What is the definition of "Anti-meta" you are using?
And can you explain Floodgate and Chaos Stun?

Floodgate is the use of cards that slow the opponents gamestate..such as what was once used (fossil dyna, barrier statues, corridor of agony)
chaos stun are Stun like monsters (tking doomcal and the like) in a chaos orientated deck.
antimeta..is a deck based on shutting out or slowing the top tier decks..allowing you to get an edge up and win.

So then why is Counter Fairy not an Anti-Meta subtype? It locks out all decks by negating cards.

I guess it would fit in either thread.

Sounds like I found a new topic to discuss;
What is Anti-meta?

I think that definition changes as the meta does too. It's generally a slower-paced deck meant to inhibit particular plays most commonly seen in the current format. It can involve teching cards in the main deck that are normally side-decked stuff, for example. They have great match-ups against their expected/preferred matchup but can lose Game 1s more to decks that aren't affected at all by such techs and that can mean dead draws in that matchup.
Similarly, stun decks aren't meant or specialized against specific threats but the more general ones. These pack generic floodgate cards or all-around negation/prevention. They can hold their ground decently against most decks out there, including rogue ones because they aren't specialized. They may not perform that much better against some decks more so than others, but they have a more consistent matchup possibility.
