- First off, Down B is your best friend for getting out of Metas combos. Many believe this to be a bad match up, but I think it's only slightly in Metas favor, and this is one of the biggest reasons. He cannot accurately combo ZSS if you play smart and can predict a lot of his attacks. Down B right as he does his Up B is a nice tactic especially. Besides Down B you want to be airdodging a lot, but don't airdodge or down B predictably.
- Catch him with forward Bs when you have the spacing especially while he is in the air.
- Shoot paralyzer shots from a distance, but he can tornado through them. If he starts using the tornado a lot there are a couple things you can do to stop it, but they are situational. One thing you can do is grab him through the tornado Another is d smash the tornado, but that is much harder to time correctly. Both of these will only work if Meta is low enough to the ground at that point.
- I believe your B air BARELY outranges all of his aerials. With good spacing you can challenge him in the air...except for his up B.
- Up air is a good kill move against Meta. He is light, and you should have good opportunities to catch him in the air with it.
