To be fair though a lot of times finding what works for you involves emulating someone (or multiple people's) style and then adjusting it to fit your body type, attributes, and personality. You end up discarding things, adding things, adjusting things, and then it becomes your own. So I would argue it's still better to look to what the best guys that have a style that "speaks to you" are doing and that is what will help you find the shit that works for you.
its like saying im going to emulate Micheal Jordan when i play basketball.
but i should really be emulating a way more basic style as ill never be able to do what he does. Then from that basic style i can add to it.
I see lots of unathletic, uncoordinated guys trying to emulate some freaks of nature from the jump and they actually have way less success than just being basic and growing from that point.
im not saying spend years doing techniques that dont work. i dont think anybody does that so its a moot point.
