Can you react with Zhonya's Hourglass to save a unit at a different battlefield than where Zhonya's is hidden?
Ruling: Yes, you can react with Zhonya's Hourglass to save a unit at any battlefield, not just the one where it's hidden.
Sequence:
- Zhonya's is played from hidden directly to base (gear cannot be played to battlefields)
- Its effect does not target, so it is not restricted to the battlefield where it was hidden
- The effect applies wherever appropriate
Nuances:
- The restriction on playing cards from hidden only applies to targeting - cards gain "here" as a targeting restriction when played from hidden
- Effects that don't target (like Zhonya's) receive no restriction and apply wherever appropriate
- Gear is always played to base, never to a battlefield, even when played from hidden
- Only units have the "must be played to the battlefield they were played from" restriction
