Not true, Metaphys already meta without any gold sarc in them. Currently using Metaphys (3x lupine/daedalus/neph/tyrant/asym, 2x dimension, 1x sphere kuri/factor/tth) and easily reached KOG/DLv 25, only bad match up is AG's because of their ability to 🔥 backrow. REBD/BEWD/Neos are ridiculously easy with Daedalus banishing them.
