General description:
I am sure most of you dismissed this card as being too frog-oriented or girlish on first sight. Well in this review, I am going to show you that Unifrog can be useful, and used in most of today’s decks, let them be control or aggro.
Uses:
First of all, Unifrog has a medley of two cool effects. He can attack the opponent directly, and afterwards destroy a spell/trap provided you have another frog monster on the field except another Unifrog or Frog the King(does konami hate McDonalds?!) Well there’s a difference between frogs and toads, so no substitutoad either.
Strategies and game play:
Unifrog can act both as a spell/trap remover and a serious direct attacker. It’s attack can be increased by a large amount of equips and such like, but we are a bit scarce on the frog side. The monsters that should be present on the field are Poison Draw Frog, Beelze Frog, Des Frog and Treeborn Frog or else you’ll just have an ordinary direct attacker.
Combos with other cards:
Unifrog is a strange card. Despite its effect, it’s still very versatile and combos with a large amount of cards which, each gives him a different use. Here are some of them:
Wetlands
The most obvious of all! Wetlands turns Unifrog into a direct attacked boasting 1700 Atk!!! This combo on its own will allow to win against defensive decks in no more than 5 turns.
Level Limit Area B and Gravity Bind
Being a level 2, Unifrog can attack over these two stalling cards. Whether it’s you or your opponent using it, it’ll always be to your advantage. You can combine Unifrog with a couple of attack-increasing cards to seal your opponent’s fate quicker but the point is that it’ll simply not stop you.
Bamboo sword series
Unifrog is a good card to use along with the Bamboo Sword cards. True, it’ll not be like Dark Scorpion - Chick the Yellow, but you can use it with cards like Feather of the Phoenix or DMoC for more efficiency. This will turn the cute little frog into the much feared Yata Garasu!!
Robbin’ Goblin/Zombie
While you’re dealing battle damage on a regular basis, why not abuse it with these cards? It’ll then be like a direct attacking Don Zaloog or a Gorg the Strong, without having to use the Dark Scorpions altogether!!!
Heart Of Clear Water
Here’s the best way to protect your froggie while doing your shenanigans!! Heart of Clear water will protect Unifrog form battle destruction and targeting effects, making him indestructible in some way!!!
United We Stand/Mage power
Just like wetlands, these cards increase attack points drastically, so they are the ideal ones to use if you want to deal massive amounts of damage.
Treborn Frog
Here’s the ideal companion for Unifrog. Treeborn frog is like an ever present parasite that will enable you to use the backrow destruction effect. Also, since Treeborn Frog is still run in many decks, namely Monarchs, this will allow you to run Unifrogs in these types of decks. So it’s not restricted to only frog based decks, is it?
Spiritual Water Art-Aoi
Under the threat of losing his trap card, your opponrent will sometimes prefer to activate it than lose it uselessly. So a well placed SWA-A can make despairingly activated Sakuretsu Armor/Dimensional Proison useless, while robbing the opponent of a hand card at the same time. Situational, but good.
Ways to counteract it:
Unifrog has no build in protecting, so all monster removal will work against him. If you want to inhibit the spell/trap destruction effect, just destroy his fellow frog and next turn you can destroy the violent frog himself!
Strengths/Pros:
-Frog the King is useless anyway, good thing it’s not Treeborn Frog in its place!!
-Doesn’t need a frog to attack directly
-It’s a level 2 monster
Weaknesses/Cons:
-Low attack and defence
-Needs to have another Frog on the field for spell/trap destruction
Variations:
It's available as a common in the Light Of Destruction booster pack. It's good since it's easily obtainable, but then, it's worth more than a common 
Artwork and aesthetics:
Despite its girlish appearance, the artwork is definitely good, and I have to give credit where it’s due. But then, it’s a frog, not a toad, so we couldn’t have expected a gruesome horned monster!!
Overall rating:
This card gets a 7/10 from me, and that’s only because it needs another frog on the field, or otherwise it would have been a 9!! Hope you enjoyed reading this!! Now I’m waiting to see splashed Unifrogs in every decks!!
