What it means
A dub is a win, a victory, a successful result: that's a dub, we took the dub. The upbeat opposite of taking the L, born from the spoken letter W for win.
Usage examples

Where it comes from
It comes from saying the letter W out loud, which sounds like dub in fast casual speech. Since W already meant win, people started using dub as a noun for a victory or anything that went right. It spread hard through sports, gaming, and online talk.
