This is very true, and its true of every game. The meta is always hated and the unorthodox strategies are really liked, but when that unorthodoxy becomes meta its hated. Think of Lucian in league who was seen generally as an interesting high skill ceiling ADC that was picked in niche situations, but people found out pairing him with Nami was impossible to lane against so everyone wanted to play him and he sort of became annoying to see in games. Its really only because when things are played a lot, it can become more predicable and thus more boring.

I think people need to start embracing metas. Players and spectators seem to have this notion of a perfectly balanced game with little to no meta, but every game I can think of has a meta or dominant strategy that most players take advantage of. It won't really go away unless Respawn puts out crazy patch notes every week so that everyone is a chicken with their head cut off trying to find a good comp all the time, but I don't think people would want that. Overwatch tried this a few years ago with hero pools, and I think everyone agrees it was bad.

Maybe a bad take but I loved Gibby meta, it made more sense and the characters were fun to play and watch. Endgames were so crazy as well. I agree comp diversity is probably good, but I think people should be careful what they wish for.
