serious, substantive The debate coach values “gravitas” (seriousness) and argues that “quips” (witty remarks) and “gibes” (taunts) don’t belong in a certain kind of argument. Serious and substantive is the only set that works. Polite could work, but it has no pair. Shallow, competitive, and cantankerous (disagreeable or difficult to deal with) have no relationship.

As he is a debate coach 'serious, competitive' should work. I don't understand fully.

Actually the sentence tells us the following: it is good sometimes complaining . However, this will not bring us anything of serious or substantial in the argument.
Competitive clearly is out of scope
