Triple Height 170 or TH170 is a Spin Track released by Takara Tomy. It debuted in Japan with the release of the BB-109 Random Booster Vol. 7 Beat Lynx on April 23rd, 2011.
Description[]
Triple Height 170 (TH170) contains a height-changing Track similar to CH120; it can change between 170, 195, and 220. Unlike CH120, TH170 has no mechanical problems that cause it to change height mid-battle, like many CH120's do. However, it has a durability issue in that it is somewhat easy to break because of the height changing mechanism. In particular an inexperienced user can accidentally break it attempting to change its height. It can also break mid-battle if configured improperly.
TH170 is infinitely more versatile than 230 because of its height change ability. While 230 is easily KOed by 145-height Attack customizations due to its height, TH170 can stand up against them if necessary with the two lower heights it can change down to: 170 and 195. And it can also fare well against low-Track Attack customizations just as well as 230 can when used at the 220-height. Although, it should be noted that due to the height change mechanism of the Track, the design of TH170 is not as funnel-like and smooth as 230's is. As a result, low-Track Attackers could possibly garner more success against TH170 at the 220-height than they would against 230; this is also part of its durability issue. This is simply one minor caveat though; TH170's outstanding ability to adapt to countless situations more than makes up for it.
In general, the 170 and 195 heights are best used against 145-height Attack and Stamina combinations, while the 220 height is best used for outspinning 230-height Stamina customs, as well as low-track Attack, Defense, and Stamina combinations.
Use in Defense Combination[]
On the 170 and 195-heights, TH170 can be difficult to KO for many Attackers. To optimize this ability, combine it with the following parts: MF-H, Twisted, Aquario, and Rubber Defense Flat (RDF) to create the formidable defensive opponent, MF-H Basalt Aquario TH170RDF.
Use in Stamina Customization[]
TH170 is one of the most popular choices for Stamina customizations due to its extremely high versatility. It can be used well in the combination, Phantom Cancer/Cygnus TH170D.
Use in Balance Combination[]
TH170 is a key part in the combination MF/MF-H Basalt Kerbecs TH170WF. This combination succeeds by utilizing its great momentum and versatility to perform well against all types of opponents.
