How to get a 2XKO referral code

According to Riot Games, only selected participants will get a referral link that gives 2XKO Alpha Lab access to one other person. This is because each link can only be redeemed one time. Therefore, if one of your friends has access to the fighting game, then it won't hurt to ask if they have a free referral link. Simply ask them to check their email.
