Note that Physalias will not be cremated unless they are lobotomized. That's right, unless the opponent has an early lobotomizer, Lancelot has 22 dead cards in his deck. Also note that the AI will continue to improve
The problem here isn't the lack of Cremating the Physalias -- though that does instantly cripple this deck. The problem with Lancealot is that the AI will happily waste bolt after bolt on enemy creatures, leaving you with only the small and utterly unprotected Physalia to do all of the hard kill-work for you -- and they only have the Mark to power them, so the majority will be sitting around uselessly. Lancealot is -- forgive my arrogant assumption -- garnering votes because people know it will be trivial to beat, and yet it has excellent rewards (3x6 cards = best spins of any FG thus far.)
Lancealot is basically a very clever variation on Farmer Joe that looks dangerous...but isn't.
In many ways, Mimic is in the same boat. 3x6 cards -- with no extras, so it's actually even better odds than Lancealot -- and exactly nothing that it can do to your plans except slowly imitate them and possibly Mutate an unprotected creature. It's basically a fun-to-play biting farm deck.
But which "enemy creatures" are the bolts wasted on? In the most popular FG grinders, there is no massive spam of high-attack creatures early in the game, and so bolts will not be used on creatures.
You seem to be underestimating Physalias. The majority will not be "sitting around uselessly," they will be doing 2 damage per turn. In addition, from my playtesting with chriskang's fg cradle, Lancelot usually has more than enough
to power all the Physalias on the field (usually 4). And with just Physalias, he can kill in 4 turns. You will not be able to kill Lancelot without killing or lobo'ing his Physalias.
So Lancelot really does not need 12 Ice Lances to kill the enemy, it has enough to spare as mindless CC. Yet the thing is that this deck is supposed to be a soft counter to the popular FG-killers of the time, and there would be no mindless CC being used in the first place against popular FG-killers of the time.
Lancelot
is dangerous.
