As mentioned, all Android users anywhere in the world can unlock the content by collecting 100,000 XP. The skin for iOS is now exclusive to users in the European Union.

- Find any card in Creative Mode, for example the one with the code 6155-1398-4059
- Join the map in a private lobby with a friend
- Leave the game while your friend is still there
- Get back into the game
