    You, sir -- are the savior of my sanity. I recently started replaying this game and....holy shit, 33 year old me did not remember this segment -- nor the frustrated rage. 2 days and a whiskey later -- I have my victory thanks to you. May you bask in the knowledge that you have saved countless consoles, controllers, and television sets with your video. I bow in humble gratitude.

      There's an easier way than what this video shows. Take tidus and jassu to the bottom of the map and spend the first 5 mins passing back and forth and tidus should grow 2-3 levels as well as jassu and then you'd be able to use jassu to help get 3 easy goals in the 2nd half

      @@rubemevangelista3868 Nope. the one shown here is not the best or safest because there is too many RNG to play with. They might score a goal or they might pass around hence u still need to reset. There also a possibility that they score after you score hence you still need to reset. The leveling up method is much better and safer especially when u have auto save for FFX remastered.
      This is mainly because, once you start the match, make sure u get the ball. Else, reset.
      Once u win the the 1st ball with Letty, change the setting to manual A.
      Then pass the ball to Tidus. Trigger the battle with Abus by using square and take the tackle.
      Once he got tackled(he will definitely keep the ball because Abus tackle is too damn low), run to Jassu.
      Once reach, pass to Jassu . Once Jassu get the ball pass back to Tidus. Move towards the place where Jassu start in the match each time u pass among the 2. This is mainly because, only Abus will come to tackle if u pass around there. Graav will not come to u if u pass it there.
      Once the time end, u will definitely get more than 2 or 3 level. The same with Jassu.
      Now, for the second half, make Jassu the midfielder instead of Letty. If you are playing with a version other than remastered, you can tackle Graav by using this, you might or might not won the ball but in case Graav try to breakthrough, chances are, you might win the ball more than not. But If u use remastered version, just reset until u get the 1st ball.
      When u get the ball, pass it to letty as soon as the game start. swim near the line and trigger the battle with Abus. U will definitely win it.
      Without Jetch Shot
      After that, just pull the opposition towards u.
      If u swim towards the line but at the side of the opponent, both graav and balgerda will move to u. dont let them reach u, and just pass to tidus.
      Move Tidus near the goal and just shoot with sphere shot. u will definitely score as ur shooting will definitely higher than them.
      With Jetch Shot
      Once u win with Abus, pass to Tidus and make Tidus swim towards the goal. Once you are near enough, just shot with Jetch shot.
      *I prefer Sphere shot instead of Jetch Shot because, you might or might not score the 2nd goal with Jetch shot because of the animation, but with Sphere shot, It is more likely than not for you to score 2 or even 3 Goals. You might also opt to score with normal shot if you get high enough level.
      *You can also can use the time wasting method while using this method because, you have a higher possibility winning the ball by tackling Graav as Jassu has a higher attack.

      Don’t be an idiot and bring the whole team with you. Instead lure them away from Tidus first.
      Most of my shots are 1v1. Most of my engagements are 1v1. Even in the first half you have a better than 50% chance of a successful breakthrough when dribbling and engaging the top defender.
      Basically you want to breakthrough high energy Vs low attack
      You want to pass high pass Vs low block.
      If you get the ball lure them towards your net and buy time for Tidus to get close to the net. Then pass it to him before any defender gets close enough to engage. Then charge and try to break through and take shot. With 11shot and 8 save you will score if close enough and if not you probably have 50% chance of score.

    I learned that in the first half you can't really score at all. Just keep passing around the ball especially to Tidus, so you guys can level up. Try not to let them score more than 2 goals or 1 goal preferably. I was down 0-2, but came back and won 3-2 in overtime thanks to Tidus' Jecht shot and Wakka's venom shot.

    Pro tips: the circle around you is also the vicinity of where they connect to you. To have a free pass or shot they have to be out of the ⭕️ circle around your triangle on the map. Use this to position and pass safely. If two or more enter your circle you will generally be stuck. Always keep it moving. Another thing not mentioned is don’t switch coverage types. Just keep it on manual A and normal coverage. This confused me initially the most and is not mentioned often. And finally make sure to exploit the enemy bottom two. They are much weaker. Esspecially the dark skin one Babu or whatever his name is can be brushed off if he’s alone. Jassu can pass well but the key is to get the ball to Jassu, break Babu, then go towards the final bottom guy and feint back to pull him closer and off tidus so he has a clean circle. Then break and pass to tidus or pass if you faked hard enough and try to have that be the main attack plan. The guys at the top of the field are the stars on their side while the bottom two are exploitable.

    - Despite Graav having one leg, zero eyes in his head and only index fingers on his hands, he manages to elude the three defenders.
    - Graav, faces the wrong way and his jaw has now fallen off, he launches a kick, hurling the ball towards the audience along with his gangrenous foot.
    - The audience shriek and panic as this rogue Blitzball thunders towards them at a merciless speed.
    - The ball for whatever reason, swerves backwards. Interweaving all off the Aurocs who fail to even attempt to intercept the ball.
    -and the ball is in the back of the opponents net!
    - What tremendous fun this is for the player at home!
    - Everyone will love this fucking sport and attempting it over and over again to the point of total frustration.

Pass the ball to whoever is closer to the center and rush for the goal as the opposite team tries to catch up. Got through the entire season doing this. Wonder if the same tactic works in the remaster.

    I followed some steps in the video, but my game turned out differently. In the first half i actually didn’t score at all. Second half I score early with first couple steps, but broke through the 2nd defender (I wasn’t as close as possible when I scored the Jecht shot) 1-0. they scored 1-1, then I ended up scoring again with Tidus (normal shot) mid 2nd half, and it showed him do a cool celebration for like 10 seconds. The Goers then score in the just before the game went into overtime at 2-2. Overtime starts and I end up scoring the game winner with Wakka after repeating the first couple of steps, and then actually breaking through 2 defenders and scoring to win 3-2!!!!!

Plus i had a clear shot with tidus and two blockers appear even though there were non even remotely near me. I had two blockers and only one blocker took 0 from the shoot, so it went in...had the other block done what it was coded to do, it would have failed.

  • @majora320
    @majora320 4 года назад +1

    I have a totally different method that makes it several times easier to win. It does rely on rng slightly, but not for leveling. Tidus and Datto are your best shooters in this game so you have to rely on them. Basically you get the ball to either of them and rush to the goal by staying at the edge of their side of the pool. Shake off the weaker tacklers first, and then as you get closer to the goal tank one of the stronger tacklers. If you make it through the second block get a little closer to the goal and then shoot. The closer you are, the better your chance of scoring

It got too easy to win every game with 10+ goals, so I would switch out good players for bad ones just to keep it challenging. Most underrated minigame ever, and it could have been even better with some adjustments to the programming.

    When on offense, pass to the bottom right player (when looking at the radar) Swim along the bottom towards the enemy goal. You will encounter their front player just over halfway. Either break to them or pass past them to Tidus who should be about 3/4 to the enemy goal already. With Tidus, move as far as you can toward the goal, while avoiding having 3 enemies in the encounter. 2 or less is perfectly fine with Jecht shot. In this match, Jecht shot should score every time with 2 or less defenders. For stats, If you have 10 pass on your opponent has 5 block, their actual block can't be any higher than 1.5 times their block stat (they would be able to block as high as 7, or as low as 2). Same with any stat. The goalie having 8 catch, can stop as high as a 12 sht if it's extremely lucky. Anything higher than a 12 will score every time.

      BlackSilhouette hug the walls of the pool that way you only get a max of two people attacking you at once. Going down the center is suicide unless you have someone with not only high endurance to take tackles but with tackle slip to boot to dodge them. Two luring away people to then pass to tidus and get him past the offense means he gets a straight ride to the enemies defense and if you know how to dodge the players you should be able to get right next to the goal before jecht shot which will take out both members of the defense. I have literally never had trouble with this usually only taking at max one retry because defense didn’t stop them from scoring.

    I adopted a fully offensive strategy focused on passing back and forth while no enemies are nearby until the ball gets to Tidus. Then I rush the enemy goal, break through a person and shoot.
    I scored once with normal shot in the first half, and another time with jecht shot in the second half. Finally I used Wakka and kept firing venom shot until I scored a third for a final score of 3-1~
