Why the obsession for tairao? At 7g he's pretty mediocre. I'd drop 1 for the 3rd copy of taruko.

What's the purpose of kumite grounds? I don't currently see enough kharmic to justify it.

Drop Glimpse, if youre desperate for card draw put in daigotsu teruo.

Famous bazaar is the best holding in strict, I don't see it in your deck.

Personally I think the deck looks too expensive and a little light on strategies that are proactive.

Tairao is a shugenja and his ability is awesome makes opponents think about how they defend. Unfortunately i cant run Terou because he is a samurai and thus he is 7g to just blow up for cards, glimpse seems like a better option right now but it needs a bit more testing. 
Kumite grounds should of actually been expansive range. forgot to change that. Famous bazaar should be in there cant believe I forgot that. 
Gold scheme is an average of 18-21g by turn 3 so i don't run in to too many problems. sometimes i get a bit boned on proactive battle actions, so far i have relied on the spells and weapons to do the dirty work. I think my worst match up are decks that do send home, I only have ring of earth and 3 Back to the front. Any ideas on proactive action?

3 relentless and 2 servitors of stone seems a bit redundant and so does 9 8g weapons. That's 4-5 spots you can cut  to get non-telegraphed actions like wrath of osono-wo or whatever else you might want to run.

Jason, first off I am so glad to welcome you to the Spider Clan! Using ONI and now Spider personalities! You have grown very accepting of Shibatsu! 

Beyond that, I think you have too many attachments going, and a few of them are doozies in gold cost. You can use much less expensive weaponry and have greater effect effect with battle actions. Wrath of Osa and Redirecting Rage are good kill cards.

The weapons were more for force than actions. Though the blade is freaking boss. Also I found having more expensive weapons means my opponent has to use more gold to blow them up (stupid your true nature). In regards to spider and oni they just seem to work though I am leaning more towards the conqueror geisha and perhaps dainoko. Obviously I need to play a game physically not just on untap and on the companion to get a better idea of how the deck works.

Jason, I cared SO much about my reply to your crab deck that I made my own post about it.
