Does the play text indicate when a hot read was used? Or just watching the actual play?

Well it says in the text hot read but maybe there are some moments where it doesn't say?

Interesting. I haven't found any instances in the game log of a hot read yet. Can you link me to one if you have a second?

Any play you scout gives you a boosted advantage when you face it beyond the base familiarity. I don't remember if that was a 0.4 or 0.4.1 addition. The payoff is greater on the blitz plays, but if you scout plays that your opponent doesn't use then you lose out on the gain with the other plays. So it's up to you, certainly if you're facing a heavy blitzer then scouting all blitz plays will be a good idea. If you don't scout the blitz plays but they overuse them, you should start to hot read as well.

Enough said
