Transform every round-ending duel and match finale into an epic tournament highlight!

🌟 What's New in v1.0.3
- 🎯 Accurate Point Win vs Round Win Detection:
- Fixed an issue where scoring 1 point ("half point" towards round win) mistakenly showed the "ROUND WON" banner with "CARD SELECTION NEXT".
- Regular point wins now cleanly trigger Tier 1 punchy impact without obstructing score orbs. Full "ROUND WON" banner only appears when a round is actually completed (winning twice / reaching target points).
- 👑 Full Match Victory Screen Celebration:
- Fixed missing effects on the match game-over screen: when "VICTORY!" appears, the mod now launches the full Grand Finale celebration with golden elastic banner slam, "★ MATCH CHAMPION ★", continuously raining confetti, and camera tracking the winning champion!
- 🤝 Universal Game Mode Support:
- Integrated real-time score detection across
GameModeManager.CurrentHandler,RWFGameMode(Rounds With Friends), and vanillaGM_ArmsRace.
- Integrated real-time score detection across
