Match winner

The Match Winners are a series of monsters with a special effect that allows them to win the entire Match if they decrease the opponent's Life Points to 0 with a direct attack. A common effect they got is that they cannot be Special Summoned and can only be Tribute Summoned by tributing three monsters of the same type. With the exception of Victory Dragon (who is Forbidden in Advanced Format), all of them are Illegal and very rare since they were given as Prizes in every year's World Championship. Victory Dragon, in the TCG, was given as a Promo of Shonen Jump Magazine.
