    Not that weird It's a 3-2-2-2-1 B-fly with all the rows flip narrow-wide. Instead of "3-2W-2-2W-1" you have "3W-2-2W-2-1". Though this version has more midfield holding since it does not use wingers (ML/MR are pure midfield in T11).

    Not sure what to counter with, good luck :P

    Wondering if I took the time to type out that fancy formation? Nah, check out my python script!

    I would use a narrow diamond against it, why? It is totally open to all the attacks from the middle, It has no MCs to speak of, no DCs really to stop ND's 2 STs, and especially it doesn't have a center DMC to stop the ND AMC. A Narrow Diamond should if all factors are somewhat equal tear this formation apart.

    ND might work. This really depends if the "weird" formation uses "down both flanks" or not. When I use 4-3W-2-1 I run "down both flanks" and it's enough to over-come any formation that is running wings or single DL/DR.

    There is no entry in the counters chart for 3W-2-2W-2-1, thus no consensus about what is the best counter, I would really want know what is the best counter for it is?

    Looking at other 3W-2DMC formations and 4-3W-2-1 as a guide, I'm going to suggest 4-5-1 flat.
