What is live today
SuperDebate has shipped 12+ live events, built a 250+ person community, and hosted competitors from seven countries. Here is what exists now.
The record
No forecast belongs in this section. Every claim below points to something already operating, published, or completed.
Live competitive debate already runs in multiple cities. The format is locked, the rounds are recorded, and the room shows up.
SuperDebate hosted an international tournament with competitors from seven countries. Cross-border. Cross-format. Real.
Chicago is the home market: an active community of 250+. The first community-run event already shipped without the founder present.
Nine questions. Every town. All year. AI is the announced topic of 2026 and the framework for every debate, club, and content piece this year.
The Debate Guide is published. The chapter playbook is documented from real Chicago experience. New ambassadors get the full kit on Day 1.
superdebate.org runs end-to-end: events, ticketing, video rooms, judge ballots, brackets, recaps. Founder Arena is live. The product is not the bottleneck.
Where it goes next
The league is active in four cities. These eight markets are in active outreach, each with a local relationship or a concrete opening path.
