Template:Sideicon The following is a list of blitzball techniques from Final Fantasy X.
General information
- The Cost of a technique is the HP consumed when it is used. If a value is asterisked, it applies when equipping the technique, and the player equipping it begins the match with correspondingly reduced HP.
- Passes inflicting Poison, Wither and Sleep only do so if the ball is touched by the victim but not caught. Tackles need only make contact to inflict ailments.
- Shots inflicting Poison, Wither and Sleep only do so if they fail to score a goal. The chance of infliction is determined by the technique, and the goalie will never catch a shot that inflicts a status; he will instead be hit by the ball, inflicted, and the result the same as if he had "got a hand on it".
- Drain Tackles only drain HP if the user has at least as much HP as the tackle can drain.
Rare techniques
There are two rare techniques: Anti-Drain and Hi-Risk. Theoretically Tidus, Wakka and Durren can have these blitzball techniques. However, Anti-Drain is "impossible" to get (except with Durren), while Hi-Risk is very difficult.
The game doesn't equip Anti-Drain on an opposition player so it can be Tech Copied. Additionally, if one attempts to force a Tech Copy opportunity by hiring a player with the Anti-Drain ability and then releasing that player to be hired by another team, when that player appears as an opponent with Anti-Drain equipped, no Tech Copy is possible. In the case of Durren, his tech Anti-Drain may be missable, so the only way to learn it is to release him and let the A.I teach him automatically.
Hi-Risk appears rarely as prize for 2nd place in the Blitzball League, and it appears most often if certain blitzball players are on the team. Use the [Reset] option of the Blitzball menu, it may be useful to get the first of these for Wakka. In the case of Tidus, he is required have learned his two first key techniques (Venom Tackle and Drain Tackle 2 in strict order) for recently be able to get it.
