Introduction

Insert character introduction here.

• Movement: Iggy possesses several movement options, such as a fast run speed, the ability to run backwards, and airdashes.
• Aerial Chain Beat: While in Stand Off, Iggy can chain his aerial attacks, allowing him to have different combos and confirms.
• You callin' me tiny?!: Due to his extremely short size, Iggy is subjected to certain universal mechanics in different ways that most characters.

Playstyle

Iggy is a Stand character who utilizes his short size to ambush and overwhelm the opponent.
Pros	Cons
Potent Offense: While in Stand On, Iggy possesses solid normals in general. He is also able to jump-cancel most of his grounded normals, granting him unique conversions and mixups. Throw Resistance: Although at the cost of taking White Damage, Iggy's ability to automatically escape universal Throws grants him a unique immunity to Throw-based oki. Versatile Movement: With one of the fastest dash speeds in the game, the ability to run backwards, and various airdash types, Iggy is very good at choosing his spots and closing the distance.	Low Health: Iggy is tied for the lowest health in the game, making it very easy for the opponent to deal devastating damage to him for just catching him once. Bite-Sized: Iggy's short size grants abysmal range to his non-Stand attacks. While Stand On makes Iggy gain significantly more range, it also increases his hurtbox, making him easier to hit. Made of Glass: Uniquely, Iggy takes chip damage from blocking normals while in Stand Off. Combined with being unable to recover Guard Gauge in this mode, and his actual defensive maneuver costing him meter, blocking in general is incredibly punishing.

You callin' me tiny?!

Iggy is the absolute smallest character in the game while in Stand Off, allowing him to dodge several attacks but also hindering his range. Because Iggy is so short, however, he is subjected to specific rules for certain universal mechanics:

• Iggy automatically escapes universal Throws; in return, he takes the Throw's damage as White Damage.
• While in Stand Off, Iggy takes chip damage from normals, and his Guard Gauge will not recover.
• While in Stand On, Iggy is able to jump-cancel most of his grounded normals.

L version: Has the shortest range, reaching about a character away. When used in the air, Iggy barely moves from his position. M version: Longer range, reaching 1/3 of the screen.

Assist

4S

Sand Dome 4S or 1S The literal lifeline The literal lifeline

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Block Adv. Hit Adv. - - - - - - - Iggy uses The Fool to block attacks by turning it into a hard dome made of sand. Costs 0.3 HH Gauge; can hold to extend at the cost of draining the HH Gauge. When used in a neutral state, the input buffer for this move is highly specific: 4/1 and S must be pressed at the same time; holding 4/1 before pressing S (or viceversa) will not work. Can be used while Iggy is already blocking. Only in this specific instance, Iggy is allowed to hold 4/1 before pressing S. While active, Iggy will not take Chip Damage or Guard Damage, and will automatically defend against all attack attributes, including Unblockable attacks (except for Risotto's "Control iron within 5-10 meters").

Heart Heat Attack

Surround 'em! 236 + Any Two Attack Buttons	Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Block Adv. Hit Adv. 142 (12+130) Mid 2+12 - - - Groundbounce Iggy, through the Fool, creates a wave of sand. If it connects, The Fool manifests and lifts the opponent high into the air before forcefully piledriving them into the ground as Iggy wakes up from a brief nap. Can hit OTG.

Great Heat Attack

Serves you right! 236L+M+H

Damage Guard Startup Active Recovery Block Adv. Hit Adv. 348 (60+24+6*10+24*4+108) Mid 2+26 - - - Groundbounce The Fool generates a massive sand wave in a large area in front of Iggy.

Has an alternate animation if Iggy is using his "Special A" costume.
