Cloud 9 always were like:

- Dominate the lanes. Meteos camps Balls, they win every 2v2, Hai plays assassin and even is he loses lane early, he can come back on next step or just farm, botlane can hold their own against bigger boys and smash lesser.

- First dragon. Get there faster, use your advantages with won lanes.
- Just destroy from that place because other team is clueless and won't protect anything anyway.

Whole last summer was like that. C9 lost 3 games, two of those being lost after level ones.

Last Spring it was same with Hai playing everything which isn't banned because his champion pool was getting hurt already.
And now it's just absolute non-existence of his champion pool, Balls not able to win his lane because of teams using trinkets and botlane wasn't top-tier ever.

To go along with that, every team in the LCS has improved their strategy a lot. I remember watching Qt a few months ago and he was asked about how C9's botlane won every game with Ashe Zyra and his response was "that lane sucked ass, everyone in the LCS was terrible though so they could get away with it for team fights and engages"
