Asian Tournament Promos refers only to main Japanese tournaments held in 1999 and only the ones which had prize cards specifically released for their winners and participants. This was a Duel Monsters tournament in the first part (not OCG legal), while the second part was played with the Game Boy Color game, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters II: Dark duel Stories.

Duel Monsters I[]

This was the very first Duel Monsters tournament; it was held from February 1st to 21st 1999 in the Ginza district of Chuou, Tokyo. The prize cards that were given out are unique in the Yu-Gi-Oh! OCG, as they represent the only case of Ritual Monsters being printed as Normal Monsters. None of them have been reprinted in this form, and moreover, the promos were literally made of stainless steel. In fact, the front and rear images of the usual card were printed on a card-sized steel plate, making them forever mint. Only one copy exists of the 1st to 4th prizes, while "Kanan the Swordmistress" was distributed to attendees. 400 players attended the event.
