- 4 Sage Packs
- 1 Elemental Market deck
- 1 Command Market deck
- 4 Level Tracker Tokens
- 4 sage Boards
- 20 Double-sided Boost Tokens
- 20 Double-sided Shield Tokens
- 20 double-sided Damage Counters
- 20 Double-sided Gold Coins
Start by having each player choose a Sage and take the corresponding Sage board and Sage pack.
Your Sage pack contains:
- 1 Elemental Sage card
- 3 Elemental Champion cards
- 4 Basic Elemental cards
- 3 Elemental Warrior cards
- 6 Command cards
Each Sage belongs to an Elemental faction (Pebble 
, Droplet 
, Twig 
, or Leaf 
). Each card in your Sage pack is marked by a star symbol. Once you and your opponent have chosen your Elemental factions, return any remaining Sage boards and Sage packs back to the game box.
Place your Sage board in front of you, then take your level tracker token and place it on level 1 of the level tracker on your Sage board. Locate the Elemental Champions in your Sage pack. Each of your Elemental Champions is marked with a level that corresponds with a level that corresponds with a number on your level tracker; place each Elemental Champion face down on your Sage board in the designated area corresponding to its number.
Use the remaining Elementals in your Sage pack to create your formation. A formation consists of 3 rows into which you'll summon Elementals throughout the game.
If you're playing with 2 players: Row I in your formation has space for 1 Elemental, Row II has space for 2 Elementals, and Row III has space for 3 Elementals. You'll set up your formation directly across from your opponent's formation.
Start by seperating the Basic Elementals, Elemental Warriors, and Sage from your Sage pack. Take 3 of your Basic Elementals, add 1 into Row I and 2 into Row II of your formation face up, and then set aside the remaining Basic Elemental. Next, take your Sage and place it in the center of Row III. Finally, choose 2 of your Elemental Warriors and place them face up to the left and right of your Sage in Row III.
If you're playing with 4 players: Row I in your team's formation has space for 2 Elementals, Row II has space for 4 Elementals, and Row III has space for 6 Elementals. You will set up half the formation using the cards in your Sage pack, and your teammate will set up the other half. You'll set up your team's formation directly across from the opposing team's formation.
Start by seperating the Basic Elementals, Elemental Warriors, and Sage from your Sage pack. Take 3 of your Basic Elementals, add 1 into Row I and 2 into Row II of your formation face up, and then set aside the remaining Basic Elemental. Next, take your Sage and place it in the center of Row III. Finally, choose 2 of your Elemental Warriors and place them face up to the left and right of your Sage in Row III.
Take the remaining Elemental Warrior, the Basic Elemental you set aside, and the 6 Commands from your Sage pack and shuffle them. Place the stack face down below your Sage board to form your deck. Leave space next to your deck for your discard pile. Draw 5 cards from your deck to form your hand.
Take all Elementals that don't belong to a Sage pack, shuffle them to form the Elemental Market deck, and place it face down within reach to all players. (Hint: all Elementals that you'll shuffle into the Elemental Market deck have a gold coin symbol in the bottom left corner.)
Next, take all Commands that do not belong to a Sage pack, shuffle them to form the Command Market deck, and place it face down below the Elemental Market deck. (Hint: all Commands that you'll shuffle into the Command Market deck have a gold coin symbol in the bottom left corner.)
Flip the top 3 cards of the Elemental Market deck face up to form the Elemental Market and flip the top 3 cards of the Command Market deck face up to form the Command Market.
As a final step, remove all tokens from the box and create seperate piles for each type of token (boost tokens, shield tokens, damage counters, and gold coins) within reach of all players.
