1-3-1 and 1-4

Updated Sep 25, 2026

A 1-3-1 puts one player in each side lane and three mid; a 1-4 puts one player in a side lane and four together.

Both setups pressure multiple places, but differ in how much strength the main group can bring to an objective.

They need vision, coordination and safe exits: if the main group falls, side pressure may arrive too late.
