Counter Formations Less Effective Now?

[Sxrenity]

Oh okay, we're all wrong.

And no, they aren't stronger, at all. The average quality in regards to star rating is exactly the same, same types of managers, same types of tactics etc.

But yeah, you're right, everyone here is wrong.

I am trolled this season ...12Q difference and I used counter formation still lost the game

Counter Formations Less Effective Now? YES

in this season I use only 4-3N-2W-1 and 4-5-1 V-Style, in 10 games - 9 wins and 1 draw, but I also played this formations in last season and lost/draw 70% my games, even against teams 6Q weaker

if you not have troll season you can win single formation in every game, but if you have troll season you can be beaten by any formation when you have better counter formation

Those two formations seem to be absolutely dominate lately for some reason. It's not just you.
I guess i could switch to using them, ..

yes, for sure very recently something changed in the match simulation
on my side, even if I've a very high ball possession, it is very difficult to score and almost impossible with striker.
And it is not just for me... in the scorer top ten of my leage, the first 3 places are for midfielders.

i noticed a change too

all honesty, i dont believe in counter formations

I've been hating on 4 4 2 for a long time, and recently it seems Narrow Diamond is also harder to beat than before, that is, what I have in the past had fair success with hasn't been working.

But I also wonder if the engine has changed in the way it treats home and away, especially in Cup and CL, I've had some slightly odd results.
