    The material has been opened up a lot in the past year alone. Counterplans are run, DA’s are expected, and kritiks are run every tourney.

    His 2AR sounds much better than his 1AC. I think he is clearer and using more hand motions than he was to begin with. Still, he is having a hard time looking away from his paper.
