I'm a coach and like more traditional LD. I'm not a fan of spreading in LD. This form of debate gives you a chance to shine as a good speaker. Being respectful is a must. There's no need to be derogatory to your opponent. Looking for strong framework and a full understanding of your case. Even if you didn't write your case you have to be able to express what it means in your own words. I love a good clash so bring it. Far fetched arguments with no backing just to mess up your opponent isn't impressive. I like strong substantiated arguments and your evidence better be legit.

Overall, I am a stock issues judge but I will flow anything. I do like theory arguments to an extent, but I can't and won't vote on anything without evidence. Speed is fine but I need to be able to understand your taglines. As far as impacts go, I really like seeing debaters connect the impacts to me and show me why I should care.
