Each time that I have made another save file on FFX, I've done something differently.
1st File:
Kimahri and Rikku were useless and underused. I had Kimahri follow Lulu's part of the grid, and he was never as good as her. Tidus never reached Quick Hit, Lulu never had Ultima, Auron was my hard hitter, Wakka was ok, but only used as backup. I basically won the end-game by spamming Holy with Yuna, and I could never break 9999, because I couldn't get Anima for the lack of destruction spheres. I managed to beat Belgemine all the way to Remiem and used the Standard Sphere Grid.
I was ambushed by Dark Valefor at pwned instantly.
2nd File:
I used the Expert Grid this time, and I lost to Belgemine at the Mi'hen Highroad, then beat her at the Moonflow. Can't remember much else.
3rd and current File:
Standard Sphere Grid again. This time I was adamant that this time Rikku and Kimahri weren't going to be useless, and now they're my damage dealers They both hit for more than Auron, as does Tidus, and this time I had Kimahri go through a combo of Tidus' and Auron's grid-space. I now have all of Kimahri's overdrives, minus Nova. I plan going after Yuna's, Auron's, Rikku's, Kimahri's and possibly Lulu's Celestial weapons (I've managed 71/200 dodges so far) so I can get revenge on Dark Valefor and get the last Jecht Sphere so I can get Auron's Tornado.
I'll possibly kill a few optional Arena bosses too, and complete the Omega Ruins.
What have you guys do differently on your playthroughs? There's a lot of space for customisation in this game.
