Dealing with Mind Hunt

[Micah]

decoy commanders are nice too...trading a 30g commander for 2 of your opponent's pearls isn't a horrid deal.

And the strength of the casting mage doesn't matter, supposedly defending mages have a 40% chance per level of catching an attacker, so it doesn't take much...I also can't recall having a mind hunt kill anyone where I have an S mage stationed, so the actual chance might be better.

I am regarding the lack of +MR items on one of those victim armies as a bit of a bonus, it has to be said.
