I've had similar experiences with Maokai.

There have been several times I can recall where a turret was getting approached by 4-5 enemy champs and I personally stalled them just by throwing my ult up. People are afraid of entering it. And even if you have more experienced players who realize that his ult doesn't instakill anyone who enters it, it still often gives them enough hesitation for backup to arrive and possibly save the turret.

The other reason this tactic is so useful is because of Maokai's extremely low cooldown on his ult. You can pretty much pop it every single time your turret is being threatened and not worry that you won't have it when it's needed again.
