A victory theme, also known as a fanfare or flourish, is a short excerpt from a song that plays in Super Smash Flash 2 whenever a Group match is won. Like the Super Smash Bros. games, Super Smash Flash 2 includes a different victory theme for every series, inspired by the universe the character comes from. It is normally a stage clear or victory theme from a game the character previously appeared in, but there are some exceptions.

Trivia[]
- Despite being a staple feature in the official Super Smash Bros. series, victory themes are completely absent in the original Super Smash Flash.
- The FINAL FANTASY victory theme is also used in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as Cloud's victory theme. The only difference is that the theme only plays the first part of the flourish in SSF2, whereas during normal matches in the official games, the theme plays the first part of the flourish and then the rest of the theme continuously, replacing the results screen music.
- An abridged version of the victory theme with only the first part of the flourish plays after winning a tourney in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, mirroring the theme in SSF2.
- Meta Knight's and Mr. Game & Watch's victory themes are taken directly from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, making them the only veterans to have a victory theme that has not been altered in some shape or form at the moment.
- Similarly, Naruto's victory theme is taken directly from the anime of the same name, making him the only newcomer to have a victory theme that has not been altered in some shape or form at the moment. He also remains to be the only character to have the same victory theme in all versions released for the game after his first debut in v0.7 of the demo.
- Prior to v0.9b of the demo, it was planned for each character to have a distinct victory theme, rather than victory themes being intrinsic to different series. This idea was scrapped with the introduction of victory themes arranged by the game's developers, though certain characters have since released with their own exclusive victory themes.
