What about
Tiger
(for UN)? The comparison is usually positive, but it has a double meaning here on MS.

With the whole 'he's a good player, but usually disliked'.

I'd prefer Gabriel for the simple fact that I immediately get the connection while I had to google Metatron, that might be my atheism induced lack of knowledge though.

I don't think the Frisian is particularly relevant unless I'm missing some double meaning.

Shoulder-Daemon
would be better I think.

I know. Since when is the place someone is from relevant for the title?

I'm not getting people are suggesting a title that means he looks good in pictures while he actually is known for spamming pictures.

So why photogenic?

Deliberately putting the opposite to what someone is/does can be funny, but title also need to be understandable.

I know what you're going for, it's just that the title says something completely different.

Sure, Tazaro is not photogenic at all. The thing about him that's memorable about him though is the fact that he keeps posting pictures which is separate from that.

I didn't get that part from the earlier discussion, just the 'posts a lot of pictures'. It makes a lot more sense now.

I echo this sentiment. Plus Card Tsar is nowhere near as clever or amusing. It's just two separate references slapped together without any real purpose.
It's card [something]. In this case the something is Tsar because it happens to reference something else on MS and it sounds good.

I personally like it as a title, but that might be because for once I know exactly what the title is based on.

Use a reference to Poe's law, it combines both the 'is he serious?' part of his posting and the religiousness part.
