Hey @arvcpa_MLBTS, I'll see your PPP questions and raise you a newbie plea for help with Meter.
I've used Meter all season and mostly played offline so I've never needed to get really good. Even on the higher levels offline, if you've got a high diamond and just mix pitches, you're fine.
With that said, I've never bothered to learn the nuances of how to use the meter. I know it's pretty simple, but I have a few questions.
1- what generates velocity? Do you have to hold the button down or tap it 3 times.
2- I'm assuming accuracy and location are controlled by the how close you get the meter to the yellow line, is there anything more to it?
3- how do you control break?
Thanks, I may graduate to PPP but at least for this event and the final ones, I could use the help. Don't worry, you'll still beat me.
I use meter with a decent amount of success.

So I use meter, and I find it to be reliable enough 99% of the time. I also consider myself to be more than decent enough at the game.
I use the 3 click method, but you can use the press and hold method the exact same way. There's no difference aside from personal preference.
Pitch speed is determined by the power or effort on the meter. If you press L2 you'll notice all pitches have a "range" which they throw each pitch. On meter, the tail end of the build up (or red section of the meter) determines that. The beginning of the red will be the lowest part of that pitches range, while the end of the red will be the high end.
The yellow bar on the down portion of the meter is the release. Matching up with the yellow bar makes it so you pitch will fall within the PAR. Missing the yellow bar high will have your pitcher release high, while missing low will likely have the ball lower.
