Meter System
Meter (and meter stocks) is shared by the team and persists between rounds, win or lose. If a character was in POWER UP mode at the end of a round, any remaining time on the POWER UP timer will be reset to zero and the player will start the next round in a normal power state; no meter will be recovered from any unused time.
