I was actually not very good at debate but very good at reading fast, from rapping along to songs on the radio. I only did one year of debate but won several rounds by simply "spreading" so many arguments that the other team could not keep up. In one tournament, I read 7 "disads" in one speech (normal would be 2) and came very close to losing consciousness near the end, stopping 30 seconds early. In the next session, for my own health, I simply read at a conversational pace, and while we lost that round, the judge said he was sick of people reading fast and awarded me a perfect score on an individual basis.
I was overall terrible at debate but that was a bit of fun, even if it wasn't anything that should be called "debate."
