Tanki: Difference between revisions

Tanki, or single tile, is best used when seeking to win off of a player's discard.  While the number of waiting tiles is limited to a maximum of three, the pattern has its uses.  It's greatest strength stems from its ability to select any tile as a waiting tile, barring any tile limitations applied by certain yaku.  Often enough, this pattern may confuse players; and even traps, like [[suji]] traps, may be employed.  Waits involving honor tiles, especially when one is discarded, is actually powerful, because players may believe those tiles are actually [[defense|safe tiles]].  All-in-all, this pattern is best used to counter or bait players, who are looking to defend.
