1) Cards like this one that place on a hero and decrease every turn do not decrease the hero when they are first played, correct? And they only decrease each upkeep on whoever's turn it was when it was played?

2) Would Goshen be able to take in heroes if they were decreased to */0 due to this card or Poison o' Dragons? Does Goshen trigger if the hero is reduced to */0 or if the hero would be discarded due to the decrease?
