Trophy Power suggests the same thing that To The Victor The Powers: a competition where powers is the prize, and it's not like that.

One potential problem with "loser" is that it has other definitions than "the one who doesn't win" and might cause some confusion as such.

[up][up] I can't see that problem when combined with "victor".

Probably last bump for votes, if it doesn't get more we'll do the swap.

It's been renamed and now it's waiting for it to be custom titled, when it's done I'll holler to close the thread.

Not quite done: missing the note in Renamed Tropes and the thread. You also need to set the page type for Victor Gains Loser's Powers.

(Formatting problems on Victor Gains Loser's Powers — be real nice if they got cleaned up as part of the move. Example Indentation, etc.)

[up] The trope was created no more than a month or two ago, I didn't think a note for it being renamed was needed, but ok.

About Example Indentation I can't make the markup (\\) work for reasons I don't know, so if someone can help with that we can be done about this.

Just because my mother was a checklist doesn't mean I'm obsessive!

Seriously though it's useful info, regardless of how long it's been around. Thanks for that. Locking.

Crown Description:

Your Defeat Means I Obtain Your Powers was splitted from Power Copying (formerly Mega Manning) to hold the examples where the power copying/getting happened upon defeating the enemy. When the trope was made the name only cared about it being clear, and many tropers suggested it could have a better one.
