Can someone please advise where I should place a debounce?

Hey all,

I have a sword script that kills the opponent perfectly. However, there is a line in there that adds to the "Spree" stat. What happens is that, instead of one increment, it does multiple increments. I know that I need a debounce, but Where?

The entire script is around 170 lines long, but I have put down the place where it needs a debounce. Just to note: This was not the original script from where I got it from. If you want me to put in the original script, leave a comment.

    local vPlayer = game.Players:playerFromCharacter(vCharacter)
    local hum = vCharacter:findFirstChild("Humanoid") -- non-nil if tool held by a character
    if humanoid~=nil and humanoid ~= hum and hum ~= nil then
        -- final check, make sure sword is in-hand
