South Wind
Discard South Wind · 1 step from ready, safe vs North
The safest tile against North, who looks ready.
Sifu's reasoning
With North looking ready (an exposed set, a middle tile thrown right after a call), the South Wind you just drew is the safest tile that keeps your pace: 3 of the 4 copies are already in sight. It keeps you 1 step from ready with 12 useful tiles. Many players would throw the 8 Characters from your 6-7-8 Characters run, but it leaves you 2 steps from ready instead of 1. When someone looks ready, pick the safest tile that keeps your pace.
