It just looks like that because the damage is a single nuke. The actual damage done is comparable to multiple spellcasts and some autoattacks, usually all possible within 3 seconds.

The beauty of it is within causing the enemy to hesitate and make a decision on-spot as to whether they should be running from the AoE, or stay and fight. All the while they're slowed to a crawl.
