Is the advancement to stage 3 still random, or can we pick the stage?

You may chose the stage.

Cool puzzle, thanks! I think there are a lot of different ways to solve this one.

Wow I hadn't thought of that one! Yes, that's correct, but the way I was thinking uses cebgrpgbe bs ybervra and rbjla to advance and then farnx nggnpx with orbea and fba bs neabe. Thanks!

@WandalftheGizzardThat was my first thought, but you can't do that with these decks - you're missing a key card.

Woops, I actually left that out! Good catch!
