A '''Star KO''' is a type of [[KO]]. When a character falls off the top of the screen (save for a few exceptions, see [[Star KO#Exceptions|below]]), they fly through the background, and eventually disappear as a star. Rarely, the character will fall in front of the stage. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', they simply fall past, but in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', they will bump against the screen. The second method takes far less time than the first, which occasionally makes a difference in situations where two people with one stock are killed off the top at once, or when trying to KO someone with little time left. | A '''Star KO''' is a type of [[KO]].

A Star KO is a type of KO. When a character falls off the top of the screen (save for a few exceptions, see below), they fly through the background, yell/scream/etc, and eventually disappear as a star. Rarely, the character will fall in front of the stage. In Super Smash Bros., they simply fall past, but in Super Smash Bros. Melee, they will bump against the screen. The second method takes far less time than the first, which occasionally makes a difference in situations where two people with one stock are killed off the top at once, or when trying to KO someone with little time left. This may not happen as hitting the frontof the screen is faster. In Brawl some charaters have their yelling shortend like Falco Marth Shiek Popo and others. Veterans have new ones or their are new plyers with them.
