I don't actually agree that everyone...let alone many people personalise their skillsets. Silva is unpredictable because he has no idea what his attack will be. When the attack just happens all by itself that is personalising the skill and that is what makes it unpredictable.I think I and everyone else can't help but personalise the skills but that doesn't seem enough to develop unpredictability.
If you have the timing to go when your opponents thought has not quite become action you will seem unpredictable.Another is to learn how to lead and read your opponent's mind. You will be far more surprising to someone if they are not focused on what you are about to do.

In a sparring context, one trick is do A three times so your opponent starts to expect A when your move starts off the same way, but then do B. Another is fake high, go low, but after a while, your same sparring partners will know these, so you have to come up with others... I guess it really is try to make the combos as random as possible.
