Can’t sideboard
I’ve been playing bo3 Timeless matches on iPad and I am unable to sideboard at all between games after the latest patch. I click on cards in my sideboard to add them and it doesn’t add them. After game 1 I am sometimes able to sideboard normally, but never after game 2. Sometimes I’m able to remove cards from the deck but I’m unable to add any back in, even the ones I’d just removed. When this happens all I can do is restart MTGA, which doesn’t fix the problem but it at least resets my deck to 60 cards again so I can submit a legal deck and don’t need to wait for the timer to tick down. I’ve been unable to replicate the conditions that cause this to occur or not, but I’d say most of the time I am unable to sideboard after game 1 and never after game 2, and sideboardinggmae 1 seems to be broken more often than it works. I’ve mostly been playing decks with Lurrus as my companion, but I’ve also run into this problem with a Yorion companion.

I am having similar problems for months now and it is getting worse and worse (as in more and more frequent). I repaired the game files, I reinstalled. Nothing helped. When the game has connection issues instead of actually waiting for a reconnection to the server the game kicks me to main screen. When I reconnect, I get taken back to my active match but I can't sideboard anymore. This has ruined so many matches by now I am about to quit arena alltogether until this is fixed. It is just extremely frustrating...

Exact same experience on iPad, more frequently a problem after game 2. Either I remove cards and am unable to add, or I can do both but I get an error saying either too few or too many cards in my deck, when the number is the same as before sideboard.

I'm encountering the same issue.
I'm on Mac. I had the same problem a few months ago but then it disappeared again.
Now it's back and it's annoying as ****. -

This happened to me THREE TIMES while playing on Windows 11! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE for the love of God FIX THIS. nothing sucks more than knowing you've got a solid sideboard plan against a specific deck, only to be COMPLETELY UNABLE to add or remove cards from my dang sideboard, clicking furiously to no avail. FIX THIS!!!

Seems this bug is back, I got hit with it twice tonight in bo4 standard games, It just refuses to allow me to sideboard at all, Try restarting etc but it wont let me at all. Not sure where they are investing there money but its not in Arena or making it work properly.

Exactly, this is what I was going to mention. Have it fixed ASAP, it's been around for quite some time!

This is still happening to me. Like 1 in every 5 games. Android and PC. I'm about ready to stop playing Arena.
