Haking showdown

So /prog/ I was challenged to a hacking showdown by this kid at my school, his name is ron and he says he knows html and he knows how to ddos. The only thing I know is how to get IP from websites on cmd, how do I beat him?

HTML is only beginners programming.  Just read a couple of tuts (that's hacker code for tutorials) on CSS and you should be able to put some hack together (I don't know CSS only basic HTML so I'm not sure I just like hackers and read about them.)
