# Skills (mahjong hands)

Every mahjong hand used as a skill, with its effect, han value and owners.

<https://mahjongmonsters.games.pocosoft.jp/guide/en/yaku.html>

Skills are named after **mahjong hands**, and **the rank of the hand tracks the rarity**: common and uncommon use standalone 2-han hands, rare uses 3-han to mangan, epic uses yakuman, and legendary uses double and compound yakuman. **The skill name tells you the tier (rare and above).** Common and uncommon share the same 2-han hands, so those two cannot be told apart by name.

**The effect comes from what the hand means.** Dragon-tile, heavenly and concealed-triplet hands deal damage; Nine Gates and Seven Pairs heal; terminal hands raise guard; wind hands and All Terminals and Honours slow the gauge; flush and run hands raise attack; Thirteen Orphans and the double-run hands reshape the board.

The size and duration come from the rarity, so the same hand gets stronger as the rarity climbs.
