A new counter formation thread, updated to April 2013 (Season 38)

one important thing is, do your counter-formations work well because they are counter-formations or because you have a better team than your opponent?

I think we shouldnt call something a counterformation until enough ppl can verify it as working

I think you can't say a counter formation work for only one match. The experience must build on more than one match, at least home and away, the two team must have equal quality players.

your game is not fair i was playing match in the champions league and was takes the lead 3-1 and the other team get red card and me get injury then your server get off with the game connations and after that i check the highlights i found i lose 3-0 and no red cards no goals for me no injury How come that ????? answer me quickly or i'm not gonna play this game anymore and all my friends..

Don't buy it as sure win, it's just my opinion seeing how he's focused on the middle. Let us know how it went.

Think he will play 442 orre 442 with one wing pushed up.
His wingers are the best in his team.

He played 442. I played hard deff counter everything else default,after 20mins i was 1 up but he had 65% play so i switched to long ball
big mistake 2 goals for him, sat in panic till 60 mins then changed to 3142 offside mixed and won 3.2.

you need to factor difference in strength, as i can beat a team even with a wrong formation just bcz am the better side, and another key factor is if he watch his matches or not, home or away, 8%-13% extra on domination is alot to be considered

By this new engine, what would counter a 4-3W-1-2?

A 3N-1DMC-4-1?
A 4-1DMC-4-1?

so how anyone figured out how to beat the 4-4-2 narrow diamond (called 4-1-2-1-2 narrow diamond on these forums) ??

Only met one of those this year, and i beat it with 4-5-1 v.

Ofc, this could all be a coincidence as we're only talking one match. but the teams were fairly even quality-wise, and i had better stats than him in almost all aspects (possesion, shots on/off target, more corners etc)

take it for what it is, its only the smallest of "sample" - but its what little experience i've had against ND so far :)
