Your rank will be downgraded if you fall below 0 rank points. You cannot demote from Adept to Novice, and you cannot downgrade while in Novice, but all other ranks allow demotion.
 
==== Celestial Ranking ====
In Celestial, a special ranking system is applied. Players are ranked by a numerical level, as well as using a different way to calculate ranking points.
 
Each level starts with 10 Soul Points, requiring 20 points to upgrade. Losing all the points will lead to a downgrade. Unlike in the past, it is possible to downgrade to Saint III when losing all Soul Points at Celestial Lv. 1.
 
The gain/loss of Soul Points is only determined by rank; end score does not matter. In addition, when all the players are Celestial in a single match, the soul-point changing is doubled.

</nowiki></code>
The result is always rounded up to an integer. (e.g. +68.2 → <code>+69</code>, -1.9 → <code>-1</code>)
In summary, the reward for 1st/2nd is based on the room, while the penalty for last is based on your rank. Placing 3rd in 4-player, or 2nd in 3-player, results in no rank change (other than [[uma]] and final score). E.g., if you play a 4-player game, and place 3rd with 25000 points, you'll end up losing 5 rank points from the uma penalty.

In short:
*You ''always'' lose the entry fee. Therefore, over long periods of play, you should expect to lose copper (unless you are much better than the opponents).
*You gain/lose copper for every 1000 points you gain/lose in game.
*When an opponent is sent below a certain threshold, their copper penalty is capped. The winner's copper gain is reduced proportionally.

== Characters ==
===East vs South===
Currently there're 31 characters in game, including 21 females and 10 males.
Ranking:
* There are 3 components to rank point calculation: final raw score (score at the end), [[uma]] (bonus for placement), and "RankPts" (another bonus for placement).
* Compared to East, South doubles "RankPts", but does ''not'' double uma or final raw score. This means two 1st-place East games > one 1st-place South game. For example:
** Silver Room, 1st place, 4-player East round, 30k score: <code>(30000 - 25000)/1000 + 15 + 20</code> = 40 points/game, or 80 points for two games.
** Silver Room, 1st place, 4-player South round, 35k raw match score: <code>(35000 - 25000)/1000 + 15 + 40</code> = 65 points/game, which is worse than 2 East round games.
* Therefore, if you are ''significantly'' better than the competition, playing East round games will result in a faster rank up than South round games.
* However, once you reach Master 3 or higher, the 4th place penalty is relatively bigger in East than South; two last place finishes in East loses more points than one last place South. At that point onwards, it's better to play South.

* For chest progress and bond points, it is faster to play East than South. South lasts about twice as long for only +50% more progress/game.

=== Bond System ===
=== Bond System ===
Each character has a unique Bond Value. The value can be enhanced by gaming or gifting to unlock corresponding vocals and story plots. At the maximum affection level, all voice lines will be unlocked, and the character will read out yakus after winning a hand. Characters can be entangled to unlock new appearance as a skin that can be chosen, accompanying with 3 extra emotes.
Each character has their own Bond Value, which can be increased by playing games (in rooms that cost copper) or giving gifts to the character. At the maximum affection level, all voice lines will be unlocked, and the character will read out yakus after winning a hand. After reaching the max bond level, characters can be "bonded" to unlock new appearance as a skin that can be chosen, accompanying with 3 extra emotes.

Bond values can be acquired as follows:

* Completing a match in Silver Room or higher:
** 4P East <code>+40</code>, 4P South <code>+60</code>; 3P East <code>+25</code>, 3P South <code>+40</code>.
** 4P East <code>+40</code>, 4P South <code>+60</code>; 3P East <code>+25</code>, 3P South <code>+40</code> (regardless of room rank).
** Extra bond-value enhancement is applied according to the charge amount. (See [[Majsoul#Charge-related Titles|Charge-related Titles]] section)
** VIP points (obtained for buying with real currency) will increase the amount bond points gained. (See [[Majsoul#Charge-related Titles|Charge-related Titles]] section)
* Gifting directly:

** Green Presents <code>+200</code>, Blue <code>+1000</code>, Purple <code>+5000</code>.
** An enhancement of 50% extra bond-values is applied, if the gift type matches character's interest <ref group="note">However this is not always reliable, and sometimes it's misleading. Interests of some characters can match more than one type of gifts (e.g. Natsuki Shinomiya), while some of them can't match any at all (e.g. Hideki Akechi).</ref>.
** If the character prefers a specific type of gift, said gifts give a bonus of +50%. Usually, gifts listed in the character's interest section are prefered.<ref group="note">However this is not always reliable, and sometimes it's misleading. Interests of some characters can match more than one type of gifts (e.g. Natsuki Shinomiya), while some of them can't match any at all (e.g. Hideki Akechi).</ref>.


If playing with a max-bond character, the bond values will be tracked such that every 1000 points grants a "bond gift". Similarly to other blue gifts, this can be given to another character to increase 1000 points of bond value, and also can be donated for 5 dust.
When playing with a character with 5 hearts of bond, any accumulated bond points are instead used to gain gifts. For every 1000 points obtained, you gain a "bond gift". Like other blue gifts, this can given to another character for +1000 bond points, or donated for 5 star dust. Bond gifts do not count towards the daily gift limit.

Gifts can be given to a character to increase your bond with that character (see [[Majsoul#Bond System|Bond System]] section) or turned into gold dust. 50 gold dust can be used at the lucky cat to attempt getting larger rewards, including a new character.
Gifts can be given to a character to increase your bond with that character (see [[Majsoul#Bond System|Bond System]] section), or turned into star dusts if they can be donated. 50 star dusts can be used at the shop to attempt getting larger rewards, including a new character.

=== Stories ===
Stories are character-exclusive contents provided freely to players who owned the corresponding character. Stories can be accessed in each character's info page in dormitory.  The former 3 bonding stages contain <span title="text walls">novel-like descriptive contents</span>. The latter 3 stages provide interactive contents, with multiple branches and different rewards correspondingly. Higher stages contain better rewards.
Currently, there are only 4 characters with story plots: Ichihime, Miki Nikaidou, Anju Suzumiya and Joseph.
=== Skins ===
Apart from standard and bonded skins of each character, more alternative skins can be acquired during events. In the vast majority of cases, these skins both require monetary purchase, by using Outfit Vouchers. Usually each static skin requires 880 vouchers, while animated requires 1,500, and both accompanying with one extra emote.
Outfit Vouchers can be converted to Jades at a 1:1 rate, though this is less efficient than buying Jade directly. Jade cannot be converted to Outfit Vouchers, nor can Jade be used to purchase skins in any means.
=== Exclusive Characters ===
Exclusive characters are characters can be acquired only in a limited timeframe, usually during an event. Regular character pools do not contain them after the acquisition period. Usually, those characters originate from from different animation / manga series, though a few are official characters that are rarity buped.
==== Collab Characters ====
Currently, there have been 9 collabs:
* Linovel: Collab from the light novel website [https://www.linovel.net/ ''Linovel''], including 1 character: Keikumusume.
* Saki: Collab from the manga series ''Saki: the Nationals'', including 8 characters: Saki Miyanaga, Nodoka Haramura, Koromo Amae, Teru Miyanaga, Hisa Takei, Mihoko Fukuji, Ako Atarashi, Toki Onjoji
* Kakegurui: Collab from the manga series ''Kakegurui XX'', including 4 characters: Yumeko Jabami, Mary Saotome, Midari Ikishima, Kirari Momobami.

* Kaguya-sama: Collab from the manga series ''Kaguya-sama: Love Is War -Ultra Romantic-'', including 4 characters: Kaguya Shinomiya, Miyuki Shirogane, Ai Hayasaka, Kei Shirogane.
* Fate/Prisma Illya: Collab from the manga series ''Fate/Prisma Illya'', including 4 characters: Illya, Miyu, Kuro, Gil.

* IDOLM@STER Shiny Colors: Collab from game ''IDOLM@STER Shiny Colors'', including 4 characters: Toru Asakura, Madoka Higuchi, Koito Fukumaru, Hinana Ichikawa.
==== Self-exclusive Characters ====
Self-exclusive characters are Mahjong Soul-original characters that can only be acquired in a limited timeframe. Unlike the collabs, they have a lower rate to summon, and require 300 faith (instead of the usual 150) to exchange. To compensate, the bonding stage rewards extra equipment or decorations, and their bonding skin is animated.
Currently, 4 characters are officially exclusive: Kazuha Saionji, Lily Kitahara, Kurone Toujou, Fuuka Minami.

There are two major types of currency and many sub-currencies.
===Copper===
Copper is the "free-to-play" currency. It can be used for:
*Entering matches. A set amount of copper is required to enter matches, including all ranked matches past bronze room.
*Buying gifts (Shop -> Misc). Gifts can be given to characters to increase bond points. Gifts can also be turned into stardust (Inventory), which can then be used to buy summon scrolls.
Copper can be obtained by:
*Winning matches (though note the [[#Calculation_of_Copper_Coins|entry fee]]).
*Daily quests - every day, 1 quest is given. Completing the quest gives a rank-dependent amount of copper. Up to 3 quests can be accumulated at once.
*Revival tokens - if you are Adept or higher, and below a certain threshold of copper, you may claim free copper once per day.
*Various events and gifts by Yostar.
===Jade===
Jade is the "premium" currency. Despite the mention of free jade, ''there is no way to obtain jade in-game without paying real money''. Jade is primarily used to buy summons. It can also be used to rename your account, create tournaments, rerolling the shop, or can be exchanged for a small amount of copper.
Note:
*"Premium jade" is the jade you buy directly with real money. ''Premium jade is not shared between platforms''. Therefore, when switching between platforms, your jade count may change.
*"Free jade" is the jade obtained daily with the Fortune Charm (not including the 300 jade obtained immediately when buying the charm). Free jade persists between platforms.
===Other currencies===
*Outfit vouchers are bought with real money, and can be used to buy cosmetics (character skins, backgrounds). They can be converted into jade at an inefficient rate, but jade cannot be converted back to outfit vouchers.
*Gifts be given to increase a character's bond points. They can also be converted into stardust (Inventory -> Donate), which can then be converted into summon scrolls. In addition, characters will require purple gifts of certain type in order to reach their maximum bond.
*Spheres can be used to buy loading screens (Shop -> Illustration), and spheres are required to reach a character's maximum bond.
*Bond points are used to level up your character. (See the [[#Bond System|Bond System]] section for more details.)
*Faith is obtained whenever you make a summon (1 faith : 1 summon). They function as the game's "pity" system - 150 faith can be redeemed for a character of your choice, and it can be used to buy other things as well.
*Wishing stones are obtained when obtaining a duplicate character. They can also be obtained by spending faith (1 faith : 1 wishing stone). Wishing stones can be used to buy purple gifts, spheres, and are required to reach a character's maximum bond.
*Star stones are obtained when obtaining a duplicate, non-character cosmetic. They can be used to buy certain cosmetics or blue gifts.

Majsoul (aka Mahjong Soul, Jantama, Jakhon) is a Japanese mahjong game platform developed by CATFOOD STUDIO and distributed by Yostar.

The platform functions as a gacha game. Players may use in game currency to access various functions, such as items and ingame characters. On occasion, periodical events are available for special items, characters, and/or bonuses.

A tournament suite is available for users to become hosts and create their own tournaments. The interface allows hosts to set up tournament systems and custom rules not available in the main platform.

Emoticon panel used during games.

Ladder

The Mahjong Soul ladder is available across three different server groups: Chinese (CN), Japanese (JP), and English (EN). They all follow the same ranking system.

Special Rooms (Depends on room requirements)
  • "Entry Limit" is the minimum # of copper you must have in order to enter the room.
  • "Entry Fee" is the actual cost when a match is started. The entry fee is not reflected when looking at the end-of-match result screen

Misc Notes:

  • Players are not allowed to stream Throne Room matches in real-time. A delay of 5 minutes should be applied when performing a stream.
  • In-game Hints are disabled in Throne Room.
  • Matches in Special Rooms do not affect the player's rank, and are recorded in a separate section of the statistics screen.
  • Special room matches may or may not cost copper. Rooms that cost copper are usually priced identically to Silver Room. Only rooms that cost copper may contribute towards Casual Chest progress.

Celestial Konten 10 SP 20 SP Not applied

Your rank will be downgraded if you fall below 0 rank points. You cannot demote from Adept to Novice, and you cannot downgrade while in Novice, but all other ranks allow demotion.

Celestial Ranking

In Celestial, a special ranking system is applied. Players are ranked by a numerical level, as well as using a different way to calculate ranking points.

Each level starts with 10 Soul Points, requiring 20 points to upgrade. Losing all the points will lead to a downgrade. Unlike in the past, it is possible to downgrade to Saint III when losing all Soul Points at Celestial Lv. 1.

The gain/loss of Soul Points is only determined by rank; end score does not matter. In addition, when all the players are Celestial in a single match, the soul-point changing is doubled.

Calculations

Calculation of Rank Points

  • Oka Points: Not applied
  • Uma Points:
    • 4P: 1st +15, 2nd +5, 3rd -5, 4th -15
    • 3P: 1st +15, 2nd ±0, 3rd -15
  • Starting Points: 4P 25000; 3P 35000
  • RankPts: See below table.
Rank Points
Room 4P (East / South) 3P (East / South)
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 1st 2nd 3rd
Bronze Room +10 / +20 +5 / +10 ±0 Dependent on current rank +15 / +30 ±0 Dependent on current rank
Silver Room +20 / +40 +10 / +20 +30 / +60
Gold Room +40 / +80 +20 / +40 +55 / +105
Jade Room +55 / +110 +30 / +55 +75 / +160
Throne Room +60 / +120 +30 / +60 +120 / +240

Formula: PtsGain = (RawScore - StartingPts) / 1000 + UmaPts + RankPts

The result is always rounded up to an integer. (e.g. +68.2 → +69, -1.9 → -1)

In summary, the reward for 1st/2nd is based on the room, while the penalty for last is based on your rank. Placing 3rd in 4-player, or 2nd in 3-player, results in no rank change (other than uma and final score). E.g., if you play a 4-player game, and place 3rd with 25000 points, you'll end up losing 5 rank points from the uma penalty.

Calculation of Copper Coins

An example of Copper-coin's calculation

The calculation of copper coins is a bit complex.

The Entry Fee is always applied as long as a match is taken successfully, although it's not shown in the final result.

For the Gain/Loss of a match, the calculation is as follows:

  1. Calculate End Score based on final point results.
  2. Calculate Copper-coin lost for negative End Scores based on the exchange rate. The lost is always capped to a maximum lost (MaximumLost = EntryLimit - EntryFee) if exceeded the limit (EndScore < -40).
    Room Entry Limit / Entry Fee Maximum Lost Exchange Rate
    Bronze Room 0 / 0 - -
    Silver Room East
    South    		 2500 / 500
    3500 / 700    		 2000
    2800    		 50
    70
    Gold Room East
    South    		 5000 / 1000
    7000 / 1400    		 4000
    5600    		 100
    140
    Jade Room East
    South    		 10000 / 2000
    14000 / 2800    		 8000
    11200    		 200
    280
    Throne Room East
    South    		 10000 / 2000
    14000 / 2800    		 8000
    11200    		 200
    280

    Formula: CoinsLost = EndScore<-40 ? MaximumLost : EndScore*ExchangeRate

  3. Sum up the total lost.
  4. Distribute the coins proportionally to other players based on End Score.

    Formula: CoinsGain = Sum(CoinsLosts) * EndScore / Sum(PositiveEndScores)

In short:

  • You always lose the entry fee. Therefore, over long periods of play, you should expect to lose copper (unless you are much better than the opponents).
  • You gain/lose copper for every 1000 points you gain/lose in game.
  • When an opponent is sent below a certain threshold, their copper penalty is capped. The winner's copper gain is reduced proportionally.

East vs South

Ranking:

  • There are 3 components to rank point calculation: final raw score (score at the end), uma (bonus for placement), and "RankPts" (another bonus for placement).
  • Compared to East, South doubles "RankPts", but does not double uma or final raw score. This means two 1st-place East games > one 1st-place South game. For example:
    • Silver Room, 1st place, 4-player East round, 30k score: (30000 - 25000)/1000 + 15 + 20 = 40 points/game, or 80 points for two games.
    • Silver Room, 1st place, 4-player South round, 35k raw match score: (35000 - 25000)/1000 + 15 + 40 = 65 points/game, which is worse than 2 East round games.
  • Therefore, if you are significantly better than the competition, playing East round games will result in a faster rank up than South round games.
  • However, once you reach Master 3 or higher, the 4th place penalty is relatively bigger in East than South; two last place finishes in East loses more points than one last place South. At that point onwards, it's better to play South.

Character Bonding:

  • For chest progress and bond points, it is faster to play East than South. South lasts about twice as long for only +50% more progress/game.

Characters

Main article: List of Mahjong Soul characters

Currently, there are 99 characters available:

  • 60 characters are permanently available as starting characters or in the gacha, the rest are limited-time only.
  • 72 females, 27 males.

Every user is granted access to Ichihime and Miki Nikaidou. Additional characters must be summoned via the gacha system, with Jade as currency or with the Summon Scroll item. Jade can only be acquired via monetary purchase, while Summon Scrolls may be obtained via events, system mail as gifts, or purchase in the item shop.

Most non-collab characters are always available in the gacha. The others (including most collab characters) can only be obtained in the gacha for a limited time.

Bond System

Each character has their own Bond Value, which can be increased by playing games (in rooms that cost copper) or giving gifts to the character. At the maximum affection level, all voice lines will be unlocked, and the character will read out yakus after winning a hand. After reaching the max bond level, characters can be "bonded" to unlock new appearance as a skin that can be chosen, accompanying with 3 extra emotes.

Bonding Stage
Level Upgrading Total Required Notable Rewards

* Yaku spelling
* Gain gifts in place of bond points
💛💛💛💛💛 Bond with required resources * Story rewards [note 2]
* Bonded skin
* Extra emotes x3
* SP voice

Bond points can be acquired as follows:

  • Completing a match in Silver Room or higher:
    • 4P East +40, 4P South +60; 3P East +25, 3P South +40 (regardless of room rank).
    • VIP points (obtained for buying with real currency) will increase the amount bond points gained. (See Charge-related Titles section)
  • Gifting directly:
    • Green Presents +200, Blue +1000, Purple +5000.
    • If the character prefers a specific type of gift, said gifts give a bonus of +50%. Usually, gifts listed in the character's interest section are prefered.[note 3].

When playing with a character with 5 hearts of bond, any accumulated bond points are instead used to gain gifts. For every 1000 points obtained, you gain a "bond gift". Like other blue gifts, this can given to another character for +1000 bond points, or donated for 5 star dust. Bond gifts do not count towards the daily gift limit.

Gifts

Gifts can be given to a character to increase your bond with that character (see Bond System section), or turned into star dusts if they can be donated. 50 star dusts can be used at the shop to attempt getting larger rewards, including a new character.

Gift Quality Resulting Star Dust
Green 1
Blue 5
Purple 25

Stories

Stories are character-exclusive contents provided freely to players who owned the corresponding character. Stories can be accessed in each character's info page in dormitory. The former 3 bonding stages contain novel-like descriptive contents. The latter 3 stages provide interactive contents, with multiple branches and different rewards correspondingly. Higher stages contain better rewards.

Currently, there are only 4 characters with story plots: Ichihime, Miki Nikaidou, Anju Suzumiya and Joseph.

Skins

Apart from standard and bonded skins of each character, more alternative skins can be acquired during events. In the vast majority of cases, these skins both require monetary purchase, by using Outfit Vouchers. Usually each static skin requires 880 vouchers, while animated requires 1,500, and both accompanying with one extra emote.

Outfit Vouchers can be converted to Jades at a 1:1 rate, though this is less efficient than buying Jade directly. Jade cannot be converted to Outfit Vouchers, nor can Jade be used to purchase skins in any means.

Exclusive Characters

Exclusive characters are characters can be acquired only in a limited timeframe, usually during an event. Regular character pools do not contain them after the acquisition period. Usually, those characters originate from from different animation / manga series, though a few are official characters that are rarity buped.

Collab Characters

Currently, there have been 9 collabs:

  • Linovel: Collab from the light novel website Linovel, including 1 character: Keikumusume.
  • Saki: Collab from the manga series Saki: the Nationals, including 8 characters: Saki Miyanaga, Nodoka Haramura, Koromo Amae, Teru Miyanaga, Hisa Takei, Mihoko Fukuji, Ako Atarashi, Toki Onjoji
  • Kakegurui: Collab from the manga series Kakegurui XX, including 4 characters: Yumeko Jabami, Mary Saotome, Midari Ikishima, Kirari Momobami.
  • Akagi: Collab from the manga series Akagi: The Genius Who Descended into the Darkness, including 2 characters: Shigeru Akagi, Iwao Washizu.
  • Kaguya-sama: Collab from the manga series Kaguya-sama: Love Is War -Ultra Romantic-, including 4 characters: Kaguya Shinomiya, Miyuki Shirogane, Ai Hayasaka, Kei Shirogane.
  • Fate/Prisma Illya: Collab from the manga series Fate/Prisma Illya, including 4 characters: Illya, Miyu, Kuro, Gil.
  • Code Geass: Collab from the anime series Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, including 4 characters: Lelouch Lamperouge, C.C., Suzaku Kururugi, Kallen Kouzuki.
  • Blue Archive: Collab from the mobile game Blue Archive, including 4 characters: Shiroko, Hoshino, Mutsuki, Aru.
  • IDOLM@STER Shiny Colors: Collab from game IDOLM@STER Shiny Colors, including 4 characters: Toru Asakura, Madoka Higuchi, Koito Fukumaru, Hinana Ichikawa.

Self-exclusive Characters

Self-exclusive characters are Mahjong Soul-original characters that can only be acquired in a limited timeframe. Unlike the collabs, they have a lower rate to summon, and require 300 faith (instead of the usual 150) to exchange. To compensate, the bonding stage rewards extra equipment or decorations, and their bonding skin is animated.

Currently, 4 characters are officially exclusive: Kazuha Saionji, Lily Kitahara, Kurone Toujou, Fuuka Minami.

Currency

There are two major types of currency and many sub-currencies.

Copper

Copper is the "free-to-play" currency. It can be used for:

  • Entering matches. A set amount of copper is required to enter matches, including all ranked matches past bronze room.
  • Buying gifts (Shop -> Misc). Gifts can be given to characters to increase bond points. Gifts can also be turned into stardust (Inventory), which can then be used to buy summon scrolls.

Copper can be obtained by:

  • Winning matches (though note the entry fee).
  • Daily quests - every day, 1 quest is given. Completing the quest gives a rank-dependent amount of copper. Up to 3 quests can be accumulated at once.
  • Revival tokens - if you are Adept or higher, and below a certain threshold of copper, you may claim free copper once per day.
  • Various events and gifts by Yostar.

Jade

Jade is the "premium" currency. Despite the mention of free jade, there is no way to obtain jade in-game without paying real money. Jade is primarily used to buy summons. It can also be used to rename your account, create tournaments, rerolling the shop, or can be exchanged for a small amount of copper.

Note:

  • "Premium jade" is the jade you buy directly with real money. Premium jade is not shared between platforms. Therefore, when switching between platforms, your jade count may change.
  • "Free jade" is the jade obtained daily with the Fortune Charm (not including the 300 jade obtained immediately when buying the charm). Free jade persists between platforms.

Other currencies

  • Outfit vouchers are bought with real money, and can be used to buy cosmetics (character skins, backgrounds). They can be converted into jade at an inefficient rate, but jade cannot be converted back to outfit vouchers.
  • Gifts be given to increase a character's bond points. They can also be converted into stardust (Inventory -> Donate), which can then be converted into summon scrolls. In addition, characters will require purple gifts of certain type in order to reach their maximum bond.
  • Spheres can be used to buy loading screens (Shop -> Illustration), and spheres are required to reach a character's maximum bond.
  • Bond points are used to level up your character. (See the Bond System section for more details.)
  • Faith is obtained whenever you make a summon (1 faith : 1 summon). They function as the game's "pity" system - 150 faith can be redeemed for a character of your choice, and it can be used to buy other things as well.
  • Wishing stones are obtained when obtaining a duplicate character. They can also be obtained by spending faith (1 faith : 1 wishing stone). Wishing stones can be used to buy purple gifts, spheres, and are required to reach a character's maximum bond.
  • Star stones are obtained when obtaining a duplicate, non-character cosmetic. They can be used to buy certain cosmetics or blue gifts.

In those cases the hand is counted as triple yakuman. [3]

3P-Mahjong

3P-Mahjong (Sanma) is a variation that allows 3 players to start a game. The ruleset of Majsoul sanma is nearly identical to Tenhou sanma.

There are two different scoring mechanics ingame, by default Tsumo-Loss is applied in Ranked Matches, while North-Bisection is provided as an alternative option in Friendly Matches.

Ruleset in details

  • Starting points: 35000, End points: 40000
  • Uma points: First +15, Second ±0, Third -15
  • Rinshan-tile amount: 8 tiles
  • Tiles from to are not used, thus Mixed Triple Sequence (Sanshoku Doujun) yaku is unavailable.
  • When Dora indicator is , Dora is .
  • Red fives: 2 tiles ( and )
  • Honba point: 200 points for each Honba stick
  • No-ten penalty: 2000 points
  • Completing a sequence by calling Chii: Disabled
  • North can be used for replacement dora "Kita" (Nukidora / Kita).
    • After a Kan (Rinshan Kaihou) yaku is applied when winning a hand with rinshan tile from North replacing.
    • North replacing can be robbed even with non-yakuman hand. However Robbing a Kan (Chankan) yaku is not applied, the hand itself still requires another yaku to win with.
    • North replacing cannot be claimed immediately right after Pon.
    • North replacing is similar to a calling action, thus this can nullify Ippatsu (Ippatsu), Blessing of Earth (Chiihou), Nine Different Terminals and Honors (Kyuushu Kyuuhai) and Double Riichi (Daburu Riichi).
    • North replacing does not lead to a furiten of North.
  • North is treated as guest-wind tiles (Otakaze), a triplet of North cannot get 1 han as Value Tiles (Yakuhai / Fanpai).
  • Due to lacking of North seat, there're no abortive draws of Four-wind Discarded (Suufon Renda) and Four-player Riichi (Suucha Riichi).

Calculation of Scoring Points

Currently there are 2 different scoring methods ingame:

  • Tsumo-Loss (default): Winner loses the income from North seat when the hand is completed by Tsumo.
  • North-Bisection: The income from North is equally divided and distributed towards every other seats.

In Ranked Match, Tsumo-Loss is applied.

The scoring table with Tsumo-Loss is basically identical to regular 4P-mahjong:

The calculation on Tsumo is finished by the following steps:

  1. Calculate the scoring points based on 4P-Mahjong.
  2. Equally divide North seat's payment (round up to whole hundreds).
  3. Append the half North payment to other seats.

E.g. A non-dealer wins with a hand of 40fu 3han.

  1. Based on 4P-Mahjong, dealer should pay 2600, while non-dealer 1300.
  2. North pays 1300, half of the payment is 650 -> round up to 700.
  3. Dealer actually pays 2600 + 700 = 3300, while non-dealer 1300 + 700 = 2000.

Notes:

    6 VIP points = 6 CNY ≈30 NTD or ≈1 USD <CN> / 1 USD <EN> / ≈120 JPY <JP>.
    • The prices in JP server are slightly increased from October 1st, 2019 due to an increasement of consumption tax.
    • The price of Outfit Voucher in JP server's iOS frontend are slightly increased from October 5th, 2022 due to the increased cost of using iOS App Store.

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 Sometimes called Ichihime's Gift Box.
  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Story rewards are currently acquirable only for characters containing story plots.
  3. ↑ However this is not always reliable, and sometimes it's misleading. Interests of some characters can match more than one type of gifts (e.g. Natsuki Shinomiya), while some of them can't match any at all (e.g. Hideki Akechi).
  4. ↑ Of course, including winning Tenhou and Chiihou both once. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
