Maybe I should be embarrassed to admit this, but I’ve played more than 150 Heroes of the Storm games as Zeratul and it somehow never occurred to me during those many, many hours spent with the badass StarCraft II assassin that I could save my team from the outermost brink of defeat. Or at least in this way.
See, Zeratul has a so-called “heroic ability” that unlocks at level 10 that conjures up what looks like a large dome of Jell-O, freezing anything — friend or foe — that’s trapped inside for a valuable few seconds.
YouTuber and Reddit-er JJ TheMighty used this Jell-O casting move (technically, it’s called a “Void Prison”, though I prefer to think that Zeratul summon a huge mound of Jell-O is official StarCraft canon) on his own team’s core right when it was about to be destroyed by their opposition:
The Void Prison gave his team a window of opportunity they used to destroy the enemy base in turn.
I’m definitely going to have to use this trick next time the health for my team’s core drops into the single digits.

Void Prism is one of the best heroic ability in HoTs. I have seen so many epic boss steals, and core saves when it’s used well. Also if your teams good you can team wipe in seconds. Usually something like, Void Prism following by a well timed Precision Strike or Gaz’s gravity bomb… any of the good bulk DPS/AOE heroics.
I’ve never played Zeratul but I’ve been in games with him. Had no idea the ability could be used on structures, don’t think I’ve ever seen it used that way.
These ones are my fav, pretty much if your team has a Zeratul player with any idea what they are doing they can steal and boss: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rz-FYNn4JQs
Dis one as well, so good, team chat summarizes it brilliantly: “You sir zeratul are mvp of this age”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZmL9sfF5LQ
