I expect divisional qualifications to be similar to qualification rounds at Week 7 events. While I don't expect the level of defense to be quite like this right off the bat, I do expect defense like this before eliminations -- probably by Friday.

It depends. Most teams will have improvements, some of which will be slight, while others could be major overhauls. 'Pre-scouting' on our teams typically consists of the obtaining of match videos, pictures, and OPR, CCWM, and standing information found in Ed Law's database to paint a good idea of what we can expect from a team.

Pre-scout, with the caveat of expecting some amount of change in robots you're scouting.
