Blitz: The League - Strategy Guide (Page 02)

Below are the cheat codes, hints and help for Blitz: The League - Strategy Guide (Page 02).

Kansas City Crossfire:

Team Captain: DT Tyrell Price

Strategy: For some reason, I completely murder this team whenever I play them,
though every now and then, Price puts a hit on my QB.  Just be careful in the
backfield and play your basic strategy.

Cincinnati Crusaders:

Team Captain: RB Kwazi Mbutabe

Strategy: Same as the Aces, but a bit easier.  Once you hurt Mbutabe, their
offense is pretty much useless.

San Diego Cyclones:

Team Captain: CB Ezekial Freeman

Strategy: Without a doubt, teams with strong DBs give me the most trouble, 
mostly because they do the most to take away big pass opportunities and turn
them into turnovers.  Freeman is no exception, and once he rips you off, he'll
infuriate you further by spitting out a bible verse.  I'm serious; this guy
gives me more trouble than Quentin Sands.  That said, he CAN be beaten, 
especially by a master of clash catching, and to a lesser extent, screen 
passing.  Offensively, they're tough but nothing to write home about.

Detriot Devils:

Team Captain: WR Cookie Wallace

Strategy: Aim your kickoffs to the left to avoid big returns by Wallace (he
lines up on the right).  This team can be tough because they favor the pass,
which, as mentioned earlier, is the computer's best weapon.  Plus, Wallace can
come up with some total BS catches.  Like all teams with a WR captain, they'll
throw to that captain about 50% of the time.

Denver Grizzlies:

Team Captain: None

Strategy: You won't play this team in campaign mode.  I have no clue why not.

Orlando Hammerheads:  

Team Captain: None

Strategy: Same as above.  Visit the official game website: 
www.blitzleague.com, and it really knocks this team and the above Denver
Grizzlies.  Knowing this, I'm gonna spend some time playing them on quick
play to discover what's up.

Chicago Marauders:

Team Captain: QB Shane Spain

Strategy: All hail Spain!  Ha, hardly.  Just be careful because they throw
a lot.  Beat the daylights out of Spain and earn a ton of clash icons.  Big
money here.

New York Nightmare:

Team Captain: LB Quentin Sands (LT)

Strategy: The best team in the game, and the computer plays them like it.
I can't offer you any more advice than to play your absolute best game.  The
plus side is that, in campaign mode, the game will always place you as the
underdog -- so winning bets is fairly easy.  

Arizona Outlaws:

Team Captain: WR Tito Maas

Strategy: Since they're a D-III team, they should be a pushover.  Watch out
though -- they go to Maas A LOT, and he can occasionally pull out a Jesu-like
catch and run thereafter.

Minnesota Reapers:

Team Captain: RB Tony Forbes

Strategy: Of all the teams with RB captains, this one is the toughest, and 
will play you VERY tough in the D-II championship game.  Once again, defend 
conservatively against the run, but be careful: Forbes is a decent receiver,
too.

Washington Redhawks

Team Captain: DE Jacob Williams

Strategy: Williams isn't overbearingly tough, but their QB Mexico can case
problems.  Mike Mexico, No. 7, is so much of a rip-off of Mike Vick that I'm
surpised he never filed suit.  Don't believe me?  Do a google search on "Ron
Mexico."  Even though Mexico plays like Vick as well, the Redhawks are still
just a D-III team and should therefore be easy to beat.  Dirty hit Mexico 
whenever possible to slow him down.

New England Regulars:

Team Captain: CB Vonnie Treonday

Strategy: Same as the Cyclones, but even though New England is a D-I team, 
they don't get to me as badly as San Diego and that Amish guy Freeman does.
Still, a very tough team.  In my opinion, the second best team in the game.

Seattle Reign:

Team Captain: DL Chad Longstreet

Strategy: Longstreet can be frustrating, but all-in-all, this team is the
easiest victory in D-I.

IX. Random Post-FAQ Rambling (blitzvix)

This is the section that can be found in any FAQ in which the author tells you
about a whole bunch of garbage that you totally don't care about.  As my FAQ 
is no different, I encourage the stalkers or the extremely bored to read on.

This is my first FAQ ever.  I started it at work because all the typing made
me look so busy that noone gave me any work to do.  Ironically, I think this 
game, though fun, is rather poorly made.  Further, I don't consider myself a 
very good gamer either -- I'm just nasty at whacking the computer at this 
particular game -- oh, and Hot Shots Golf 3.  I may very well be the world's
best Hot Shots Golf 3 player, having shot 21 under on several of the courses.
LOL -- Hot Shots isn't exactly a pinnacle of modern gaming either.

I am in the process of getting an email address for this FAQ so I can read
people's complaints, or if I'm lucky, positive feedback and suggestions.  If
and when that does happen, I'll make a new version and put it in there.

X. Version history (blitzx)

1.0: Garbage.  It was meant as an email to someone else who was going to do an
FAQ.  When that email turned 9 pages long, I decided to do my own.

1.1: I finally learned how to meet contribution requirements.

1.2: Touched up FAQ formally and grammatically, added more explicit directions
and tips for campaign mode.

1.3: Touch ups; Added controls and teams in order to officially make this an 
"FAQ"
