I think this comes back to what firedale posted. Both Jain's Hero Ability and the conditional for Poison (or any other Condition) occur during Step 5: Deal Damage. When two things occur simultaneously, the current player decides the order of occurrence.
But the two things do not happen simultaneously: one (Jain's) prevents the other (poison) from happening.
Where do the rules say which one happens first? Nowhere. Thus those happen at the same time. If the spider was doing counter attack during hero's turn then the hero could decide to first use his ability then to check if he is poisoned. But is spider attacks during OL turn OL decides to first check for poison, then allow ability to work.
It's simple. At least simple enough for 14 year old kid to grasp. My box says 14+. What does yours?
Mine says 41, but I'm lysdexic ... way either fine it suites me ;)
