Banter Wars Series 2.5 was the second series of Banter Wars special events. It was announced on the 16th October 2016 by A Heap Of Games on the Banter Wars wiki. There was a suggestion poll put up on the Banter Wars Wiki where users voted for what they wanted in. Days later A Heap of Games presented the final competitions which this message.
- "Hi everyone! It's great to see so many suggestions here for Banter Wars 2.5. Before I give the list of competitions that will be present in 2.5, I just want to say thanks again for your continued support of the series as we approach the Series 2 Grand Final!
So, I went through all your suggestions and picked out the ones that I think would work best. There were ideas that were not included in the end simply due to impracticality for recording or gettin accurate results, which is a real shame We see some competitions returning, and some new ones to get our teeth into!
And for some of these competitions, I would like for you to give your suggestions as to which robots compete! I'll make that clear in the list." - — MESSAGE FROM AHOG
Wiki Users were also allowed to choose what robots would fight in what competition.
- "For the following competitions, I would like you to give suggestions for which robots to use from Series' 1, 1.5 & 2: All-stars, Team trash, weapons match, grudge, Wiki wars, Foreigners, king of the Hill & Sumo. Perhaps a new page can be created for suggestions.
(Foreigners will run differently than it did in 1.5. Now, it will be a 1v1 knockout contest with robots from a number of countries drawn randomly.)
So get cracking! As soon as I have a good number of suggestions, filming can commence! Any other issues, feel free to contact me.
"
