4-5-1 V Counter

[Cletomendez]

I think that if you play 4 4 2 everything normal and dont watch the match, as nikolgiorgios said, you can win

So for a man that usually sticks to one formation only like me, is 4-1-2-1-2 a suicide formation against this? Or does it stand a chance?

I've lost against 4-1-2-1-2 ND, while using 4-5-1v a few times over the years, but it doesn't happen that often either. Your success rate against fairly similar quality opponents playing the "V" will probably be low, but its not impossible either.
