Can't fucking win a single mahjong on Judgment. Just need this to plat the game

You don't have to remember most yakus, that'd be overkill. Regular wins can be achieve with pinfu, a very simple hand to gather. IIrc, you need a few mangan wins, meaning 5 points or more, you'll have to pray for the RNG to be nice. Collect seat winds, dragon triplets and always keep your hand closed for a riichi or even riichi ippatsu.

>Recommending pinfu to a newbies
>Thinking that pinfu is easy to make for newbies
Retard.

Learn about Tanyao, Riichi, and the dragon/winds and you'll be ready.

We are saying a lot but if you literally just need 5 riichi wins and dont cafe enough to learn beyond that it should be easy. If you take a discard from somebody that "opens" your hand and they can see the set you made with the discard. As long as you have the full number of sets it wont matter what they are as long as yourr hand is concealed. You wont need to learn any other yaku at all, simply obtain the 4 sets and 1 pair.

Like I said before, when u only have one tile left to get it should prompt you to riichi. Just select that and if your winning tile comes up you will be the req for the trophy 1 of the 5 times.

This ain't your anime mahjong thread though, you don't play against anyone else but the NPCs. With the amount of bullshit RNG thrown at you, and the amount of terminals you draw, Pinfu's still a valid strategy to get some quick 1 Han wins. The total outcome of a round doesn't matter, at all.

So the most important:

1- Hand must be CLOSED (not claim pon, chi, kan...)

2- Try to make at least Riichi, Pinfu to win at least 1 Han and pray for a bad hand from opponents.

3- Yakuman are 100% win rate hands but very hard to obtain.

Is that? Sorry for my bad english.

What is Tanyao? Is not on this info.

Yes, i haven't played Judgment but if it's anything like Yakuza then the Yaku list should have a few hands saying that the yaku only works if it's closed or will be worthy less points if it's open
That being said it's okay to go for shitty quick open hands if A: you're the dealer and your hand doesn't have much potential, dealers not only have a boost of x1.5 on your score but also repeats your dealer turn, so in theory you could do a million of shitty hands it would never leave your turn and you'd just be accumulating points, though of course there's no guarantee you'll actually win so going for a sweet heavy hand with the tasty x1.5 should still be the better option
And B: If you're winning, end those rounds quickly and don't let your opponent have a chance to make a comeback

Tanyao's the second one on the list, in small print. "All simples".

>Pinfu's still a valid strategy to get some quick 1 Han wins.
Pinfu is only an easy hand to make if you have good tile efficiency, you dumbass. It doesn't matter if you're playing with people or not. This was proven when retards like you kept telling the newbies in the Soul threads "hurr jus make pinfu" and then they couldn't fucking do it cause they're just starting.

Tanyao is "All Simples". Sorry, one of the bad things about Mahjong is that the players are various degrees of weeaboos, so you'll often see people just randomly switching to however they learned the terms first. All Simples = Tanyao.

Didnt saw it sorry.

But the trophy says to "win 5 whit a open riichi" so i can only use the closed Yaku hands no?

I've never participated in any Soul thread. That being said, with the only difference being the exclusion of terminals, how is Tanyao any more or less complicated to manage than Pinfu?

You can make it open, with sets of triplets, and you don't have to pray that your last set you need to make is going to coincidentally be an open wait. Additionally, the actual rules of how to make pinfu require you to have a full understanding of how to calculate scoring, specifically fu.

When I tell people how to make pinfu, I have to either explain a bunch of extra rules that are somewhat complex and hard to remember, or I have to give them a set of 3 conditionals they have to remember on top of the other shit.

When I tell people how to make tanyao, I just tell them "Don't have 1, 9s, or honor tiles in your hand".

Legitimately, I use the explanation of pinfu as my litmus test when I'm teaching players in real life for when they're ready to move on to more advanced understanding of the game or not.

Well, the thing is, those extra rules don't matter in Yakuza if you're trying to do the completion list as OP is trying to do. The game specifically asks to win after declaring riichi, which you obviously can't do when you have an open hand. Thus I recommended Pinfu.

>those extra rules don't matter in Yakuza if you're trying to do the completion list as OP is trying to do.
They matter in trying to understand why you're forming the hand.
>The game specifically asks to win after declaring riichi,
Riichi will come naturally. OP wants to learn how to actually play the game. He should instead focus his energy on not learning a hand like pinfu and more energy on just learning to riichi in general. Thus, pinfu is still a retarded recommendation for newbies.

I want to learn how to win whit a open riichi. Don't how to riichi yet.

>Just need this to plat the game.
This, to me, is a pretty clear indication that OP simply wanted tips on how to finish said completion list in game, not how to become better at Mahjong in general. I can see where you're coming from, as you seem to enjoy the game a lot more than most people who want to get a trophy in a Yakuza game, and it's commendable that you're trying to educate them about the game in the "correct" (I have no deeper understanding of the game myself, thus the quotation marks) way. But it would would lead to more frustration, in my opinion, rather than using a cheap and dirty, probably bad for real life, playstyle just to finish the game / get the trophy.

Judge Eyes / Judgment
This title introduced the Open Riichi rule. Whenever you have the option to declare Riichi you will also be offered Open Riichi (オープンリーチ). This still costs 1000 points but it's worth two Han (instead of the usual one), however your hand is displayed to your opponents so they can see what tile/s you need! You are more likely to win when you declare Open Riichi early, when you have two or more winning tiles and when other players have already "reached" (so they cannot choose which tiles to discard).

The two Han value applies if you win by Ron when the discarder has declared Riichi or if you win by Tsumo. If you win by Ron with Open Riichi when the discarder hasn't reached then it's scored at the top limit (Yakuman) which is 48,000 pts as east or 32,000 pts otherwise! This should be unlikely but it can happen.

You can't. Riichi is a closed hand. It's actually also fairly complex, but the only part that you really need to know playing a video game is
>Get hand into ready-state/tenpai without ever stealing a tile
>Press delicious free sex button that pops up
Provided you read the guide and don't do something silly like get yourself into furiten, the game will take care of the rest for you.

>>Just need this to plat the game.
It's been a hot minute, and i think there's a new one out, but the last time I checked, it requires you to play a LOT of Mahjong, so you just have to play the game normally, and most of the trophies will come from just playing. Unless this is a new Yakuza, and it literally has a requirement of "Make a pinfu" on the trophy list, he should not learn pinfu until he's well ready for it.

>But it would would lead to more frustration, in my opinion,
And I'm telling you, from EXPERIENEC, newbies have the most difficulties and frustrations with pinfu because of the complexity of the hand followed by the fact it DOESN'T actually come that easily unless you have good tile efficiency, and that comes with time and practice. The better teacher of the non "cheap-and-dirty" playstyle is just simple Riichi. When they learn to go for that hand, things tend to click in place for them.

You're by far the more experienced Mahjong player, that goes without saying, yet as the retard, as you put it, I was still able to complete the 4 Yakuza games I played, by sticking to my retarded way of playing. Hence I'll leave it at that, wish you a good day and hope you'll have plenty of fun playing Mahjong in the future.

Congrats. You played in a stupid way and won. When other people complete the game faster and having better fundamentals than you do, will you still take such a haughty attitude?

I didn't mean for the last part to sound haughty, but re-reading it I can see what you mean. It was meant to sound genuine.

Open riichi is silly. You have a closed hand and when you call riichi, you can call open riichi, which is where you show the opponents your hand.

Oh. Well that was shockingly mature for Yea Forums. Thank you friend, I apologize for my attitude as well.
