Using spiders (spids) in a base game is required. Without atleast 3 spids your team probably won't hold base very long.
Strategies:Alot of spiders worry about their recs (kills to deaths ratio). Many times this results in very defensive spids and campers (players that sit in one spot and shoot). Both of these results can deminish the teams chance of winning. A spider needs to be willing to die. Of course going on suicide missions every life is not a good idea; however, an agressive spid can be the determining factor of winning or loosing.
When attacking the flag room (fr) push with the sharks and use them as your shield. Also, try to kill the enemy sharks prematurely (when they still have reps); this will allow your team to more easily penetrate the enemy defense or allow your javelin (if you have one) to bomb the entrance. If the enemy team has a javelin (jav) that likes to shoot through the holes in lower entrance kill it sooner than later.
