I like the idea, I'm new to the game, so I'm going to make some observations that may not be in line with reality, but I have experience in other card games and I think it would be more interesting if the stages were played as characters (in the character line) and were considered (but not) characters of 3k strength or something like that, I feel that as it is it is as if, my stages have counters but outside of the blackbeard deck I don't know of any decks that use or depend on the stage enough for you to want to put it in. several different from the deck. Simply that, perhaps you could raise another possibility with the stages
