I'm not very expert but my understanding is you beaten by counter formation. You playing 4-1-3-2 and if I'm playing against you I'll happily go on your flank, using 4-1-4-1 or 4-5-1v or 4-3-2-1; my both dc + dmc plus one mc will good enough to protect your 'through the middle' attack, so my 4 wingers easily dominate your flank.

If you are 25 or 30% or more higher q than me then I might have to put blue arrow on my second mc and wait for my wingers bring result by defending with counter attack.
