鳥星雨 is a completely digital player, playing towards maximizing expected values. His playstyle is rather slow and conservative. He tends not to call as often, as he prefers the flexibility that a closed hand offers. 鳥星雨 likes to keep his defensive options open, even at the cost of a faster hand. For example, he likes to have a safe tile that he can use to push his hand during an ippatsu turn. He does not like winning cheap, open hands - even if it is the best option - and will make fun of anyone who wins using such a hand, including himself. | 鳥星雨 is a completely digital player, playing towards maximizing expected values.

Some of his favorite female pros include 魚谷侑未 (Uotani Yuumi), 二階戸亜紀 (Nikaido Aki), and 茅森早香 (Kayamori Sayaka), and some of his favorite male pros include 佐々木寿人 (Sasaki Hisato), 金子正輝 (Kaneko Masateru), and 小林剛 (Kobayashi Gou). 鳥星雨 recently has also grown quite fond of the lower-tier leagues that are broadcast on Japanese TV. | ||
When he wants to actually play mahjong, he goes to [http://cafe.daum.net/richmajak Sillim Mahjong Cafe] semi-consistently as time allows. Online, he plays on [http://tenhou.net/ Tenhou] whenever he feels confident about conquering his ladder anxiety, and in more casual settings (such as on the KTX), he plays on [http://game.nhn-hangame.com/detail.nhn?id=S-MAHJONG Tengokuhai]. | When he wants to actually play mahjong, he goes to [http://cafe.daum.net/richmajak Sillim Mahjong Cafe] semi-consistently as time allows.
