I've always been a fan of the Alexander card. I guess I'm a sucker for Alexander. Maybe it's because he's a castle and he takes down Bahamut (in FMV).
I always liked collecting these cards. It was great fun. Hunting down the good players throughout the world was awesome.
Did anybody else veer from the actual quest to pursue this?

I really tried to understand and play Tetra Master, but I didn't get it. It seemed too random in terms of what card defeated another. I did manage to win the Card Tournament in Treno...once.I was pretty excited when that happened, because honestly, I had no idea what I was doing.
I don't really go around playing the mini-game, but I do like collecting the cards that are scattered around the world.I suppose I just like to hoard stuff away like that.

I know that the first two letters determine what kinda attack the card has and what kinda defense it has when it battles other cards and that the next two numbers were how strong it was but that's where my knowledge of how each cards works ends.
That didn't stop me from travelling all over the place trying to find all the possible cards that I could though. My favorite people to battle are the people in Memoria that are hidden, they not only have some great cards but they are the only people that are a challenge towards the end of the game when my deck was getting ridiculously strong lol
Wanna Know More:
Tetra master is crap it requires very little skill and a whole lot of luck. Triple Triad from FF8 is much much better that does require skill and patience.
Actually, if anyone takes the time to research about the numbers in Tetra Master (try the FF Wiki), it may take more skill and patience than most people actually have for this game. It is also up to which cards you choose at the beginning (obviously you're not gonna choose a Goblin card over an Ifrit card).
I love the game. Even though the rewards are just cards, it gives you something to do when you want to do something after passing the game. Over-leveling characters in battle tends to make things boring.

I love this card game! I started playing 9 a few months ago on my purchased PSX copy (sadly no book) but my PS2 is broken and won't play PSX games until I have the eye-adjusted again.
But I got it for PSN and I absolutely love it! Before my PS2 system refused PSX games, I actually got pass Eiko and spent most of the hours playing Tetra Master (ask siblings!).
I love how its like 8's but not in the sense that's its bad or a horrible rip-off. Its actually really fun!
But I'd like to ask. Am I the only one who feels this one requires just a bit more "thinking" than 8's? No that I'm dissin' on 8's, because I adore that one as well. But sometimes, I feel as if Tetra Master requires a bit of luck as well as patience. In a way, I do like Triple Triad more, but that's most likely because it came first....

I like Tripe triad more and have mastered that and gotten all cards, Tetra Master on the hand i have not..
But i intend to later, it's just depends how good cards you have which gives you more luck i guess
The other one was much more cooler though.
Okay, here's some research I've done on this subject. Hope you can understand the game better after this.
1P59
Here's some basic info. The first digit is attack power, the second means what kind of attack is it (physical or magical), third means physical defense, and fourth is magical defense.
Now there are four types of attack. P, M, X, and A. P is for physical and M is for magical. Either one can be upgraded into X, which allows it to pick the weakest defense of the opponent's card during a card battle. And there's a small chance of an X card turning into an A card, which allows it to pick the smallest number in an opponent's card during a card battle.
For a card battle, let's use the stats of the card mentioned above versus a random card.
1P59 vs. AP40
As you can see, our first card wouldn't stand a chance against a card with high physical defense. But let's change the second digit.
1X59 vs. AP40
In this case, the first card will target the opponent's lowest defense. Since the opponent's card has a magic defense of 0, the first card, whose attack power is one, will target the opponent's magic defense.
I have yet to see an A card in action, since I've only read about it. This is mostly based on my experience with Tetra Master. I hope this helps.

Can anyone tell me the ranks of Tetra Master? I am currently a "Player", but I was wondering how much farther I have to go? And does each card have a different amount of points depending on the code of each card?
The ranks and points required for said rank is listed in the Spoiler tag. Information courtesy of the FF Wiki:Originally Posted by Michael Swayne

Thanks, it helps a lot. I see that I have a lot of work to do. I will be updating my progress to keep everyone informed.
Sorry to say it but Tetra Master is a complete bag of wank. Triple Triad in Final 8 Blitzball in Final X and Sphere break in FFX-2 now those are good games!!!
