Orders, arrow, team quality, player form, condition, morale, random calculation, trolling all comes into play.

That's right!

We need more match to check and finish one counter formation.
And for me, a good couter formation is while a weaker team can beat a stronger or much stronger team !

counter formation need update and also realize 451v is not that effective anymore. my case.

To be honest, this table is pretty much correct eventhough I prefer the update on page 61. Fortunately, it's not always correct: these are not the tables of law! The game would be rather tame if one has just to follow a simple recipe. The quality of oppo matters, orders matter, luck matters...

The updated table is post #659 on page 66...

There are a few more options there, it's more recent and relevant. Don't know what the * is against some of the formations, though.

Some of the more recent formation innovations aren't included, from my POV that's the 2DMC defences and the 3AMW attacks, so probably needs an update - in its own stickied post?

3N-5-2F, 3N-1-4-2. 3N-1-5-1, 4-4-2, 4-5-1V

If you've tried 4-5-1V and that failed, try 4-4-2 Classic. Other than that, 3N-1-4-2 is a good option which I've had a modicum of success with against 4-3W-3.
