Off Meta Examples?
4.5BRAINROT SCOREoff meta Gamer term used in Brazilian Portuguese (also "fora do meta"): a pick, build or strategy outside the currently dominant approach (the "meta"), typically a less popular option used to surprise opponents. It is not a judgement on strength: off-meta choices can be inventive or simply weak.
Origin:From the English "off-meta", the opposite of "meta" (short for metagame, the currently dominant strategy).
