The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters.
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted.

'''Score Display''' is a unlockable feature introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It can be unlocked by scoring a combined total of 5,000 KO's in [[VS Mode]]. Once unlocked (and turned on), the player will see their KO score on-screen (amount of KO's by numbers), instead of waiting until the end of a match to view it. The option, however, doesn't work in certain matches such as [[Stock]].

The '''Score Display''' is an optional [[rule]] that is available from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' onward that shows a scoreboard of how well players are doing relative to each other.
==Overview==
In ''Melee'', Score display [[unlock]]ed during [[Versus Mode]] by scoring a total of 5,000 [[KO]]'s. This was changed to 200 KOs in ''Brawl'' and {{for3ds}}, and is unlocked from the start in {{forwiiu}} and ''Ultimate''. The Score Display appears in [[Time]] matches for all games following ''Melee'' (always appearing when viewing [[replay]]s), in Bonus matches in ''Melee'', and also appears in [[Stock]] and [[Stamina]] matches in ''Ultimate''. Oddly, in Bonus mode, it displays the same score as if it were Time mode, not the amount of [[Bonus points]] collected.
 
When Score Display is switched on, the net [[score]] of all combatants will be displayed on-screen next to their [[series symbol]]. If a player secures a KO, they gain a point. If a player loses a stock, they lose a point. A negative score is possible after losing enough stocks. Points are typically earned by defeating opponents, though defeating an [[Assist Trophy]] in ''Ultimate'' is considered a KO and rewards a point. The main purpose of Score Display is to easily check the progress of a match, as the player with the highest score by the end is the winner. This is especially useful for time matches with no stock limit, as it can be hard to keep track of how many stocks have been taken and by who.
