The pregen Encounters Battlemind has a feature that lets him shift after a marked target if they try to shift away from him. Is that standard, or is it a feat? EDIT: Ah! It must be Harrying Step!
After the enemy's support was cleared away, we ended up using Mind Spike to turn my guy into a sort of anti-tank. The Warlock ran right up to my mark and Eldritch Blasted him, and he finished himself off with the opportunity attack she ate in return.
