Iggy’s Abilities
Passive: Gaze
Iggy has five energy, and cooldown has an impact on energy regeneration. Energy is only used by its Explosive Fireball Ability.
The location of an enemy hero hit by Iggy’s Ability 2 while in the Ember state will be made public for a while. Iggy will earn energy during this time if he inflicts damage on the target with other skills.
Skill 1: Explosive Fireball
Iggy rushes forward to launch an Explosive Fireball that deals magic damage to nearby foes and more magic damage to those in the center.
Skill 2: Fire Shadow
Iggy enters the ember state, which gives him an 80% increase in movement speed for 4 seconds (gradually decreases).
Iggy’s ability evolves to lock onto the adversary and detonate for 6 seconds while in the Ember state. It knocks the enemy back after striking them and deals magic damage. It then bursts once more, this time causing magic damage to the vicinity.
Skill 3: Ember’s Gaze
Iggy charges before unleashing Ember’s Gaze, which deals magic damage to all foes nearby.
