Now first of all do you think that this is a good "sport" to have in FFX, is if fun?

Also seperately from your vote, please tell us if you beat the first blitzball game Tidus plays that is held in Luca for the tournament.

Its fun, its not a game that you could play for a whole day and ignore the main game of the FFX but its a good little side game.

Also no i have not beaten the tournament in Luca, but iam trying still.

I was so terribly confused how to play it at first glance. The controls and mechanics made no sense to me. The player's you start off with are clearly outclassed by all the players on the other team. The only good player you start off with is Tidus who has an unlimited contract.

I only played it just to get the rewards required for Wakka's overdrive/celestial weapon. This of course required me to get use to it since those key items were miles away. So obviously I needed a lot darn experience =/.

If you have Jecht Shot. Then the Luca Goers should be a piece of cake.

I thought the league got boring later when you were tring to get Wakka's stuff. But in hte middle when you get a good team it can be fun.

 

On my first playthrough I lost in Luca, but the second time I had the Jecht Shot and won easy.

I spent some time trying to get the extra stuff, like Jecht Shot 2 and some others, before I knew it, i had spent 15 hours on this game, nevertheless, it gets ultra boring most of the times

I enjoyed it and liked the fact that they through in some side entertainment. I spent a decent amount of time playing blitzball because I liked forming my team and stuff. I prefer the card games from VIII and IX, however, over Blitzball.

I myself don't see why it should be stickied...Not to be rude, but making a thread sticky is not always a good idea. A better idea is to keep a thread active. Or each time more news arrives you make a new thread where you can link to the old news. Making things sticky is most of the time a bad idea if you ask me

Besaid Aurochs only.  Except that one Al Bhed guy who is really fast, he is at the temple where you get Ixion IIRC.

I think one time I tried to buy all the best players from the other teams.

How many people won the first game?

Also, the "Goers" is the stupidest name for a team ever.  I bet it was a bad translation, should have been "Chargers" or something like that.  Luca Chargers.  Much better.

They should still have translated it as Chargers.

And the only math you need is how many players Tidus can knock out with Jecht Shot (Hint: it's 2)

ok, the order is the way they appear going left to right. Anti-Venom 2 is the last one and you cant get that until you have Drain Tackle 2 and you cant get that one unless you get Venom Tackle.

so if you have the other 2, you are set cuz you can only get them in one order
