Colossus Smash comes from Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard's team-based hero battler built around characters from its wider game worlds. Varian Wrynn, the warrior king from Warcraft, uses the ability to smash through an opponent's armour, making the target take increased damage for a short time. Soundboard users have lifted the clean ability cue for use outside the game, especially in short gaming edits where a single heavy hit needs to land clearly. Its continued use comes from that clarity: it is instantly recognisable as a powerful strike, even to viewers who have never played the match.
