No, Unholy in this patch takes all the wins. With Unholy u can do both at a great level while Frost needs to focus on only one. And even if he focuses on 1 specific thing he still gets outshined by Unholy. So stick with Unholy.

With good itemization and the right legendaries, Frost can outperform Unholy on large AoE pulls, but in single target and generally overall situations, Unholy wins in all cases, assuming equal player skill and gear level.

It depends on player skill, my frost 891 dk is always higher in dps when in group with same ilvl dk because basically uh players mostly don't know how to use full potential of their spec, and knowledge about rotation

An oversimplification, but one that more than accurately answers the question; Unholy is generally BETTER than frost. But also *** and less fun. I play Frost because it's not that much weaker, especially if you know what you're doing. It gets tricky at some bosses to maintain a good breath due to the mechanics/script, and that can reduce your dps output massively, but generally speaking Frost has pretty good dps in most scenarios.

It's a matter of personal preference. I personally don't like Legion's approach to the Unholy spec and prefer to play Frost - the first expansion since DKs were introduced in which I actually like Frost.
