Origins
Maizpider is based on a Corn (Zea mays), a cereal grain first domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago, and on a Spider (Araneae order) an air-breathing arthropod that has eight legs and chelicerae with fangs that inject venom.

Card Description
"Its poison is completely made from Corn Smudge."

With
Maizpider is very good at strategies that involve heavy use of Environments, being able to give huge advantages to Cosmoss. It is also able to give more safety to cards like Invasive Species, if those are being boosted by Zombie Environments.

It also is useful to counter those Environment strategies, being able to ruin such strategies. To make a max use of it, try to boost its Strength and play it with Umbrella Leaf, as the Cobwebs will already provide health boosts to it. Bouncing it may remve the boosts, but is also a quick way of reusing it.

Against
While having a troublesome ability, Maizpider can be easily dispatched with Rolling Stone and countered with the quick use of Pillaged Land. Also, try to avoid bouncing it, as it will allow it to trigger the ability again.

The Maizpiders created by Cobwebs can be countered in a variety of ways, being easily dispatched by Supernova Gargantuar, Alien Ooze and Extinction Event.

Trivia

 * It is the second Animal Plant on the Solar class, the first being Aloesaurus.
