Nearly all of bots entered in the tournament used building techniques that are now considered unacceptable (although some bots such as [[Event Horizon 2]] and [[Flaming Whizzer]] were good and used many current techniques such as good space management, [[DSA]], and snapper loading).

BBEANS 2 was the first DSL AI tournament.
BBEANS 2 was the first DSL AI tournament. This tournament was actually ran before the current release of the [[DSL]] mod, which is DSL 2.1, which would explain why most of the bots aren't very well made compared to today's standards.

Summary of tournament:
Summary of tournament:
The tournament's front runners emerged after two or three rounds were completed. As expected, Child's Play IV ([[ACAMS]]) led the pack in terms of Wins, KOs, and TKOs, closely followed by a surprise in LeVeL ([[InfiniteInertia]]). Also, Eco Jr. ([[Sorrow]]) and Shreddar ([[Somestrangeguy]]) rounded out the top four of the unbeaten machines.

Also, [[ECO Jr.]] ([[Sorrow]]) and [[Shreddar]] ([[Somestrangeguy]]) rounded out the top four of the unbeaten machines.
Crowd favorites such as Brown Wreckluse 2 ([[Clickbeetle]]), Pillar of Fire ([[Firebeetle]]), 3.14-ston ([[Luigica]]), Bio Quad ([[Sage]]), Box of Grime ([[Dexterhunter]]), and Rigadoon ([[Barbie]]) seemed as if they all fell into trouble. Brown Wreckluse 2 ([[Clickbeetle]]), Pillar of Fire ([[Firebeetle]]), Bio Quad ([[Sage]]), and Rigadoon ([[Barbie]]) all managed to make strong runs in the losers bracket though.

In the quarterfinals, the four undefeated bots squared off. Child's Play IV continued to move along, shutting out ECO Jr. with 2 KOs and 1 TKO. Shreddar upended Le\/eL, managing 2 KOs while Le\/eL earned a single TKO. The winner's bracket final, semifinal of the tournament would be Shreddar facing off against the undefeated Child's Play IV. Child's Play IV would survive an early scare, defeating Shreddar with a KO and a TKO, while Shreddar earned himself a KO.
Le\/eL defeated some strong bots in [[Volatile Partisan]] ([[Phlox]]) and ECO Jr. to advance to the Loser's Bracket final for a rematch against Shreddar. The results from last time were reversed, with Le\/eL advancing to the final from the loser's bracket with 2 KOs and a KO against him.
In the final, it went down to the last face-off between the two bots. However, Child's Play IV won the BBEANS3 title with a final TKO. The top two bots finished as follows:
Childs Play IV with 7 KOs, 9 TKOs, 7-0 record.
Le\/eL with 14 KOs, 5 TKOs, 7-2 record.
The rumble between Brown Wreckluse 2, Rigadoon, [[Interceptor]] ([[Harcsa]]), and Shreddar was won by Rigadoon due to a blow to the wheel of Brown Wreckluse 2.
Also notable to this tournament, the best robot built never to win an actual battle, [[Spinner from the west]] ([[Razer]])!
