A fan whose opinion of a certain subject or franchise is determined and/or developed by the opinions of others, especially if presented in the form of statistics or, in a competitive environment, tiers. If prompted, a metafan would mostly, if not entirely, base their reasoning of their views on a studies or reviews made by others rather than develop their own personal bias. In addition, a hardcore metafan would often shame others for not preferring something based on said studies or reviews.
Fan 1: Who's your favorite character in Smash?
Fan 2: I like kirby. He's super fun.
Fan 1: Why don't you like Marth? He's much higher tier and has a more viable kit. It says so on the chart.
Fan 2: Ah, you're one of those metafans.

Someone who blindly follows the so called metagame, or short: meta of an online multiplayer game. Metafags are the whiny types who complain that you take or use a currently unpopular weapon / strategy or character. The annoying thing about this attitude is, that the meta is being developed by high level professional players, and is thus not as significant for casual players who play the game recreationally and just want to have fun and play the game like they please.
While playing overwatch:

Player1: I will play Soldier.
Player2: No! You musst pick McCree Soldier is not in the current meta!
Player1: Dude, don't be a metafag!
