Cool budget deck, but there's some tweaking that needs to be done.

First: You'll never be able to activate Delirium with this build. Here's some budget stuff that helps: (LANDS) Evolving Wilds, Terramorphic Expanse, Blighted Fen, Blighted Woodland, Buried Ruin (see next category), Grim Backwoods, Memorial to Folly, Memorial to Unity, Sequestered Stash; (ARTIFACTS) Golgari Cluestone, Golgari Locket, Commander's Sphere, Hedron Archive, Wayfarer's Bauble, Burnished Hart, Executioner's Capsule, Nihil Spellbomb, Sylvok Replica, Unstable Obelisk, Voyager Staff (blink Ishkanah!); (ENCHANTMENTS) Crop Sigil, Durable Handicraft, Font of Fertility, Seal of Doom, Seal of Primordium, Vessel of Nascency, The Eldest Reborn, Archetype of Finality; (TRIBAL - yes, it's a seperate card type for Delirium) Eyeblight's Ending, Rootgrapple, Warren Weirding; (PLANESWALKERS) Nissa, Vital Force, Ob Nixilis Reignited, Vraska the Unseen

Just choose three to five of each category, take those which you like most, which you already own or which you can get your hands on easily.

Second: There are some cheap dual colored lands that you could use as well: Golgari Guildgate, Foul Orchard, Golgari Rot Farm, Hissing Quagmire (maybe), Jungle Hollow, Tainted Wood; Llanowar Wastes, Woodland Cemetery, and Temple of Malady aren't dirt cheap, but still quite budget friendly. A good utility land could also be Svogthos, the Restless Tomb.

Third: Cut Spidery Grasp. It seems on theme, but all your spiders have reach anyway, so it's completely useless and basically off-theme.

I've tried a spider build in the past, and one thing I've found is they tend to want a few non-spider fatties (most high-cost spiders are rather lackluster). Changeling Titan, Chameleon Colossus and thier ilk are probably the best choices. Metallic Mimic, Brass Herald and Adaptive Automaton also wouldn't go astray, spiders not having many lords. A few common EDH sights are missing: Beastmaster Acension, Life's Finale (and other black wraths), Sol Ring and co. etc. Other than that, I recommend Swarmyard as a great land for this tribe, and it's nice to see spider tribal show up every now and again; they are one of the most underappreciated types out there. The deck still looks fun to play as-is too.

Unless I'm mistaken you can only play colors that are the same as your commander and because your Ishkanah, Grafwidow is just a green, you can't play any of your black spells.

@ SureSong: "Unless I'm mistaken you can only play colors that are the same as your commander and because your Ishkanah, Grafwidow is just a green, you can't play any of your black spells."
A commander's colour identity includes any mana symbols that appear in the card's text box in addition to its normal colour(s); since Ishkanah has an acitvated ability that costs black mana, it is allowed to run black cards
