About Debate it Labs
Debate it Labs is a practice room for PF, LD and Policy debaters. Pick a speech (1st Rebuttal, 2nd Rebuttal, Summary or Final Focus) or a skill drill (Weighing, Frontlining or Theory), pick a level from Novice to TOC, and Labs gives you the material: a real case from the caselist wiki, the responses teams read against it, and frontlines.
Prep on a speech doc against the prep clock, then give the speech against its official time. The drill material goes to Flow it so you can flow it like a round, and your recording stays on your device so you can play it back.
Every drill earns speaks, which count toward weekly, monthly and all-time leaderboards, and a drill a day keeps your streak going. Modifiers such as Analytics only, Off the flow and Lay speed make a drill harder and worth more speaks. Labs is built on current high school PF, LD and Policy topics and is included with Debate it All.
