Which sport is currently in the worst meta and why?

Like anything, they try to reduce concepts into smaller words until they lose their meaning. Apparently it's an acronym for "most effective tactics available;" the best way to win the game.

(You) are the worst meta poster

Right, that makes sense now. Stupid zoomers, meta already has a meaning and associated terminology.
Ok, so let's have a cigarette and think on this. Thanks user.

It turns out to win championships in basketball all you have to do is stack your team.

The sports with excessively enforced parity: NASCAR, rugby league, american football, australian football.
NASCAR was based on parity as stockcars and it was good when it had a lot a varied races under different conditions and none of this chase bullshit, it doesn't need gimmicks, and it has destroyed itself by ruining its own meta by adding in too much random shit.
The other three football codes mentioned above because now they have rebuilding years and varying degrees of tanking (less so in rugby league because no draft but teams still have to go lean because of salary cap backended contracts). The meta in all 3 of these codes is to have your stars in key positions and basically moneyball workhorse type players in the other positions. It's creating too many archetypal players and ruining creativity and flair.

Basketball thanks to GSW and the faggot chucker high school kids

>most effective tactics available
it's a good summation but it's not an acronym

it's like a game above the standard play of the sport. Mindgames, resource management, substitution tactics, formations etc etc etc

also, it's Tennis. Big 3 still winning most of the tournaments after over 10 years

and baseline sluggers have rekt every other playstyle for 15y+, with the only exception being the literal GOAT in his older age

This. At least with apehoop the warriors get taken to seven games by the rockets and have to fight to win. Mercedeswinslol is a snoozefest and the only interesting thing about f1 is mid tier teams like williams shitting the bed.

>salary caps are bad

kys

This. Fuck the memeriors.

soccer

>defend and wait for enemy to push up
>do a fast counter with token Ngubu on the side
>cross backwards
>score

do this repeatedly unless your name is Guardiola and win

sad but true. at least we have a non-merc on the pole for tomorrow.

tennis has a shit meta but it's not exactly because of the big 3. nadal and djokovic are kings of the meta because they are composed and athletic so they can take advantage of the slow courts, but federer is a thowback. he tries to win points quickly and with variety, he is often anti-meta.

i'd describe the meta as the game within the game. like basketball is about scoring more points than the other team, but the game within the game is getting open 3s and limiting open 3s because they're way more valuable

soccer has one of the best metas. many different ways to win, every time it looks someone has broken the sport it gets rebroken. not even top 10 worst meta.

apejump aka noghoop
>be black
>be tall
>can chew gum
>get paid millions
worst thing is it is by far the most popular major sport outside of usa

Without a doubt this . But one should also mention the endurance sports that are dominated by known doping abusers, especially cycling, but also winter and summer olympics stuff. And in this regard an honorable mention goes to bodybuilding (if you consider it a sport), doping infested and went from actually aesthetic people to freakishly huge mass niggers.

Easily basketball because
is not an sport

French Ligue 1

tell that to Poop Fraudiola

Powerlifting.
It has reached a state of paradox where the sport is about lifting as much weight as one can but the meta is about being geneticaly gifted enough to avoid having to lift weight thanks to the way they're gonna bend and twist their body to reduce the range of motion as much as possible

>Powerlifting
>sport

the three point line was a mistake

>Which sport is currently in the worst meta and why?
NBA.
luckily though, it seems to be coming to an end once the Warriors lose this series.
maybe the league will actually be watchable.

>looks at team that's "beating" (>implying the series isn't rigged for Toronto to win) the Raptors
>runs the old LeBron James-drives-and-kicks-out-to-shooter offense
>thinking that's a better meta than pace and space
I swear, Warriors haters are literally 0 IQ drones.

*the Warriors

wow great argument fagtron

>Meta (from the Greek meta- μετά- meaning "after" or "beyond") is a prefix used in English to indicate a concept which is an abstraction behind another concept, used to complete or add to the latter.

Yes. It's actually astonishing how shit Formula 1 is at the moment. I can't think of a way it could get any worse.

Besides football, you mean.

it was interesting that italian game in 2017 rugby union gaining this whole new tactic

what others metas have changed a lot recently?

for north american sports, i think basketball had the biggest meta change recently. im not sure if id call it interesting, but meme chucking really did change the game. the mid range is all but dead.

it goes to show how the spurs were ahead of the game with respect to not going for offensive rebounds and killing the pace of the game as defensive tactics. transition 3s are absolutely impossible to defend, and that's really what the raptors are trying to defend by taking the shot clock down and running back on d. even tho the new nba is about 3 balls, the new meta regarding that is transition

The fact that millions still watch this shit is the biggest surprise.

CSGO

This
Can’t believe there’s a worse competition than this one currently

not a sport, even skeleton is more of a sport

>Stupid zoomers, meta already has a meaning and associated terminology.
First of all, meta is millennial, not zoomer and they're using it as that meaning that it already has.
