I've never felt like someone was making up the rules of a game as they go more than listening to this.
"You see, this is worth 1000 points because Kate is a Tarus and it's been more than 3 1/2 hours since Dan's last bowel movement. It would have been worth 2000, but the McRib is not currently for sale at McDonalds."
It’s like a direct quote from the vid, LOL
It's like watching some sci-fi movie where they're playing the most over the top wacky game possible
As a regular mahjong player, you quickly realize this game sounds like Calvinball to basically anyone on the outside, lmao
I noticed he could have gone for four triplets instead of dumping his 1 bamboos and not ponning the 2 bamboo
"The suits are red, bamboo, and tires" made me laugh way more than it should have
"whoever just dropped a tile is about to get sucked" Seems like a game I need to start playing.
You should, it's a fun game.
little brother spam in chat.
Dude not gonna lie. Half the stuff NL said, I was just like "Uh. Sure..."
You should totally try and learn the game! I’m not super up to speed on Monster Train so half the time it seems like Ryan is speaking another language to me. Every game has its lingo and learning curve and Mahjong’s pretty satisfying
@@beemaack Dude the first video when I looked for the rules was literally 3 and a half hours long. I mean, I'll be fine.
umbaupause It’s a good video. You really only need to watch the first hour. The rest is about scoring and hand strategies (which video game versions already help with). I literally didn’t know how to play a week ago but after watching that NL best of June video I got interested, learned a little, and have won several games online now. It’s great!
However, I still totally understand your position. Play whatever seems fun to you!✌🏻
"There's three suits. Red, bamboo, and tires..."
Reading all these chapters of Saki has not helped me learn much about riichi mahjong...
Curious.
This man calls himself "the Northern Lion."
Yet, he plays on the Southern side of the board.
Explain?
Well he did screw up directions early in the video
@@MadcapMachinations I thought he messed up the directions at 0:45 too but he actually meant the in-game NESW player positions you can see marked in the center of the board, next to the points. The North and South positions are reversed from what you might expect from a western/English perspective.
I'm impressed. As a person who actually know how to play Riichi Mahjong, NL actually did really good job teaching you the basic rule while playing the game.
Yeah, there’s absolutely zero chance I’m ever going to understand how the heck this game is played.
theres a lot of finer details but the loop is pretty easy mahjong soul is a free game on mobile and steam that has a good tutorial to get started if your interested. I love riichi with a passion so im out here trying to get more english speakers in.
You can probably get on Egg's level in a couple of days. It's not as difficult as you think, but it's hard to master.
this is how the not NA viewers felt during baseball, now it's our turn
litapd311 it’s ok most NA viewers have no idea how baseball works either
@@revi5555 true, i still have no idea when exactly you can run to a base after a caught ball, or how sometimes you can force out at a base besides first but other times you can't
"Oh he just Sumoed" Well I'm glad you said it cause I have no idea what the heck was going on. It's all Calvinball to me, brotha.
Sick reference bruh
Tsumo means you draw the tile you need to win, as opposed to playing another player's discarded tile. If you win off another player's tile it's called Ron.
Tsumo* It means you topdecked your winning card, Hearthstone style.
Brother I would be as lost as you if NL hadn't recommended Mahjong Soul in this video.
When I started watching this I understood 0% of what was happening in the game.
Having finished watching, I feel like I understand about 0.00001%.
The goal in poker terms is, get multiple straights of 3 stones (without 3 of a kind) , get multiple 3 of a kind (without straights), aim for 3 west,east,north,south for the direction you are sitting, 3 dragon tiles, sets without 1 or 9's, get a flush of any combination, get a flush with only straights, get a flush with triples (worth the most). And ofcourse, do this before the rest can. Any points you lay on the board by stealing that aren't dragons or w,e,n,s are "discarded" unless it's the very last stone you need (which btw makes you discard a stone on your board so you can get out earlier). Yes there are more ways to get points but from what I gathered, these are the basics NL explained so far.
(sidenote, you are allowed one "pair" in the triples and straights)
there is some correct stuff and some incorrect. Goal is to make a 3 3 3 3 2 hand in most cases where 3 can be either sequence of same suit (123 678 456 789 etc) or 3 of a same tile (and same suit ofc) and 2 is pair of any kind. there some exeptions liek 7 pairs but thats not important from the get go. Value of the hand determined by amount of Yaku in that hand.
You get Yaku from making certain combinations. even if you dont know them (and you actualyl should) most of the beautiful looking stuff is a yaku. do you have all tiles of the same suit - get some Yaku. Do you have 123456789 of the same suit in your hand - get some Yaku. do you have only triplets and pairs in your hand (like 333 222 999 444 EE) get some Yaku. do you have same sequence in the same suit like 456456 of the same suit - get some yaku.
Other methods are your dragon tiles (red white green) seat winds triplets (NESW) and Round wind triplets (in east round (which NL played) East wind triplet is always worth a yaku, regardless of your seat. but if you are East seat in east round East triplet worth 2 Yaku for you. once for seat and once for round )
Each turn you draw one tile and discard one tile while trying to build your hand. And there starts interaction. If the tile they discarded is last tile you need to complete the hand (and your resulting hand will have Yaku) you can call Ron and person who discarded the tile that finished your hand pays you points according to Yaku you have.
If you have a pair in hand and someone drops same tile you can take it and make yourself a triplet - this is called Pon. You can Call Pon from any player discard but that makes your hand "Open" some Yaku cost less or not applied to open hands so it's always a choice - progress your hand faster by making it cheap, or risk not getting that tile later. people often call Pon on dragon or wind tiles
There is also Chi. By calling chi you take discarded tile that completes a sequence in the suit. like if you have 45 and opponent discards 3 or 6 in the same suit - that is chi. but you can only call chi from your left hand player.
Lastly there is riichi. Riichi is artificial Yaku that you get by paying 1000 points when you in tenpai (1 tile till winning). By declaring riichi you say to others thats your hand is almost ready and they need to be careful. Also you cant change your hand after declaring riichi and discard anything you draw unless it is your winning tile. but if you win in those conditions your hand will be more valuable since you put yourself at disadvantage. That is especially important since by the rules you cant win on the tile that you discarded earlier in the game. so anything in your discard is absolutely safe so good players will likely go into defense and only discard safe tiles if you call riichi.
Lol it's a long post. and i was just trying to make a quick tutorial. hope someone reads it at least. or even better understands this mind flood XD
@@Istalior I was reading, then realized I'll have to play in person for this to sink in.
yea, i think Mahjong is fun and worth learning. But it's really up to a person. If you want to try - Mahjong Soul have a tutorial and it is generally the best way to play Mahjong on PC.
@@Istalior Yeah I started Mahjong soul as well, but on my phone since apparently they got a mobile app since a year ago
This game is Cones of Dunshire tier complicated and every time I think I'm starting to understand NL brings up some brand new terms, but I love it
The basics are actually not hard to grasp, but the hard part is remembering all the yaku and knowing which ones are smart to go for and figuring out which ones your opponents are probably going for, so if you're against someone who knows all that stuff you stand no chance of winning.
It's really not lol extremely simple
I watched the whole video and still have no idea what is going on. POGGERS
17:51 *NORTHERN* Lion in the *NORTHERN* Seat looking for 3 *NORTHERN* Tiles? The world is a lovely place.
Yo this is a great primer for friday, I’m stoked.
The Pons are raining from the sky etc
“It’s a Riichi for one, All Runs, Twin Runs, and Dora for a 1.5 Mangan.” So, uh . . . What?
So Riichi, All Runs, and Twin runs are Yaku. You need at least one to win. They each give you a certain number of Han. Han acts as a kind of multiplier. They also got 3 Dora, which are bonus tiles: for each Dora you have, you get an additional Han.
So they have 6 Han in total. A Mangan is a specific amount of points you suck from other people if you have 5 Han. Since they had 6 Han, it's 1.5 Mangan instead.
Yeah okay writing this down I understand that probably still makes no sense.
OsthatoAlfakyn Believe it or not, that actually did help me understand a little bit. I’m still pretty confused, but I think I understand what you’re saying.
@@ZestyG1991 if you read the Japanese name and look for a list of yaku, it will make more sense.
Richi, all runs, twin runs, one dora
Richi, pinfu, iipeikou, dora yichi
holy shit, i think im finally starting to understand this game. its like seeing the matrix numbers float on down.
I'm Ponned out of my gourd
This is like if Ryan was in the final of the British Columbia under-14s chess tournament and Magnus Carlsen walked in and sat across the table.
To be clear, Kate is Magnus Carlsen in this situation.
And Dan is someone that just read the rules to riichi
Magnus can't play in my locals -- it's more like losing to Mark Bluvshtein
@@Northernlion more like Yuri Slovojhick, am I right?
@@WickedAwesomeEric This was Dan's first Riichi game and he did infact not read the rules before
As someone who learned riichi mahjong as a 'minigame' in Yakuza, it brings me no end of joy to see content of this wonderful maelstrom of a game.
I have no idea what is going on....But I'm pogged out of my mind.
I'm amazed that this video is 34 minutes long and I was learning new rules for Riichi Mahjong from start to finish nonstop
"Daniel discarded north and it makes me hard" uh, excuse me sir. That's a tad inappropriate lol
Excuse me?
little brother
At 28:00 I’m kinda sad that I was deprived of Ryan realising the iipekou (twin runs) is only a Yaku when the hand is closed and he wouldn’t of been able to win :(
I was looking for this comment. Very disappointed we didn't see him getting his dreams crushed :D
NL fishing for tiles that have already been thrown hurt the expert in me that learned about this game 25 minutes ago
In E-2, I was so mad that NL didn't realize he was so close to 7 pairs and threw it away with a pon and then discarding his 1's.
Also NL, East is always the dealer, no matter what wind the round is.
how could you possibly even keep up with this game
@@ImEverythingYouCrave It's pretty fun, although it does take a while to commit the yakus to memory and the general game strategy, but it's a pretty unique combination of luck and skill
@@ImEverythingYouCrave You really just have to learn the yaku, then it's pretty easy to follow along.
7 Pairs is a trap. It's the feeling when you think you can get your trash hand to actually be worth something but that final single-tile wait is hell.
@@RockiesSweden also, for how difficult it is to get, it gives a piddly amount of points
I was literally just searching for this before you uploaded. I'd love to see you and Kate play this
check out her youtube channel!
that 7 pairs setup he just dropped! I'm seething here.
Dan's series has been really enjoyable, so I'm glad you decided to upload this as supplemental viewing 😏
this is me pleading the case for more riichii mahjong videos, absolute raw electric content- my eyes were glued to the video the whole time trying to find the mangan plays
OMG he actually did it also wait kate sniped it too?! POGGERS
Aww, man. You were so close to getting the 7 Pairs yaku in both the second and third hand! Good games all around and I’m loving this.
Mahjong is complicated as heck but I’d totally watch a “Northerlion vs Mahjong” game-of-the-day series a la Monster Train or Gungeon. And you could teach viewers new concepts each episode too
Yeah the missed 7 pairs and pon-ing the white dragon instead of staying closed and using both dora made me a little sad.
But NL has gotten really good really fast honestly. And Riichi is hard as fuck to learn
Thiiis. It's like the one thing his gameplan was missing
I swear I'm living in some crazy alternate timeline; never in my wildest dreams would I expect riichi mahjong to suddenly gain a lot of traction. Having said that, I am pogged out of my gourd right now
Hell yes more mahjong! This was the best explanation of the game I've had so far!
Just be careful. I bunch of the details he says are wrong. But it's still a good introduction.
I've never heard someone call the character and dot suits "red" and "tires"
This was very nice to watch! Spend some time learning the basics on Yakuza Kiwami (great game btw) a few days earlier, allowing for me to follow NL's tips and tricks, which are very interesting
I can't believe they're doing this one. I love riichi mahjong, so this one will be extra painful for me.
wrong
I'm surprised how much I cringed from a single tonpuusen lol. Excited that they're into riichi, though, it's hard to find anyone who plays it in the west.
@@Northernlion I'm happy to have been wrong. You did aight.
@@ShadowMark474 You can try finding clubs on riichiout.com, we keep track of (most of the) clubs in the western hemisphere there, mostly US, Canada, Latin America and Europe.
Ah dude I was there on Dan's stream for this! An absolutely hilarious experience on Dan's end.
Pumped to see your first Mahjong content on YT. Just a headsup for anyone wondering, Mahjong Soul is also playable on PC via browser, so it's not mobile only.
Dude I am pogged out of my gourd without even knowing what's going on.
I didn't know I needed this so much. Now I'm hunting down K8s vods so I can listen to her lose her mind over "tires" and "tamago"
I've been waiting for you to upload some mahjong, still don't fully understand it, but I enjoyed it when you streamed it. Hope you upload some more
Loved this video. Bought a Mahjong set last year. Only had a few opportunities to play it but love the idea of the game. Would love to see more at some point! Just spent the last three hours watching Kate's latest VOD and can't get enough.
This was extremely entertaining, wouldn’t mind seeing more!
I learned how to play Riichi Mahjong through Akagi: Yami ni Oritatta Tensai many years ago. I am still hooked to the game, even though I can't find people around me who are interested in playing it with me. So I stick to virtual options.
But it makes me so endlessly happy to see my favourite TH-cam eggs play it together with his wife.
That must have been my favourite video of yours since the first episode of Rebirth.
BTW: Some comments from people who have no idea how the game works are just so hilarious and make me think of the time when I started with the game. I was all like "Huh...? What...? Why does he score 1,5 times the points I do with the same hand???"
I could not understand even one moment of this game. Loved it!
I would definitely watch more videos of this. It is just fascinating. Also I think I'm starting to get it. Thanks nl!
It's nice to see real Mahjong for once instead of those "Solitaire masquerading as Mahjong" games for a change.
Listening to him talk about Mahjong feels like listening to an incantation from a long forgotten language.
Never thought there is a day I'd see Northernlion playing Riichi Mahjong. Great stuff.
YES! Mahjong content. You playing Mahjong on stream got me into the game, now I play MahjongSoul on the reg. Also binged a Mahjong thriller anime called Akagi. This game is the dopeness.
The sand in the depths of hell is magical sand!
Took your advice and am loving Mahjong soul.
I enjoyed this, please make more
Riichi Mahjong series PLEASE. I'm trying to learn and the task is daunting.
Yes. YESSS!! I've been waiting for Mahjong!
Yoo didn't expect this video POGGERS
Did I understand this at all? Barely. Did I still love this video? Absolutely. 2020 Year of the Egg!
Please bless us with more Mahjong
i love how in chess theres tech tips like every time something happens. "Pawns capture diagonally :)"
in this game shit is literally in Japanese and the clubhouse devs were like "nah they got this, it's pretty self explanatory"
I learned Riichi Mahjong from this game. You can view scoring hands in the game, however Wikipedia also explains scoring hands quite well. I think Clubhouse Games 51 was worth it for this game alone.
This video sold me on learning riichi mahjong and I downloaded the app immediately after watching this video.
Pogged out of my freaking gourd. I thought there was no more mahjong and then I log on to TH-cam and here it sits in my sub box. Bless us with Chrysler pog, egg father.
I would love more of Mahjong on your channel :)
I just came from Dan's video, this is amazing lmao
NL, seriously, do more of this game. It is so out of left field and I had 0 idea how to play it but now I do and Now I want to see more.
This is one of my favorite games to watch you play
I want to see more of this! I want to see this game played.
Ever since I played mahjong in Yakuza Kiwami, I've been addicted to this game. I hope you do more
I wanna platinum Yakuza 0 so bad and I definitely need to work on my mahjong game
He called the Pins "Tyres".
I'm sold.
No he called them tires
Hey NL love the video. Hope this becomes more frequent (or Mahjong soul).
Watching Dan play this game made me rethink my choices in life.
Watching NL play this game made me actually want to play the game^^
loved it! probably in the minority here, but im hoping for more riichi mahjong on the channel (you were the one who got me into it btw, since i bought clubhouse after seeing your videos on it). so that's 1 extra viewer in the pro-mahjong camp
We need a series!
Love one-off videos to shake things up. Also, thanks for the Mahjong Soul recommendation, couldn't find any riichi majong game on mobile. Just hope no one asks me about it, the anime part would be very hard to explain.
NL if you upload a single additional riichi mahjong video to youtube, I will like, comment, and fully watch every video in the Isaac series
dude I literally read the Kaiji mahjong arc two days before this video was uploaded
that shit wouldve blown my mind if i had seen it
Please for the love of god play more riichi mahjong! It's so much fun!
Northernlion and mahjong? Absolutely blessed
I've been playing a lot of this game on the Switch. I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses "pon" and "ron" as verbs, I like how they sound like "pwn" and "wrong", as in "he (w)ron(g)'d me!"
Thank you for the video! All of you friends are super awesome! Oh, moment of this video are sad.
Why did I enjoy this so much...having no idea what was going on
NL and I seem to be about roughly the same skill level, so this was actually a really fun video for me.
Dont know why I love watching this game so much, but I do
I knew nothing about this game before I got here, now that I'm here, I still know nothing, but I feel confident I could do good with the lovely description of the game from NL
This is so awesome.
I got into mahjong playing the game on the TV screens in a plane to Japan. It took the trip back to really get a hang of it.
Let's go, the hot mahjong content that has been absent from the TH-cam is here!
I have no idea what is happening but this is still highly pogged
This was so entertaining and exciting! Have Apollo join y'all too! That'd be an awesome series!
This is incredible
This vid got me into mahjong, and after 100s of hours of watching + playing quite a bit myself with a mahjong enthusiast friend of mine, coming back to this video to hear "red" and "tires" and "succ" makes me laugh, but in a good way.
I have 2 clips of separate Riichi Mahjong sessions. One clip, I saw a CPU call "Ron!" Off a CPU's Dragon tile, resulting on the 3 Large Dragons Yakuman (and wiping out all 32,000 points from that CPU), and I got another clip of the separate Riichi Mahjong session in which the East Seat CPU called "Ron!" On the South Seat CPU that had the following hand (D is Dora):
5(D)67789P, EEEN(D)N(D)GGG Honor Tiles, which resulted in this score:
Riichi (1)
1-shot (1)
Dragon Tiles (1)
Perfect Winds (2)
½ Flush (3)
Dora (3 as bonus Han)
Which resulted in a full Sanbaiman being calculated as a result and just instantly sent the CPU in the South Seat into the Minus Zone, all in E-1. And this was in Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics. My Mahjong points were intact during those affairs, since it was a CPU-on-CPU beat down.
This is so great. I need to see Dan and Kate's perspective on this.
Heck yeah brother. Mahjong is highly pogged
This man could upload anything and the pogs would maintain their downwards pour
I had no idea what the fresh fuck was happening. Still watched all and liked it!
Brings back good memories, I first played mahjong when I was 7
I have to admit, no idea what's going on, but I love watching it...
I really like NL's Majong videos, they're extremely god
Its impossible to distinguish between when he's genuinely trying to explain the rules of the game and when he's just talking in NLspeak
27:06 I might be missing a yaku here, but if you were going for iipeikou (double sequence), it's closed only. Opening your hand, you no longer had a yaku at this point. It's also not great to call chii on a ryanmen (double sided wait), as those are already pretty good and you want to wait on them when you're tenpai (especially since you can also get pinfu if the hand is closed).
I feel confident in my richii mahjong knowledge after watching this bald canadian explain it to me for half an hour.
