Formation
This yakuman requires four kan calls. As a result, the hand in tenpai always uses hadaka tanki. In order to call a single kan, a player must draw at least 3 out of 4 of a single tile type. This yakuman is the most difficult yakuman to attain tenpai, let alone score. That is due to the need to call kan four times. If any of those tiles are rendered unavailable, it forces the hand to seek other possible tiles to call kan with; or the hand is made virtually impossible.
