I firmly believe WoI and Hunter are NOT comparable. Check out a bunch of random decklists on the forum- even NBN choose to drop Hunters and pay the influence for WoI, and they have at least as much to gain from tags as Weyland. With that said: it is quite possible that I am completely mistaken. I would love to meet one day and get crushed by a loose Hunter. Currently, I believe it is a situational card, and definitely inferior to Shadow.
A constructed Weyland deck is a subject of the thread, and that is all I was discussing. In Weyland decks, I like to throw in a couple of zero-influence Hunters. In Weyland decks, I think a couple of Hunters are good. That isn't a statement of qualitative superiority over any other card, such as Ice Wall or Shadow. As it happens, I think both Ice Wall and Shadow are better and more versatile cards than Hunters. There are only so many cards in the core set, though, corporations benefit from ice, and Weyland benefits from tagging runners.
