Tidus is a cheerful young teenager, the star blitzball player
for the Zanarkand Abes. He has long resented his father, a
renowned blitzball player himself who disappeared during Tidus'
youth. Tidus' quick moves allow him to attack even the swiftest
foes with ease.
Battle Strategy
Bring Tidus into the party whenever
an enemy is too agile for other characters to hit. He
can eliminate swift, four legged creatures with ease.
As his strength and agility improve, he will become
able to eliminate aerial enemies as well.
Sphere Grid
As Tidus advances from his starting
point, he can learn many support spells such as Haste
and Slow. Tidus' main benefit to the party is his ability
to increase the frequency of the party's turns and reduce
those of the enemy through his abilities like Hastega,
Slowga, Delay Buster, and Quick Attack.
Overdrive:
Sword Play
Tidus executes devastating sword attacks
against one or all enemies through his Overdrives. After
choosing an Overdrive technique, watch the meter carefully
and press X when the cursor is in the middle of the
bar. The strength of Tidus' Overdrive attack depends
upon how much time remains on the timer. The more Tidus
uses his Overdrive, the more techniques he will learn.
