After we already introduced you to the 4-2-3-1 in FIFA 22, we would like to introduce you to the 4-1-2-1-2 (2), which many know as the “narrow diamond”. The narrow diamond is one of the strongest offensive formations and promises a lot of fun. It should definitely be part of your repertoire of formations. So if you haven’t tried it yet, it’s time to do so.

In another FIFA 22 tip video on redbull.com we show you what is important to use the 4-1-2-1-2 (2) formation in the best way. We explain which tactic settings and player instructions are recommended and how the narrow diamond can contribute to more player success in FIFA 22.

Extra tip: Try out different formations!

Many players use only one formation for the entire FIFA – Season . No matter what the reason – lack of interest, lack of knowledge about the game, or even stubbornness, believing that your current formation will eventually work: Merely having one formation in the repertoire is a big mistake. Only those who test out several formations can find out which formation suits them best.

Moreover, regular changes of formations can bring about various positive effects. If you are in a crisis, a new formation may give you new impetus and bring back the fun of the game. If you make a sensible formation change during a match, you can surprise your opponent and perhaps give the game a different twist. Our appeal to all FIFA players is therefore: take the time to try out different formations – this is the only way to broaden your horizons and find out whether your current formation is really the best one for you.
