The amount of KO Stars you have depend on the number of opponents you have defeated, for example, if you knockout two opponents, you recieve two KO Stars. The game allows you to only have 255 KO Stars at a time, any KO's achieved after this will not give you a KO Star. KO Stars cannot be kept permanently, and are mainly given to you to show how many opponents you have defeated. If you exit VS. Mode, all characters will lose any they have earned. If you change your screenname in VS. Mode, and have any of them, you will lose any KO Stars you have earned. Computer controlled players do not earn KO Stars.
