I put up a list like this a long time ago as a proof of concept--I don't
think it's necessarily bad, lots of high toughness things is annoying.
That said, I don't know if you can kill things reliably, especially
mech, with the Spyders. Lots of getting focus fired away is I think the
future for this list. Sorry. It's too much gimmick, not enough
performance.
