Importance of Scouting

[jodge1706]

It may only be me, but I think this year is probably one of the most important for scouting. You need to know what defenses a team can/cannot cross, so you can select the defenses that will be most beneficial for your alliance. You're also going to want to know what each team can do well when it comes to alliance selection. This year may have a bigger importance when it comes to alliances that any other year. Chances are, there are going to be a lot of teams focusing on a specific task (shooting, breaching defenses) and not trying to do everything they can. Teams on an alliance are going to have to compliment each other well so that an alliance can get every part of the game done. If scouting is not done well (or a team just picks from the highest up on the ranking list), you can be stuck with an alliance with 3 shooters and nobody to cross defenses. Thoughts?
