Forum:Lava golem - is my understanding right?

I can understand that putting Lava Golem onto your opponents side causes them to lose 1000 life each turn, which is pretty harsh. But aren't you also giving them control of a lvl 8 monster with 3000 atk, with which they could kick your own ass? If that's right, isn't Lava Golem not such a good strategy to play? 86.163.131.238 (talk) 08:17, November 7, 2010 (UTC)Adackbar1972
