Combo shells are a | Combo shells are a type of theory shell read when some ''combination'' of arguments are abusive. That is, Argument <math>A</math> might not be abusive alone, and Argument <math>B</math> might not be abusive alone, but combining Arguments <math>A</math> and <math>B</math> produces some abuse story. | ||
For example, if the affirmative makes a claim that the judge should evaluate the theory debate after the 1ar (they decide who wins the theory flow when the 1ar is over) and that aff gets theory in the 1ar that is drop the debater (the abusive debater should lose for being abusive), then that is bad because affs can make new theory shells in the 1ar and auto-win since the 2nr can’t respond to them due to the debate being evaluated after the 1ar. | For example, if the affirmative makes a claim that the judge should evaluate the theory debate after the 1ar (they decide who wins the theory flow when the 1ar is over) and that aff gets theory in the 1ar that is drop the debater (the abusive debater should lose for being abusive), then that is bad because affs can make new theory shells in the 1ar and auto-win since the 2nr can’t respond to them due to the debate being evaluated after the 1ar. | ||
