I'd say that Das Kapital is more important to read than the communist manifesto. It addresses quite a bit more points and sticks more to economic concerns rather than social. It can get repetitive, but at least dipping your toes in this book is crucial if you really want to get to communists in debate.
Note that he doesn't address arguments in the same manner that a capitalist does. He comes from a different angle, and understanding that is a big part of how to speak to communists. It lets you get to the foundations of their beliefs
