metasheep
Insult in MOBAs, particularly League of Legends, that is used to refer to low-level players who treat the current metagame as gospel despite the fact that it's far more relevant for pros than it is for your average schmuck in solo queue. When you rage at someone for doing something sensibly unconventional regardless of how well it's working while asking everyone to report them, you're being a metasheep.
Notice how I said "sensibly unconventional", however. Sensibly unconventional is sending a champ who doesn't normally go in a particular lane into that lane to said lane because they counter the enemy pick for that lane. It is NOT sending a champ who is woefully unsuited for a role to do it anyways just because it's unconventional. You're not breaking the meta by doing the latter, you're just being a little prick. People doing the latter sometimes use "metasheep" as an epithet for the teammates who are quite rightfully bitching them out for it, but they're still in the wrong.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
