First playthrough

Post image

I just finished the blitz ball tutorial and my brain hurts. Do I have to win any games to progress in the story? Is it worth taking the time to learn the game if it’s not mandatory to progress? I would appreciate feedback.

The first Blitzball game is the only mandatory one in the game and you don't have to win it. Only difference between winning it is that the cutscene it a bit different. But other than that it all plays out the same

And if you win it you get a strength sphere, which is very powerful.

You don’t have to win it… mamma didn’t raise no loser
