Hit and miss with Scouts. I urgently needed a replacement DMC and couldn't find a decent one on the market so bought 23yo Scout who is 4 trainings away from 7 star superhero status and a fast trainer too. He was man of the match and scored on his debut. I hit the jackpot with him. However I've also had donkeys who called themselves Scouts in the past. Luck of the draw I guess.
No 50T scouts are fast trainers. And scouts will have seasons they perform well, and then next season they will be a dude. Very inconsistent. As someone else on here said: Scouts are immediate fixes, not long term solutions
