I'm wanting to do a perfect save for Final Fantasy VIII, and i'm pretty sure some cards can be missed throughout the game, question is, which ones? I'm going to use the official guide, but it doesn't really go in-depth with the cards...
I think I'm beginning to understand. An answer from the Planet, the Promised Land...I think I can meet her...there.
Well, seeing as you have the guide, I'l just spoiler tag it for other peoples benefits <_<
Spoiler:
As far as Im aware, the only cards you only have one chance of getting are Lagunas card on board the Space Station from Ellone, you won't be able to get him again
and Cerberus can only be got in the battle of the gardens as he drops his card, so if you miss that, its gone along with the GF as well
I'm pretty sure that's it
I think the CC Group will be on board the Ragnorak on disk 4 as long as you have complete said sidequest previously, and I THINK the Queen of Cards is at the escape pod on Disk 4 as well. You will however have needed to do the Chocobo sidequest to be able to access the Ragnorak. I think she has all the rare cards you may have missed, but I wouldnt quote me on that....
The official guide doesn't go into very much detail about the Triple Triad cards? That seems kind of messed up to me. Well, I looked up some info, and here's a few that stuck out to me:
SPOILER!!:
The PuPu card disappears if the alien dies, so that's a missable one.
You must win the Angelo card from Watts on disk one or you can try again on disk three when you see him on the White SeeD ship. I don't think any other person has it.
The Shiva card is acquired from Zone in disk three on the White SeeD ship. You have to have the magazine "Girl Next Door" in order to recieve it.
The Laguna card can be/is only acquired by winning it from Ellone when you're on the Lunar Base, but Lily already mentioned that.
I think that's all the ones that can be missed if you don't play the card game during that particular part of the story. Well, those are the ones that stuck out to me anyway... Good luck!
I never challenged the Queen of Cards, so I don't know what exactly she has or can have in her deck.
As long as you do the card quest throughout the game, you are eligible to challenge the Queen of cards on disc 4. She has all the level 9 and 10 cards that you either Card modded or missed. That means her deck is stacked though, so be careful and save often when playing her.

Meier: Hey Pete, I said I started to, it just didn't end the with the same number of women. Then again this one is kind of on the outs with me if she doesn't straighten up and fly right so that means I will be back in it for the thrill of the kill. Got some in the reserves. Even got a rePETEr (<---- like that ay? AYYYYY?) on the back burner.
Block: I do like the rePETEr except it kinda makes it sound like you're going to pork Pete. No homo.

I know you said she has all the rare cards, but does she also have Ifrit? Because my friend was recently saying he played against her tons and tons of times, and she didn't have Ifrit what so ever, so he just gave up...
Hmmm..
I think I'm beginning to understand. An answer from the Planet, the Promised Land...I think I can meet her...there.
If what Rocky said is true about she has all the level 9 and 10 cards, then she wouldn't have Ifrit because he's a level 8 card. If you lost him to General Caraway to get the Rinoa card, then you can get Ifrit back by playing and winning it from Martine when you find him in Fisherman's Horizon.
I was wondering the same thing about the Siren card, I read that in order to get it from this guy I had to save the dog in the first quest, how was I suppose to know this?
It is possible to get every single card in the game it takes a bit of work and knowing where to obtain them but it can be done certain sidequests yield certain cards The King of Cards sidequest and The Queen of Cards sidequest gives you some of the strongest cards but the Queen of cards sidequest can be very long, difficult and tedious.
