About

Win / Epic Win/ For The Win is the complete opposite of Fail and Epic Fail. It is very commonly quoted in images and videos that are completely great in every single way, or a useful waste of time or money. Sometimes when something fails in such a funny way it can be considered a Win.

Origin

The phrase "For the Win" was been in usage since prior 2005. However, "Epic Win" has only begun trending by mid-2007.
