Stage 2
Play for winstreak with Bilgewater. You can itemize Twisted Fate on Stage 1 PvE to guarantee Graves by 2-1.
Stage 3
Get 5 Bilgewater online for more Silver Serpents. Don't spend Serpents on useless 1/2 cost Bilgewaters. Instead, spend 1 Serpent on Restock for a better shop.
Stage 4
Push levels instead and let the Silver Serpent shop get you the 3* units. Roll on level 8 for Miss Fortune and 3 costs. Late game drop out of 7 Bilge for 5 costs.
