Oh come on, if TiP actually used this strat in a scrim against CLG and crushed them, then CLG used it in a match, it is them "stealing" the strat. It's that simple, no need to make excuses for your home team. I agree with you though it probably happens all the time, and this was one of those times.

You can't "steal" a strategy, that implies they did something morally wrong. Stategies aren't intellectual property, it's a way of playing. Did TiP discover it was a viable strat? Sure. The strat doesn't belong to them though and there's no moral or ethical quandary in them using it.
Furthermore once you show a strat in scrims you relinquish any right to feel butthurt about your strat being used, it's why you have to be smart about when and where you utilize it.
