Lady Luck (Final Fantasy X-2)

The Lady Luck is a dressphere in Final Fantasy X-2. It is obtained in Luca either in Chapters 3 or 5 by defeating Shinra at Sphere Break. It is easier to beat Shinra in Chapter 3 due to an increased difficulty for his match in Chapter 5.
Lady Luck uses dice and slots to attack the opponent, as well as attempting to boost the amount of gil, experience, or items earned from battles. Some of Lady Luck's abilities have been previously used in Thief's skillsets in earlier Final Fantasy games.
The Lady Luck dressphere excels in high Luck, aiding the player to achieve many critical hits. The dressphere is only above average regarding other stats, but is somewhat high in Strength. Lady Luck relies on player skill and luck, especially when using the Reels, which are the primary source of the dressphere's offense and defense. If the Reels fail at aligning, the player suffers from a Dud, which takes off 75% of the current HP regardless of the defense and a party member can be KO'd by a chain attack, though this can be avoided if the player is invincible or has NulPhysical.
== Profile ==
The Lady Luck dressphere dons tight, revealing, colored dresses with playing card symbols on the each of the girls' chests. 
Yuna's dress is magenta and fades into purple. She has a purple gloves and boots. She wears a gold coin belt and necklace. She has a black, red, and gold headdress and has a black spade on her chest.
Rikku's dress is yellow with black trim and a blue headband. She wears yellow gloves and armbands on her upper arm. She wears black thigh-high fishnet stockings and yellow boots. She has a black club on her chest.
Paine's dress is indigo and black. She has indigo gloves that fade into black and thigh high black boots. She wears a decorative hairpin with blue and teal feathers on the right side. She has a red diamond on her chest.
Yuna's and Paine's cards correspond to their respective card suits (Spades and Diamonds), however, Rikku's cards are adorned with spades. In battle Yuna and Rikku simply hold on to their cards, but Paine can make her cards orbit around her (during ATB-gauge filling) and, in her victory pose, the cards fly around her body up to her open palm.
Yuna's victory pose is to hold her cards at each side, before taking a bow. Rikku spins, leans back, and slowly raises one arm above her. Paine's cards orbit her body, and then her arm, where she catches them.
Rolling doubles on Two Dice or the same number four times on Four Dice, awards the Gambler's Dream trophy/achievement in Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster. The icon is three Sevens over the Lady Luck symbol. Also, using Bribe 30 times awards the Excellent Negotiator trophy, which has falling coins for its icon.
== Abilities ==
Mastering Lady Luck requires 1,050 Ability Points.
The Reels can easily be exploited to get any combo the player wants, in particular the CONGRATS! alignment, by simply pausing the game repeatedly. The player can wait for whatever symbol they wish to show up, and press as it is a slot away from the desired position. The Reels start rotating in a random order. Therefore, it is impossible to align them in a specific order or sequence all the time unless the player repeatedly pauses the game. Players must be careful, as they need to avoid getting a dud while equipped with a Cat Nip accessory, as it may KO all party members, resulting in a Game Over. 
The Lady Luck dressphere is one of only two ways of accessing Ultima. The other is through the equipping of the Megiddo Garment Grid and passing through all of its gates.

==Behind the scenes==
It is implied that Leblanc's outfit is a Lady Luck dressphere, as the mark on her chest is a Heart, one of the four suits of a deck of cards like the Spade, Club, and Diamond on the chests of Yuna, Rikku, and Paine when they change into their dresspheres. Her fanblade is also comparable to the fan of cards used as the dressphere's weapon. She doesn't use the Lady Luck's abilities, however.
Some of the symbols seen in the Reels align to some dresspheres:
::
Symbol 	Dressphere
Sword 	Warrior
Helmet 	Samurai
Paw 	Berserker
Skull 	Dark Knight
Hat 	Black Mage
Staff 	White Mage
Flower 	Floral Fallal
Gray Orb 	Machina Maw
Two Swords	Full Throttle
The Lady Luck is also the name of a card-themed associated with , that appears in the Kingdom Hearts series. The Keyblade's Japanese name, "Last Resort", also appears in Final Fantasy X-2 as a Garment Grid.
A line sometimes said by Yuna at the end of battle, "Game over, man! Game over.", is a reference to an iconic line by Bill Paxton's character in Aliens.

== Etymology ==
It may also be a nod toward Frank Sinatra's song, "Luck Be A Lady", which talks of the singer hoping luck stays with him as he gambles.
