Mahjong Biography

鳥星雨 (ちょうせいう or とりせいう) is an amateur Riichi Mahjong player who first got into the game of Riichi because of Kobayashi Ritz's Saki series, where his favorite character is Shindouji's Captain, Tsuruta Himeko. As a result, 鳥星雨 founded Northwestern University Riichi Mahjong in April of 2018, bringing in new players including his close friend YuukiTheFlash. 鳥星雨 goes by the same pseudonym 鳥星雨 on Tenhou. While he use to regularly play club mahjong with both Northwestern University Riichi Mahjong and Chicago Area Mahjong, 鳥星雨 graduated from Northwestern University in Spring of 2018, and went abroad to study Japanese in a summer program at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.

While at Waseda in the summer of 2018, 鳥星雨 attended weekly meetings of Waseda's Mahjong Club, where he claims to have gotten a lot better at the game. There, 鳥星雨 learned how to "steal Riichi sticks" by pushing after someone else riichis and winning small hands, but taking the Riichi stick in the process. After completing his summer program at Waseda, 鳥星雨 left Japan for his job located in Seoul, Korea, where his only exposure to the game is through playing net mahjong on Tenhou, oftentimes with his friends in the US.

Playing Style

鳥星雨 has a more defensive play-style, and usually folds his hands when he is in the lead. As a result, his average hand win rate (和了率 - Houra ritsu), is on the lower side at 21.6%. 鳥星雨 is a Menzen-type player who rarely calls, highlighted by his very below average (副露率 - Fuuro ritsu) at 25.9%. Despite this, 鳥星雨 does not call Riichi as often and prefers to stay Damaten most of the time, indicated by his low Riichi rate (立直率 - Riichi ritsu) of 18.1%. 鳥星雨 stated that he "plays like super well when he is ahead", but is "absolutely terrible when behind" and needs a gyakuten.
