help

[Casurin]

What do you want us to do? Tell your summon to not use it at the start of the fight?
there are many guides detailing how Yojimbo, his mood and attacks work.

[Talana 💃]

First of all, you should give Yojimbo to Yuna , and get the compability up to 255.
Use him often, and never let him die.
Except from that, I used a suggestion from someone called "Teh Tang" on GameFaqs , and it worked wonders for me ! Quote ;

"Ever since I got Yojimbo I was poor, because I made the stupid decision to cash in all my money and then later realise I needed to pay him to get him to work.

So all I did was pay him 10gil all the time, max would be 100gil, consistently paying him under a hundred gil, and after around 20 battles? He only used his dog once, the dagger attack around 4 times, zanmato around 7 times and the rest would be the sword attack.

He used zanmato whenever I paid him more than my usual amount of under 100gil

So to conclude, you dont need to pay him all of your money, you just need to use him more and pay him consistently over 1000 gil? 1001 gil works as well "

If you're just looking to kill the superbosses, skip the annoying ones - luckily both Lulu and Kimahri are arguably the worst characters, and they also have the most annoying CWs to get ;)

Yuna, Rikku, and Auron are all basically free.
Tidus needs some effort.
Wakka just needs time.

Thanks for heads up blitzball is long as wakka is the best for raw damage 12 hits on the attack reels

Not done any blitzing at all in main game

[solidap]

Blitz ball isn't bad (I even enjoyed it the first few times). Don't let that first match you play for the story dissuade you. That match is intentionally hard and maybe even impossible if you didn't learn Jetch Shot on the boat ride. When you start doing real matches at a save sphere they won't be nearly as hard

[HIGHGRADESMOKER87]

once i recruited brother and learnt jecht shot it was easy wins

[The Grumbleskull]

Waiting to add brother and ropp to your team before starting absolutely breaks any challenge blitzball had to offer.

[HIGHGRADESMOKER87]

brothers throw is too good sets tidus up 4 the jecht shot like a dream

Brother's speed and Ropp's defensive capabilities really turn the tides early on. I tend to use Jecht shot last minute for a guaranteed goal though so I can train other members.
You can also hire Jumal in Luca to be a really solid goalkeeper until the mid level gameplay. He can super goalie + grip gloves really early on.

[Hinnyuu]

Brother is a one-man army, really. He's borderline cheating ;) Brother + Tidus can devastate the world of Blitzball entirely by themselves it almost doesn't matter who else you recruit. Then again, Ropp is also insane, and available almost straight out of Luca, so why not!

[HIGHGRADESMOKER87]

i wish blitz could of been more player controlled it is kind of on rails

i dont see any point in blitzing until late game they could of made blitzball more integral to the story like every temple you had to win a blitzball match aswell as complete the cloister

I think it'd have been more fun to have considerably more player options to recruit. But for the most part I think the only issue with it is that the slots are tied to battle count, which in theory balances his growth through the game but in practice just restricts him. If they'd gotten any more in depth with it they could have ended up with another triple triad and a lot of people resented some of the best rewards being hidden behind a minigame.
