One of my favorite parts of NFA-LD is coming up with new disadvantages to run in debate rounds. Just like the affirmative debater gets the advantage by knowing their case really well as the negative debater you should have the advantage on any new disadvantages that you run in rounds.
Of course the link is always the hardest part but once you get that (perhaps in a good cx question?) you’re golden. You then have two speeches to bring up and finish off the disadvantage debate.
Here are two good disadvantages and a few examples of case specific negative research. My coach used to always tell me that it’s OK to lose to a brand new affirmative case you have no evidence against – once. After that round if you lose to the case again it’s no good since you had time to go research and develop a negative strategy against the case. The solar files and fiber optics evidence David sent in is a great example of that type of work. It’s what will usually separate those who make it to out rounds and those who don’t – winning at least one negative round.

Good evidence.
Danny, did you get the files I sent you last week? Just checking since I haven’t seen them on the evidence page yet.
