Preface:

The earliest known trolls belonged to the Zandalar tribe, from which all other trolls originated. In general, the Zandalari valued knowledge above all else, but a significant part of the tribe craved conquest instead of knowledge. These disillusioned trolls left the tribe to create their tribes. As time went on, what remained of the Zandalar tribe was regarded as a caste of priest-shamans for all the trolls. The Zandalari have kept the history of the trolls, and they continue to work on the common goals of the society of trolls. Known to all of Azeroth for their high-tech machines and skills in magical art.

The former part of ancient Kalimdor, Zandalar is the birthplace of the trolls’ civilization, and also strictly neutral territory for all trolls. When the first Well of Eternity was destroyed, an explosion pierced a huge hole in Kalimdor. Deep cracks appeared throughout the continent, and Zandalar hastily began to create the strongest protective spells to save their home from destruction. But they could not protect the rest of the continent from cataclysm. The earth outside the Zandalar shield went under water, and the united Kalimdor turned into separate pieces of earth. When the Rift was finally completed, Zandalar saw that their home had become an island. Having restored their destroyed settlements, the trolls continued their research.

Resources:

Health - 1865 basically hit points.
Mana - 580 basically hit points.

Basic damage from auto attack - 97 damage on an area of 1.5 meters every 2 seconds.
For auto attack, the hero uses a combat staff that deals damage to the target in a whirls of wind. Radius of 5 meters.

\\ Abilities:

[Q] - «Whirlwind of Zakunda» - It launches a whirlwind in the selected direction, which travels 5.5 meters at a speed of 2 meters per second. Repeated pressing changes the direction of the whirlwind movement, but not more than once every 0.5 seconds. Slows down enemies in its path by 15% for 1 second. The ability interacts with [W]. The diameter of the whirlwind 1.5 meters. Requires 30 mana. Cooldown 12 seconds.

  • While working with the whirl, the character can move and use other abilities.

[W] - «Spatial Stasis» - During the movement of the whirl (Q), you can use the ability [W] to capture an ally, opponent or flying ability of the enemy hero to pitch it inside the whirlwind, in the direction of movement. A target nearest to the center of the whirl or flying ability is captured inside the whirl at the moment of pressing [W] from 1.75 meters in diameter. Hitting an enemy with a captured and redirected enemy ability will deal damage to him. While capturing and moving, all the during effects of this target stop in time. Repeated pressing releases the target or object in the direction of motion, and disperses the whirlwind. Reduces the cooldown time [Q] by the number of seconds equal to the distance traveled by the captured target with [W] multiplied by 1.5. Requires 30 mana.

  • A captured character becomes immune to damage and cannot perform actions; falls into stasis.

  • The ability can catch yourself, and it can be released prematurely, even while in this stasis, as Zakunda understands the interaction with the wind.

  • Global cooldown abilities [Q] and [W] among themselves is absent. This means that (Q)>[Q] or (Q)>[W] can be taken instantly at the right moment.

  • A whirlwind without an object or character passes through the characters, but not through obstacles.

  • Whirlwind with the character stops when confronted with other characters.

  • A whirlwind with a captured ability, when confronted with a character, causes this character to suffer damage from this ability. A whirlwind can capture one of the falling meteorites of Guldan’s ultimate ability, and redirect the damage of this meteorite to the target. The ability also catches Jaina’s one-volley falling ice fragments.

  • Frogs of Nazeebo caught do not do damage to the Nazeebo, but do damage to other enemies. I will not list all the abilities, there you can already just think logically.

  • Uther’s {W} ability and similar “intangible” abilities are not caught.

  • The ability does not dispel the potential of the captured abilities, but just redirects its.

  • For security reasons, it is not recommended to redirect enemy capabilities towards the allies.

  • Does not affect autoattacks and target abilities, like the Kael’thas fireball and the pathogen of Stukov.

  • Not valid for bosses.

  • With the help of the whirlwind, you can move to the fountain of the allied hero, who, under the influence of periodic damage, may not be able to reach himself, as the ability stops the duration of the effects imposed on the captured target.

[E] - «Earthquake» - Causes an earthquake at a specified location, inflicting 23 points of damage on an area of 3 meters every 0.25 seconds for 3.5 seconds. Auto attacks of Zakunda on opponents that are in the range of an ability slows them down by 12% for 1 second. Requires 45 mana. Cooldown 10 seconds.

  • The ability looks as if trembling cracks appear on the ground, from which fire flashes.
