Has Anyone Beaten the First Blitzball Game Before?

[~Death~Stalker~910]

im jus wonderin has ne1 beat it cause i aint...i got 2 overtime then i had 2 leave

[Tavrobel]

Yes. Play defensively until Tidus is able to use Jecht Shot for a goal. If you don't have it, go back and get it.

[Laddy]

I did.

[Jessweeee♪]

Not fairly :p


I used the goal glitch :p

[blackmage_nuke]

I scored 2 or so goals with Jecht shot then i passed the ball in between 2 players repeatedly until time finished

[Eiko Guy]

I beat it all the time now that i am a pro. Wish they made it a seperate game altogether but made it make more since. three dimensions need to be used.

[theundeadhero]

Wakka scored the winning goal in triple overtime.

[Psychotic]

I won 2-0. Tidus scored a Jecht shot, and Wakka scored the second.

First time I played it, though, I lost 4-0.

[Namelessfengir]

yeah you can hide back in the aurochs goal or if you play like your scared :skull::skull::skull::skull:less you can kick their ass and level up most players.

go manual 1

make sure that all your players get the ball and pass it off a few times.
get the kickers kicking and jassu and datto passing back and forth

never let the goers get the ball if you do your pretty much screwed unless your very lucky or skilled.

during the first game jecht shot is only good for one shot so in the begining pass get tidus or datto close while avoiding encounters

the best i ever got was a win of 5 - 0

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

i lost the first time but won everytime after that/ best win was 4-0

[leader of mortals]

best win 4-1

worst loss 5-0:eek:

[ReloadPsi]

Once, but it's not worth it anyway. You get a Strength Sphere (not particularly useful; I would've preferred something much rarer) and when Wakka's handing the ball to the Aurochs after the game, he's handing them the cup instead.

[Rianoa]

ive only won once 4-2 it took many atempts but you dont get much for your atempts

[~Death~Stalker~910]

how do u get the jecht shot b4 tha game???

[Enjolras]

On the boat from Kilika to Luca, if you approach the blitzball sitting on the bow deck, you have the oppurtunity to play a mini-game which, if you succeed, will give you the Jecht Shot. But, if you fail, you won't be able to get it for a long time, so I suggest you save first.

[~Death~Stalker~910]

how do u close these thangs i gave up an moved on but...thanks 4 tha help neways guys

How? Tidus doesn't have enough HP at that stage to use 2 Jecht Shots. You'd be lucky to squeeze in 2 Sphere Shots even.

The first half, you HAVE to make sure Tidus gets his hand on the ball a few times at the very least. He needs to level up to be able to use Jecht Shot in the next half, you see. You may want to take a few pot shots at goal in order to do so, but be aware that Graav will restart with the ball after each successful goal and Raudy will after each failed one. It may be in your best interest to deprive the Goers of the ball entirely for the first half.

Jecht Shot takes about 30-40 seconds of animation (depending on how far out you are from goal, whether the goalie has Super Goalie [which he doesn't in this game]) so if you continue to pass around the ball until about 2:00-2:10 in the second half and then charge up and Jecht Shot, you'll get it in just in time for Wakka's return and you won't have to worry about the Goers restart.

With Wakka on field, it's you chance to either close out the game or level it (because the Goers may have scored 1 or 2 goals at the beginning of the halves, depending on whether Letty or Graav got it and whether Keepa lucks in for you xD). You'll either force it into overtime where by this stage, the Aurochs should all be Level 2-3 and be able to hold off Bickson and Abus a little better, or just win the thing. xD

I found this way is the best way to guarantee victory. I've never had a 4-0 win like some others have but I've never lost more than once which was my first time.


It's no big deal anyway. If you were to lose the Luca game and hold off on Blitzball until you get to the Moonflow/Guadosalam, you'd have recruited Ropp on the Mi'ihen Highroad, Kyou at Djose and Miyu at Moonflow and suddenly, the Aurochs kick ass (maybe Wedge at Luca too)

[~Death~Stalker~910]

i told yall i gave up on it

[Old Manus]

I won 5-0

I just wanted to say that because I wanted to show how awesome I am.

[Jess]

I mightve scored once each half. Or i might just have been thinking about another game with the albhed psyces. They were equally as annoying.

Can't score with Jecht Shot in the first half. Tidus isn't level 3 yet and thus cannot equip any techs.

Must've been another game.

And yes, the Psyches in early stages are the biggest pain in the arse. Just one word. Nimrook.

[Heath]

First time I played I managed to lose 3-0 but when I actually knew what I was doing, in my second playthrough I managed win 3-1. Two goals from Tidus and one from Wakka. Can't complain. I think it's nice that it's actually challenging to win, because after a point Blitzball becomes really quite easy.

[Levian]

I usually lose but I actually won one time :p After that blitzball soon turns into a very easy game ;o

[cally777]

First time I was getting beat 3-0 and I was so mad I reset! The way they build the whole thing up with u supposed to b this amazing player and the Goers taunting u, and then u get pwned!

I did eventually win by being very defensive (without the JS). My best score is 3-0, revenge for that original humiliation.

:choc::choc::choc:

[Cloud88]

I lost this one the first time i played but i've won every time since. Best record for that match is 5-0. My best record for any match though is 16-0. True!:D

[Tallulah]

I never even try. I dislike blitzball. :mad2:

Though I do train up my characters towards the end, and recruit Biggs and Wedge (one is a great goalie!) and get all the benefits (Wakka's Overdrives, etc.) Then it gets to easy. :(
