Card Tips:Treeborn Frog
- This card can be searched by "Substitoad", "Toadally Awesome", "Dupe Frog", "Mother Grizzly", "Ice Mirror", "Mermail Abyssalacia", "Deep Sea Prima Donna", "Eria the Water Charmer, Gentle", "Flying Red Carp", "Underworld Egg Clutch", "Shark Cruiser", "One for One", "Jack-In-The-Hand", "Where Arf Thou?", "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing", "Packet Link", "Small Scuffle", "Mimiclay", "Serpentine Princess", "Battle Royal Mode - Joining", "Vampire Dragon", "Rescue Ferret", "Umbramirage the Elemental Lord", "Sangan", "Witch of the Black Forest", and other generic searchers.
- Send this card directly from the Deck to the Graveyard with "Swap Frog" or "Foolish Burial" to prepare a counter for the next turn.
- This card works well with "Spiritual Water Art - Aoi", the second effect of "Enemy Controller", and single-Tribute monsters like the "Monarchs". All of these allow for great potential at gaining card advantage.
- Sometimes it is best to discard "Treeborn Frog" instead of setting it, because there is a chance the opponent will use "Nobleman of Crossout" on it. This will banish "Treeborn Frog", most likely making it useless for the remainder of the Duel.
- This card can be brought out immediately after its been drawn with "Hand Destruction", even on your first turn.
- This card works well in the same Deck as "Gorz the Emissary of Darkness", "Denko Sekka" and "Jinzo" (if any Traps aren't used).
- This card is ideal to use in a "Monarch Control" Deck.
- This card works well with "Raging Eria".
- This card can be used to weaken "Light and Darkness Dragon". Continuously try to Special Summon it, and each time it fails, "Light and Darkness Dragon" loses 500 ATK.
- This card can be used as easy Tribute for "Infernal Dragon", since "Infernal Dragon" will destroy it and revive itself, and "Treeborn" will revive on your next turn.
- Use together with "Ronintoadin" to create a wave of Special Summons each turn. In certain situations, a "Dupe Frog" may protect those monsters and there will be a flexible advantage.
- This card can help you "Synchro Summon" low Level Synchro Monsters easily and still have your "Treeborn Frog" next turn.
- Provide a fodder for "Yubel".
- When using this card's effect, there needs to be no Spell or Trap Cards on your field. This normally limits the Trap Cards that a player would have in their Deck, however consider using Traps that have a Maintenance Cost such as "Fairy Box" or "Mirror Wall". Just do not pay their cost and they are removed, so that this card can be Special Summoned.
Traditional Format[edit]
- This card can be searched by "Last Will".
- This card, obviously, belongs in a "Frog" Deck. This card can be discarded for "One for One" to Special Summon "Substitoad", and then Normal Summon a monster and Tribute it for "Dupe Frog" for an instant lock. "Treeborn Frog" can be Special Summoned during your next Standby Phase if there is no Spells or Traps on your field. Then "Treeborn Frog" may be offered again.
