Never bothered with Queen of Cards quest, as the walkthrough of that is… Sizable, to say the least. Also, there’s only one relatively decent reward out of it (Doomtrain).
As for CC: they are a source of all rare cards besides the ones Queen has. Thus, if you want to have Vit/Str/HP Ups - they’re your best bet (also, getting enough of those makes Omega Weapon fight a breeze, you can reliably kill it without ever reaching Megido Flame and foregoing Holy War usage).
But yeah… Triple Triad is fun, especially since it translates to sth that will impact your game.
EDIT: also, you can get 3x100 Flare on your entire party on the first disc, but it’s a major PITA to get (iirc, 300 Red Dragon cards, so good fuckin’ luck). So yeah… Triple Triad brekas the game if you have the patience for it 😄
EDIT 2: also also, Queen of Cards is available at the crash site on Disc 3 as well
In my current playthrough, I used just a few of the techniques I know to get 3×100 Flare for my party to junction to STR and 3×100 Thundaga to junction to Elem Atk (you can get two of them, and the Siren has the third IIRC–it’s been a while since the SeeD exam and the playthrough proceeds at a snail’s pace) before the SeeD exam in order to defeat the “Crab Mecha” on the first available opportunity. All that, while keeping my levels at a minimum (under lvl 10, ideally).
I have the patience for it, but it still gets incredibly tedious and dull.
