Revision as of 07:42, 4 May 2011
- This card can be searched via "Sangan", "Last Will" and "Mother Grizzly".
- Use this card with "Scapegoat" to summon up to 5 Frog monsters from your deck ("Substitoad" can be Tributed for its own effect).
- An alternative to the above strategy, is using "Grinder Golem" as a re-useable token generator. Special Summon "Grinder Golem" in defense. If you have any "Flip Flop Frog" on the field, activate its effect to flip face-down, then Flip Summon it to return "Grinder Golem" back to your hand. Repeat as needed. (Since summoning the two tokens is not optional, this will probably only be used once per turn unless you use "Mass Driver" or "Cannon Soldier".)
- Use this effect to summon "Treeborn Frog"; then, activate the effect again, so you will have "Treeborn Frog" in your Graveyard to Special Summon it to summon more Frog monsters.
- This card can very easily summon "Des Frog".
- Create an OTK by constantly summoning Frogs from the deck,in combination with "Witch Doctor of Sparta" (3x), "Pot of Avarice" (2x), and maybe "Exodius, the Ultimate Forbidden Lord".
- When using "Substitoad", as long as you have a "Dupe Frog" on the field, your opponents will not be able to destroy either of them by battle, thanks to "Dupe Frog"'s effect. If you leave "Dupe Frog" in Defense Position, then your opponents can't touch your Life Points through battle. Using this strategy, team it up with "Unifrog"s to constantly attack your opponent without worry of them being attacked themselves.
- This is very useful when used with "Shield and Sword".
- In Frog Monarchs variants, Normal Summon this card, tribute for its own effect, and then Special Summon a "Swap Frog" to dump a "Treeborn Frog" to the Graveyard.
- Be careful when making some plays, as this card is not a Frog. This means some cards such as "Froggy Forcefield" will not work with "Substitoad". Also, if you have this card and another "Dupe Frog", there is still danger if your opponent has a Piercing effect like "Blackwing - Bora the Spear". Use this card to Special Summon two Dupe Frogs (tributing this card if necessary) for extra safety.
- Use this card with "One for One" to Special Summon "Substitoad". Normal summon another monster to the field and use "Substitoad"'s effect to search out "Dupe Frog", then your opponent can't touch your Life Points.
- If you have another monster on your side of the field, you can also summon this card and tribute said other monster and this card to summon two "Dupe Frog", to make your opponent unable to attack at all.
- Use "Swap Frog" to quickly put this card into the Graveyard to be easily put into the hand using "Salvage" or revived using "Call of the Haunted" or "Graceful Revival".
- Special Summon this with "Kinka-Byo" then activate "Substitoad"'s effect by tributing itself. Because "Kinka-Byo" returns to the hand during your End Phase, you can potentially do this once every turn.
- If you have "Pot of Avarice" you can get an easy 2 card draw by repeatedly tributing the same monster until you have at least 5 monsters in the Graveyard, then use "Pot of Avarice" to return them to the deck and draw 2 cards.
- If "Substitoad" is on the field and "Fishborg Blaster" is in your graveyard, you can discard cards from your hand to Special Summon "Fishborg Blaster", and immediately substitute him for a frog monster from your deck. This sends him back into the graveyard, allowing you to repeat the process. You can use this to facilitate the use of "Des Croaking", or perform a "Wetlands" OTK by swarming the field.
- An easier way would be to send "Ronintoadin" to the Graveyard (e.g. with "Swap Frog" - also searchable with "Substitoad"), then remove from play any Frog to summon "Ronintoadin". You can then tribute "Ronintoadin" to summon any Frog you don't need, then tribute that to summon what you do, e.g. "Unifrog". Remove from play the Frog you didn't need to summon "Ronintoadin" and repeat to flood your field with Frogs.
- Use "Soul Exchange" to tribute your opponent's monster instead of your own then you get to run through the engine as soon as your first turn without having to tribute "Substitoad" for his own cost or do any extra special summoning.
