Scouting Question

I have been meaning to ask this, but always forget. Do you get a better advantage to your team's performance if you scout the other team before the midweek cycle ends compared to if you scout before the game time simulation?

You want as much info as you can get before scouting, and I only look at my opponent's plays so for me, anytime between games is the same. If you scout based on your opponent's injuries and free agent signings, then wait until after the midweek spin.

I always wait until after the midweek spin for time management reasons, not strategic ones.

as for the scout offense/defense tab where you pick ten plays.....that part only has an effect for the game spin.

Oh yes... I completely understand that the Scout Offense / Defense tabs should only be at least 1/3 of your scouting. Sometimes I dont make time to do the extra scouting nesessary, but then it bites you in the end. Perfect example is when the Phantoms just played Wolfie's Envy Wasckally Wabbits. I only did the scouting tabs in the gameplan and did not take a good look at his roster, team stats, player stats, and didnt watch any of his previous games. Well Wolfie's trixy wrabbits came into Nether Realm Stadium and almost won it, even though they were heavy underdogs. Just because your team is way up there in the power rankings does not mean you can underestimate any team.

So the answer to my questions for the scouting Offensive ; Defensive plays is that it does not matter if you scout before the mid-week spin, or before the game simulation spin. You still get the same buffs regardless correct?
