How policy debate works

Policy debate asks whether a plan should be adopted. Prep involves plans, advantages, disadvantages, counterplans, topicality, and kritiks.

DebateLab helps you draft and attack each component.

Researching DAs and counterplans

Use DebateLab to find potential disadvantages, test counterplan competition, and build blocks for common DA scenarios.

Kritik and theory prep

Kritiks challenge assumptions behind the opponent's framework. DebateLab can help you brainstorm kritik arguments and theory blocks.
