This is a collection-limited Spider deck built around web-slinging and repeated
enter-the-battlefield abilities. It is intended for casual games rather than
tournament Standard. It shares no nonbasic cards with
[Rakdos Mayhem](../spm-rakdos-mayhem/README.md), so both proposals can be
assembled at the same time.

## Game plan

1. Develop Skyward Spider, Gallant Citizen, Radioactive Spider or
   Spider-Girl during the first two turns.
2. Attack with a creature that can safely be returned, then use it to pay a
   web-slinging cost. Gallant Citizen draws again when replayed; Skyward Spider
   gains flying once modified; Spider-Girl leaves a Citizen token.
3. Build a wider and larger board with Silk, Spider-UK and Spider-Man India.
   Use Origin of Spider-Man to win a key combat.
4. Clear blockers with Web Up, Kapow!, Sudden Strike or Spectacular Tactics,
   preserving creatures when the protection mode is more valuable than removal.
   Web Up x4 and Sudden Strike x2 replaced Thwip! x2, Daily Bugle Reporters and
   one each of Aunt May, Origin of Spider-Man and Skyward Spider.

## Opening hands

Keep two or three lands with both colors, at least one play costing one or two
mana, and either a web-slinger or interaction. Gallant Citizen is the best card
to pair with a web-slinger because returning and replaying it replaces itself.
Avoid hands whose first creature costs three mana or whose lands provide only
one color.

## Important interactions

- Returning a tapped creature is part of paying a web-slinging cost. Opponents
  cannot remove that creature after it has been returned to make the spell cost
  more.
- A creature may attack, become tapped and then be returned for web-slinging
  after combat. It does not need to deal combat damage first.
- Spider-UK checks how many creatures entered during the entire turn. Casting a
  web-slinger and replaying the returned creature is enough to satisfy it.
- Skyward Spider has ward {2} and gains flying while modified — an Aura, Equipment
  or counter enables it. Mary Jane Watson
  draws only once each turn, even if several Spiders enter together.
- Spider-Man India triggers when a creature spell is cast, before that spell
  resolves. The target already on the battlefield receives the counter and
  flying.
- Origin of Spider-Man makes its chosen creature a legendary Spider Hero for
  the rest of the game, not only until the Saga leaves the battlefield.

## List conventions

The CSV uses the same 24 columns, in the same order, as the collection's precon
exports. Nonbasic metadata comes from
[the Spider-Man opening](<../../../booster-pulls/Marvel's%20Spider-Man%20(SPM)/cards.csv>).
Selected copies never exceed recorded quantities or the four-copy limit.
Regular copies are preferred when available; Silk, Web Weaver uses one regular
and one recorded foil. Prices come from the export, not a fresh market quote,
and `Value_USD` is recalculated for the selected copies.

Enough basic lands are assumed available. Their quantities use
`Quantity_Regular` as a planning convention, not a verified finish. Printing,
condition, price and image fields remain blank. There is no sideboard.
