I think 2 times 5 mins is way too long, they should have shortened it to 2x3 minutes.

Rlly once you're pretty far this gets boring so easy and I win all my matches 8-0 and growing, I'm pretty sure that 2x3 wouldnt be too short. What are your thoughts on the length and in general about blitzball. Cuz I rlly start to get bored after 20 matches but I rlly want Wakka's celestial weapon.
 
IMHO the Blitzball matches weren't long enough, I think that if you fell behind in a game you didn't have enough time to form a come back
 
I actually thought the matches weren't long enough; I wanted to see how many points I could get, you see. :P
Anyways, no, I think the time is fine enough, could be longer, but shorter?
Nah, I think that would ruin it.
 
I think that the match length is just fine the way it is. Although you could use the Goalie Glitch if you want the matches to be shorter.

Glitch: All you have to do is get a lead, then get the ball to any player and have that player swim behind your Goalie. With this method all the other teams players will just spin in circles while time runs out. Do be warned it dosen't always work but it does most of the time.
 
I think the time is fine. It's not too short and not too long, in my opinion. =/.

I don't want it any longer though. haha. It might bore me.
 
It would be good to have the choice to shorten the matches, cuz after you have a good team u can score countless goals in second, and its boring w8n about for the match to finish.
 
I guess that's true. I like winning though. haha. It makes me laugh when I keep getting in the goal. =p
 
i think it was just right
Hey! Quit spamming and put more thought into your posts...:mad:

I liked the length of time for halves they give you. It's enough time since it's a running clock to catch up if you happen to fall behind in a game. Also, you get chances to copy Tech's off the other players in the meantime.
 
I never used the "Tech Copy" feature. It's diffulcult for me to comprehend. haha. I just let them do what they want.
 
You can make it a little quicker by getting one goal then after you get the ball again swim to your own goal and just wait there till the time runs out
 
You guys should use some more tactics if you cant come back after getting a goal =/

A nice trick is to go all-out-defence and let them come, then suddnely switch to center attack, and one attacker will go forward through the center between 2 defenders, pass to him and you'll have a free shot on goal.

There are other tricks I use as well involving side attack and stuff but they're kinda complicated to explain. after 20 blitzballmatches I hardly win under 8-0. That's where the fun kinda stops =/
 
i thought it was way too long. but then again, i hate Blitzball with a blinding passion. so the shorter i have to play it the better :D

what would be awesome is if you could choose how long your matches are, then everyone could do what they wanted and be happy.
 
Yes but it would take about 6-7 mins real time as everytime you have a hoice (dribble/shoot/pass p.e.) the timer is stopped. So a blitzball game would take up around 15 mins of your time. Too much for me.
 
Well, sometimes I wish they were shorter. Because when you're winning 5-0, you just want the match to end because it starts to get boring. But overall, I think the length of the matches is fine. Though I wish I had more time with the Al-Bhed Psyches. Man, they are hard to beat. At least for me, because they have an excellent goalie.
 
It depends on where you are in terms of skill,and level. It's a fearsome clash to stay ahead when you're evenly matched with another team.

When you're really experienced, and you're scoring was more points, it's like ''Why isn't there a feature where your opponents can give up when they're being pwnt?''
