Erosion

Erosion
Action
Quietus
[1 Blood]
+1 stealth action.
[qui] Put this card on a minion controlled by another Methuselah. That minion has a base strength of 0 and cannot use melee weapons; he or she may burn this card as a +1 stealth action.
[QUI] As above, but the action to burn this card does not get +1 stealth.

I have never seen this card played and I think I know why, but I want to make sure. Since this card mentions base strength does it just mean that instead of having 3 strength Hardestadt will have 2 (0+2)?

Thanks

So, to keep things uniform, it looks like Erosion shouldn't cancel
Zack's +1 damage after all (just set his base to zero, for a total
of 1).

(Zack North has +1 strength.)
