'''Knockout Stars''' are "medallions" for [[KO]]ing opponents in the [[Versus Mode]] or [[online play]] of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', displayed at the bottom of each [[player]]'s [[character selection screen]] panel. The amount of KO Stars received is dependent on the amount of times a KO is dealt. For example, if a player knocks out two opponents, or if they KO the same opponent twice, they will receive two KO Stars. ''Melee'' allows players to have a maximum of only 255 KO Stars at a time. Any KOs achieved after players have attained have 255 KOs will not reward them with a KO Star. In ''Brawl'' onwards, this limit is extended to 999 KO Stars.

'''KO Stars''' (also called '''Knockout Stars''') are "awards" for KOing opponents in the VS. Mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', present at the bottom of one's character selection panel. The amount of KO Stars received is dependent on the amount of opponents defeated. For example, if players [[KO]] two opponents, they receive two KO Stars each. ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' allows players to only have 255 KO Stars at a time. Any KOs achieved after they have 255 will not reward them a KO Star. In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', this is extended to 999 KO stars. KO Stars are "removed" once the players exits VS. Mode or changes their [[name]]. [[CPU]] players do not earn KO Stars.
The design of KO Stars have changed in each new iteration of the game. In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' they are yellow 5-pointed stars (''Melee''{{'}}s has a more pronounced shadow than ''Brawl''{{'}}s) that increase in number up until 5, any more and it will be a single star with a tallied number to its right. ''for Nintendo 3DS'' uses a single white star along with the numerical value, regardless of how many KOs. ''for Wii U'' completely omitted a numerical value and added designs with colors and accents that were tallied into groups. ''Ultimate'' shows a medallion with a star in it, always showing the number of KOs like in ''for Nintendo 3DS''.
 
KO Stars are reset to zero once the players exit the mode or (prior to ''Ultimate'') change their [[name]]. [[CPU]] players do not earn KO Stars.
