The hand is composed of two [[Mentsu#Koutsu|koutsu]] (triplet) and a [[jantou]] (pair) of the third type. | ||

Shousangen requires | Shousangen requires two of the four tile groups to be dragon triplets, leaving no room for [[ittsu]], [[ryanpeikou]], [[sanshoku]], and [[sanshoku doukou]] (which all require three groups). [[Chiitoitsu]] forbids mentsu and is similarly incompatible. Naturally, [[pinfu]], [[tanyao]], [[junchan]], and [[chinitsu]] are incompatible because of the dragon tiles. | ||
Every shousangen hand always scores at least two yakuhai from the two dragon triplets. Normally, when a yaku is guaranteed by another yaku, the guaranteed yaku is not scored. However, because shousangen does not guarantee any particular yakuhai (i.e., it does not guarantee "haku", "hatsu", or "chun"), the two yakuhai are scored. | |||

Shousangen is usually denoted as a 2 han yaku. However, because it is impossible to score shousangen without at least two yakuhai, shousangen is effectively worth 4 han. | |||
The two yakuhai triplets are worth a minimum of 4 fu each, and the yakuhai pair is worth 2 fu. Therefore, the lowest scoring shousangen is 4 han 30 fu, barely shy of [[mangan]]. The requirements to reach 4 han 30 fu, assuming no additional yaku, are: | |||
