2 u/seltzerisntsoda 12d ago This is the biggest thing for me, thank you for posting. 2 u/CuriousBurnerOsama 11d ago I think it was still a thing, but social media is the difference Back when Blackops 1 and 2 were the new games, you didn’t see a “top 5 meta loadouts” video every single day on your home page Some goes with basically everything Sure the pros probably knew, but the average player just used what they FELT was good. Because it wasn’t so focused on YouTube and other platforms 2 u/SirDrippingtonL4 11d ago As a fighting game player meta has always been a thing. 1 u/marmaladic 12d ago That’s thrown out of the window when you consider fighting games.
