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. 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. | Tanki, or single tile, is best used when seeking to win off of a player's discard.
