Well, there are many different GF cards in the game. You say you have Quezacotl, Ifrit, Shiva, Diablos, Eden and Pandemona... correct?

Well some of the GF cards are difficult to get. Some of them aren't too hard to get so let's see what ones you haven't got.

Siren: You have to win two card games against the pub owner in Dollet. He will play it to you then and you can try to win it off of him.

I'm thinking you have Sacred and Minotaur since you get their cards when you defeat them.

Gilgamesh: You can get his card from the CC Group King.

Carbuncle: Participate in the Balamb Garden Club Card Quest. Win a card game against Heart to receive the card.

Leviathan: Win a card game against Joker in the training area in discs one, two and three, or on the Ragnarok in disc four.

Alexander: You can get that from Piet on the Lunar Side Base.

Phoenix: Win a card game against the Aide in the Presidental Palace in Esthar during the Card Queen Quest.

Doomtrain: Win from the pub owner in Dollet during the Card Queen Quest.

There are other as well, most of the information I got from this site. It has a list of all the cards you can get in the game. I hope it helps you out.

Good luck!

Yes, some of the cards are quite difficult to obtain. I have been having a lot of trouble trying to get Seifer's card off of Cid. The rules are insane and I can't seem to ever win against him! If anybody has any hints for winning against him, please post them in here. I would really like to get that card for my collection!

Well, I started playing Final Fantasy VIII again last night and I just received the Lamp from Cid. I never try to defeat Diabolos until later on in the game because I'm rather slack! Does anybody have any idea on how to defeat him straight away? I can't do it!

I have heard of drawing Demi from him and casting back on him again. I'm trying to draw Demi from him but it keeps failing! :( Is there something I have to do before I can draw magic off of him or what?

It's probably something simple but I have no idea at the moment! :(

lol. i always defeat him straight away, al i do is stock up on as much magics of the same kind as possible straight away, then junction it to give yourself a major power boost, then when u start to fight him, blind him, it stops him from using his direct attack, then draw demi from, him, it takes a couple of trys but then cats it, it takes of loads at first, but then after a while stop using it, because it does less and less dammage each time, then just slice and dice, when he uses demi on u keep your health low and get squalls rokojenkin and slice him up, he cant kill u cos he's blind and his demi only takes of either half or a quater of your health so he cant kill u, so if he does get u then just bring them back with phenixdown. gd luck l8r!
