While it's true that the early BBB tournaments saw most teams with an inside attack, the strongest commonality was overall good defense.

For teams starting out, it is likely that they will focus on either inside or outside due to training. For long term plans, it makes more sense to finish training the inside or outside players instead of making both mediocre. There may be some short-term losses as a result of lower predictability, but in the long-run, the team will be much stronger.

I have just started playing but one thing I've noticed from playing a few games and scouting future opponents is that when you start out being unpredictable doesn't seem to be a huge factor since a good portion of the lower division teams are not coached by active users and instead are often owned by users who signed in a few times and have since given up and are not booking scrimmages, actively transferring or training and have their tactics set to man/base for every game. If your opponent isn't coaching then you don't need to be predictable.

Obviously it makes a difference in upper divisions (and I assume in the play offs) but right now I am not freaking out too much about trying out trick my opponents and instead trying to figure out this whole training/playing time thing, manage enthusiasm and trying not to overpay for players like I did when I started out.
