@Free Willey: Depending on what you refer guys with the word meta it may makes sense. The general consensus around the definition of this term seems to be: "the most effective way"  of achieving the goal. Even if the game content can be cleared regardless you choices you make, it doesn't mean that there isn't a metagame because your choices can still influente on your success chance or the easiness of the game. I would say that the only type of game where metagame doesn't exist is a game in which your choice won't influente on the outcome of the game like Flower.

In a game like FGO, I think "meta" simply refer about the process of min/maxing your lineup in the to clear a quest as fast as possible. Right now Quick oriented is the best at this. Just like Buster used to be the best at this prior Skadi release.

The funny part is on her own Skadi is far from being as OP as Merlin, it is just because, overall, Quick archetype has the best scaling on buff (enabling 3 stats: dmg, np gen and star gen at the same time) while Buster has the worst (only enabling damage).

Note: meta makes only sense in regards on the current state of the game. Nothing is set in the stone and if one day DW decide that endurance challenge quest should be the norm than Art will like become meta while Quick will fall apart.
