It is now 9-6-2015, and for 1 year I have tried numerous formations against 4-1-2-1-2 ND, including 4-1-3w-2, 4-4-2, 3n-1-3n-1-2, and 4-5-1 V. None have worked consistently.
Then I read this 5-13-2013 thread: http://forum.topeleven.com/formation...w-diamond.html
I tried Der Panzer's 4-1DMC-3n-2 formation (Normal, mixed, mixed, off; Low, normal, zonal, off; Down arrows 2DCs) against an opponent slightly better than me (he 131.5, me 130.5), and I lost 0:3.
Then I tried crystnel's 3n-1-4-2 formation (Normal, DBF, short, off; Low, normal, zonal, off; Up arrows ML/MR), and I scored 3:0 in the first 24 minutes! I won with a final score of 4:2. AMAZING!
TRY CRYSTYNEL'S FORMATION 3N-1-4-2 AGAINST 4-1-2-1-2 ND! IT WORKS WONDERS!
