Hopefully, most of you have noticed that under your life gauge, you recieve victory icons after you win a match. You've probably also noticed that they vary. I was just curious as to exactly what they meant. Here are all the ones I've encountered so far:

A "V": Stands for Victory, probably. But why not get it all the time when you win?

An "L": I have no idea what this could be...

An "S": Sometimes I get this when I finish off my opponent with a Super. Does that have anything to do with this?

A really weird looking symbol: Confused. Let's just move on...

A Clock: Self-explanatory. You get that if you win a match by having more life at the end of the time limit...

A gold medal-looking thing: Where'd this come from? I'm at a loss here...

If a mod could reply to this, I'd really appreciate it. It's not important, but after getting the Gold Medal-Looking Thing, I had to ask. Thanks!

L = Lag
Rope = Helper
Gold Medal = Person Left or cheap

yeah ive seen a few weird ones!


Cheese wedge=Ya Fire Balled the entire match,or some thing cheesy like that.
Cherries=hmmm..Great Match i guess
Clock=Time ran out
Rope=Helper'd your opponent to death,or ya held your opponent in the corner and beat him senseless.(im still unsure about this one,you choose)
"V"=victory..t'was a fair match
"S"=ya ended the match in a super move
"L"=ya wouldnt have won the match if lagg wasnt in your favor.

It makes sense now! Thanks a bunch!

The Cheese means you killed the person while they were blocking.

The lasso did confuse me at first, seeing as you can't throw in the game.

It's a nifty little thing, isn't it? I also got a "P" once, since I got a perfect, but anyone can get a perfect in Practice mode, right? :D

But, I've never seen cherries before...
