get annoying after a while. I couldn't even win one game so it got rather frustrating. I try to not play Blitzball whenever I play Final Fantasy X. If I do have to play it, I lose on purpose. I tried to win a lot of times but I would just lose! It was impossible for my character's to gain levels as well. It was just plain annoying. It's fun but difficult at times lol.

I believe that Blitzball was one of the best mini games in a FF. I loved that sport. It was like football under the water. My team rocked. My players were high level. Also, there was a time, that I only played FFX only for Blitzball. Moreover, sometimes you could get some really cool items after beating the tournaments, like Dark Matter or Underdog's Secret.

i have to agree with Boco on this one, i really have to say this mini game was one of the greatest in a final fantasy ever, but later on in the game once you got to be scouting all of Spira and you scouted brother after starting a new season, it was just to easy...i mean hey, it's not right to score around 10 goals against the Ronsos

About half the hours I have logged in my master file are from Blitzball. I've never lost a game, either. ;) The Crystal Cup was by far the hardest one to win; I never had a problem with any other match.

My current team is:
Tidus
Brother
Rin
Vilucha
Wakka
Jumal

My only complaint is that the AI was lacking the "intelligence" part, and that the playing field could have had vertical levels in the sphere but did not. Either way, it's still very fun and addicting.

Hint: It's insanely easy to win with the Jecht Shot.

Blitzball is easily the best Minigame in Final Fantasy.

Blitzball is simple, yet it adds a whole other dimension to the game. Sometimes you'll be stuck in a dungeon or your too tired to hammer through the storyline and actually absorb it. Blitzball is fun alternative that lets you burn a few hours.

Yes, its easy and if you lose your pretty bad. But hey, it beats Tetra Master.
