Bug Fixes

The status effect descriptions in the detailed card view screen have been moved to the left to have space for up to 4 status effect descriptions.
The "Incoming damage" text no longer appears in the status effect descriptions when inspecting cards that inflict Bleed or Poison in the Codex.
Many cards that didn't show the related status effect descriptions when inspecting them now show them correctly.
