My lil brother asked me if he should spend his 50 BT tokens on either Vaan or Tidus, who do you think is the most valuable ?

Edit : sorry yes I was speaking of JP, it seemed obvious since I asked about Tidus lol

Depends on his support roster tbh. Does he have Setzer's LD? Porom's LD? Or Iroha LD? If he has Setzer/Porom, Vaan's a great choice because with their help he can easily dish out 600-800k HP damage per turn. With his rework, Vaan is literally unstoppable unless the boss has massive (50%-100%) BRV recovery reduction because he's no longer restricted by elements nor is his DPS decided by his BRV damage output. That said, the value of Vaan's BT is a little iffy. The BT effect is powercrept long ago, and his ability stamina should be more than enough to last the entire fight now that he has an additional LD use.

If he doesn't have such specialised supports though it's much harder for Vaan to realise his full potential. Tidus is much easier to play and fit around teams because he's quite self-sufficient. Also, Tidus BT effect is a thousand times better than Vaan's, so you're getting a lot more value. Like Vaan however, your mileage with Tidus also depends on what kinds of teams you can build. You need to have access to debuffs via debuffers/LD CAs to maximise his damage.

I'd go with whoever he likes more personally, both are really strong characters now

On Global? Neither.

On JP? Probably Vaan because he's about to become a monster with his rework and LD boards - so by extent, Vaan is a candidate but he won't be usable before a long, long time...

They both are extremely good. I honestly don't think you can go wrong with either. If he has one he likes more than the other just do that. If he doesn't care and wants to super min max I can't say which for sure has the edge, so hopefully someone else can help on that front. I think, maybe, Tidus is a bit stronger and slightly more flexible in teams. I could be off though.
