You don't have to sacrifice a totem shield. You can instead just send an astrologer with a totem shield to curse, horror mark, and then mind-burn him a few times before casting Returning.

That's true... but still not very effective:
If 10 players are attending the death match the chances of getting the winner are 20%... I would rather have the mage researching.

I don't know of any human players which would send their pretender... maybe a newbie .
