A '''Screen KO''' ({{ja|手前やられ|Temae yarare}}, ''Forefront defeat'') is a special type of [[KO]] which has a chance of occurring when characters are launched past the upper [[blast line]]. In contrast to a [[Star KO]], the character instead falls into the foreground and appears to [[wikipedia:Fourth wall|crash into the screen]], before they are KO'd at the bottom, which is how these KO's got their name. | A '''Screen KO''' ({{ja|手前やられ|Temae yarare}}, ''Forefront defeat'') is a special type of [[KO]] which has a chance of occurring when characters are launched past the upper [[blast line]].

Whether a character is Star KO'd, Screen KO'd, or merely blast KO'd is mostly random. In the first three games, Screen KOs are considerably rarer than Star KOs; as a result, Screen KOs rarely involve two or more characters at once. From ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' onward, the frequency of Screen KOs has been increased, especially in the 3DS version of Smash 4, to be about as common as Star KOs. | Whether a character is Star KO'd, Screen KO'd, or merely blast KO'd is mostly random.
