This absolutely true. Too many people get caught up in the "this strategy worked so it's obviously the only strategy that will work" mindset. It's just not true in CoP. There are many ways to beat every battle.
I remember when I was doing CoP right as it was introduced, everyone talked about how only Ninjas and Summoners could help you pass many of the fights. My group didn't have a Ninja, just a Paladin, and only one Summoner, but we were able to play to our strengths and find ways to beat every single battle all the way to the end with no guides and only occasional sketchy information about each battles.
Stay flexible, study the enemies, persevere, prepare, and you'll do fine.
