get Wedge Ropp Biggs Jumal and rest as you please (kyou when you're @mihen temple)

And i recommend you to get atleast Attack reels for Wakka (Tournament price after 50 (?) matches (non-blitz, fights with mobs) if you still dont have it as price, reset teams and it should show up, and do it only if you havnt hired much more players yet, 'cauze it takes again much money or just simply finish one tournament it'll appear as grand prize for next tournament)

Get kyou at mushroom rock road temple thing
hes a beast.

Yeah I'm in the 40s now, and I've used Kyou the whole way. He's a good goalie early on, and can play anywhere later. I think that Wedge is a must for any team as well. He's the best goalie at the end of the game.

IMO you can play now with tidus it is useless to wait
