A Small Fact About NA Teams Tactics

Ok, I know this will get a lot of hate as I will be essentially bringing up contradictions of the NA mindset.

Every single year in any international event (Except 2 tournaments I will state later) NA teams would exit in a disappointing manor and then state in interviews along the lines of the famous doublelift paraphrase after S3 worlds which holds true until today "It's not about playing the Korean style to the best you can, its about playing your own style and how much you have mastered it" This can even be seen into this last MSI with G2 and the hypercarrying botlane.

I just want to point out the two times NA have correctly done this with TSM at IEM Katowice and CLG at MSI both playing their own style and not necesarily the meta (less so for TSM and more so for CLG)

I have only written this as there seems to be a big push from TSM at the moment that they are "playing to learn new styles and improve" as opposed to perfecting their strengths and at this point there should be no excuses for them if this is the route they want to fail on over and over.
