Before I got Miku, I never tend to have an AMC but having that 1 player that can play as AMC opened up the total number of formations I could play by 50%, It was basically meaning I can play 12 formations instead of 8. I have no intentions of having DML/DMR because of the 2 defenders = illegal formation rule. So any real attacking formations involving DML/DMR are ruled out.
Haha, yeah! Actually, the reason I started to play butterfly formation was the fact that I had the luck to have 3x AML/AMC/AMR on the scoutlist, then DL/DM + DR/DMR. After that, it just it feel into place. I can't imagine playing 4-4-2 or 4-1-4-1 like I did before, to boring and "flat".

At first I was sceptical about the 3N-2W-2N-2W-1 formation (playing with thw DML+DMR), but then I realized it wasn't that bad. You have 3xDC, then additional "DL + DR" for support and defending the flanks. But at the same time, as DML + DMR they are supporting you're midfield (MC) + the two AML+AMR. This mean that you have 6x players in the midfield and a lot of possesion. So going from a 5-4-1 when defending to a 3-6-1 when attacking. Then again, my AML+AMR are more like two additional strikers than "wingers" since they tend to score and assist like hell
