Hello

I am playing the Gyruda deck, I copied from the Internet, but when I go to arena, the Gyruda that I have in the sideboard I put in in the companion slot. click save. Go to game and I dont have the Gyruda as my companion. Actually, if I put the Gyruda aas companion, and then I save the deck, and reopen, it is not set as companion....I rechecked and all my cards are even cost cards...what can this be?

Hello Azrael (that is my cat's name too btw),

We have a fix for this issue coming in the next update. Here's what you can do in the meantime.

Add another Gyruda to you deck
Put that Gyruda in your companion slot
Save the deck
Reopen it and take out the extra Gyruda from your sideboard

Hopefully, that helps!
