Meta-game is actually a pretty tricky word to define. You know how strategy in various fighting games develops over time (you can see this reflected in ever changing tier lists). A meta-game is the same thing, but more localized. Street Fighter is a very yomi and guess heavy game, so the fact that people play differently in different areas can have a big impact on the game. The separate areas evolve meta-games different from one and other.
