I hate Blitzball...

Its great when you get into it. If you find it too hard, read a guide. If you find it too easy, try the double/triple top scorer challenge. The idea is to get more than one of your players the top scorer at the end of a tournament/league. I have and its made it a whole new kind of game. You get to use more players to the full instead of just passing to your best forward all the time. And you get double/triple prizes too!

My current team, Tidus, Zazi Guado, Linna/Shuu, Zalitz, Wedge, Kyou. Ave Level 45, just gained the Jupiter Sigil. Linna is my favourite player, great all-round midfielder/attacker, if a little high maintenance!

Well, my team are all on roughly LVL 91, Tidus has Jecht Shot 2, Wakka has Aurochs Spirit and last time I checked, my wins was 210. So, yeah, I like Blitzball. Seriously, get some decent players, and play to your hearts content. It gets so much better when you can actually beat the Al Bhed Psyches by taking potshots from the half-way line. I recommend keeping Jassu, taking Wakka, let Datto go but then take him back after a while,(his speed can reach about 80), Kyou, and find a good goalie. This is quite possibly the best mini-game the FF series has seen in years.:)

Also, make sure your BB system is based on manual, so that the system will rely on your actions. If it's not manual, you will find BB very boring, no doubt about that.

I liked and played it a lot. Plus I used Wakka alot (in the story) so having his Celestial Weapon was plus.

Loved it. Best mini game in all FF. Very fun when you get a decent team, only problem is when your team gets too good and there's not challenge anymore. (Jetch shot 2 is a cheap move.)

At first I had no idea how to play it, but once I got the hang of it I kinda enjoyed it. I've spent hours playing it - for whatever reason - but these days I don't really bother to play Blitzball when I'm playing through the game... and I don't care about Wakka's limit break anyway, so..

Blitzball was a little too statistical and mathematical for me to enjoy. I would have preferred an action-oriented minigame requiring the full use of the Playstation 2 controller, or, at least, a methodology similar to those seen in sports console games.

I dont hate it, but god, do I suck at it >< I didnt bother to play it to get Wakka's slot and celestial weapon because of how badly I suck >.>

i liked it after i got the girl from the calm lands. she roxs my soks!! i thought it was really fun late in the game when you had the airship and nuttin left to do bu go and cut up sin. it gave you a whole little distraction

I hated it until i got all the super pwnage peeps that make up my team now its like i don't do anything and I win my goalies save is like oober crazy only one shot has been made on him O_o

I hate blitzball so much when ever I play the game and you have to play it I always give it to my bro cause he loves the game.

On my current playthrough I have no new players, just the original Besaid Aurochs, and I still kill everyone. Tidus starts with the two most overpowered shots in the game. Letty gets enough pass to handle his role (Nap Pass rocks). Early on, Tidus's experience will skyrocket from repeated Jecht Shots. Once he gets Golden Arm, he can Sphere Shot from the midway point and score on any goalie but Nimrook (although you can beat even him this way occasionally). If Botta and Jassu fall behind, just spam their exp once you pull ahead in a game. Tidus and Letty are about ten levels higher than anyone else in the game at the moment, and with Elite Defense and Wither Tackles, they can strip most centers (who usually swim dumbly into the three forward players after they get the Blitzoff). Datto is my only pathetic player (about 10 levels below the average player), 'cause you don't need him, but he has Volley Shot and Nap Shot, and he still gets goals on occasion.

Is there any benefit to playing Blitzball after you receive the World Champion, or is it just a clever little mini-game after that point on with no rewards?

Largely, no. You can get some item rewards from it, including Teleport, Friend, and Return Spheres, Three Stars, and Underdog's Secrets, but those are about the only rewards worth anything, and you can get them from the Calm Lands fiend training center quicker.

True, because if you have the W. Champ, you also have the airship, and you should be strong enough to get all these things quite easily with it.

But if you play blitz earlier in the game, then they will come in handy.
