• When you have enough copies of a specific card you can trade copies of it along with Shinedust in order to obtain a Sparkles: Gold Flair which can then be used on the remaining copies of the same card.
• Once you have unlocked Sparkles: Gold Flair you can then continue to unlock further more expensive Flair.
• Typically you obtain Shinedust by getting duplicate copies of cards.
