    Berserker Lancelot isn't.
    He's mentioned to be like a vengeful ghost, like how Medusa was described or something along those lines.

    A Servant. That was plain. Yet, just what Heroic Spirit was this sinister appearance?

    This black knight definitely didn't have any of the "radiance" that bore the other Servants who were already there. Arturia, Diarmuid, and the King of Conquerors Alexander as well as the yet unannounced golden Archer all have that "shine". This is the expression of the pride of a Heroic Spirit. The honor of the legends everyone praises and longs for. This is an essential element of their "noble phantasm".

    But the newly appeared black knight had none of it. You could say he was closer to an Assassin. The darkness around the black armor definitely held a "negative surge".

    Thus, more than a Heroic Spirit, he might be labelled a vengeful spirit instead...
    here it is.

    I'm not certain if it's related, but didn't he mention come into contact with the corruption in the grail or something along those lines?

    Easily. Manaka says that not even the three Knight Classes combined can take him.

    Like, Ramesses' Sphinx alone is as strong as three Servants.

    There are heroes who were very angry while being heroes. And also various people like Spartacus.

    Lancelot as a Berserker isn't heroic anymore because he's lost in his despair.

    Good thing Arthur is worth 4 or more Servants then. How much do you think Archer and Lancer are worth?

    So if you are a legit hero but are not heroic as a berserker, as in, you are moved by other emotions besides primal rage, you need Avenger to play overseer? What?

    Before Avenger, the Fuyuki Grail only summons proper 'heroes' (Hassan aside). It doesn't have anything to do with Berserker in particuliar.

    People who were driven into insanity and became not-heroes like Gilles or Lancelot aren't proper heroes anymore and wouldn't be summoned.

    Now it'd be interesting to know what exactly makes them not-heroes as Berserker when they could normaly be summoned as other classes.
    Also whether this also works to "exclude" other classes for certain heroes
    Aus Feuer ward der Geist geschaffen,
    drum schenkt mir süßes Feuer ein!
    Die Lust der Lieder und der Waffen,
    die Lust der Liebe schenkt mir ein,

    different classes means different parts of your anecdote get shoved in.
    That's why there's classes in the first place, so you don't have to shove the entire heroic spirit info in there.
    And yes, it does.

    As a Berserker, Lancelot is a man who fell into despair and was driven to madness by guilt, therefore not a hero.

    As a Caster, Gilles is someone who fell into madness and depravity and summons demons, obviously not a hero.
