Considering buying a numbered Riichi set so I can maybe teach people in my college town to play: Question about the AMOS Numbers set, and recommendations?

I've been an on-again off-again Riichi player since I watched Akagi back when I was a teen. Been getting back into it on Mahjong Soul lately, started reading some books for more advanced strategy, feels like a hyperfixation is coming on.

I was thinking about getting a physical set so I could maybe teach some people in town or even start a club through the University I work at. I had two questions:

  1. I'm pretty new to physical Mahjong sets. Can anyone explain why the AMOS Numbers set has 4 red Pins, and 2 reds of Sou and Man? I thought it was one red in each suit?

  2. Any recommendations for a decent numbered set, specifically Riichi if possible or if not then a variant that would play well with the ruleset?

With the Akagi rerun finally happening... Quickest surefire way to acquire Akagi?

I've never really gotten into unlocking characters, or any of the unlocks really. But I have been waiting for this collab to do a rerun for years, Akagi was what got me into mahjong to start with.

Taking into account both spending actual money, and the free route, what are the best guaranteed ways to acquire Akagi?

Upgrading from a 5700 XT to a 9060 XT: Will my CPU be the bottleneck? Good cheap upgrade?

I'm hoping to upgrade from my 5700 XT to a 9060 XT on Prime Day or sometime this year, if I can catch a sale.

I'm worried my Ryzen 5 3060 is going to end up being a new bottleneck at 1440p?

If so, what would be a good cheap Ryzen CPU to upgrade to on a budget?
