Before I showcase my hero concept for Iago, I would like to once again honor the man who provided his voice, the late actor and comedian Gilbert Gottfried.
Some had the chance to meet him personally, while the rest were honored to laugh at his work in his name. May said laughter continue for as long as comedy exists, as may Gottfried’s legacy.
Iago
The cockiest and most smart-mouthed macaw in Agrabah joins the City, takes on the vile creeps, and seals a powerful victory with flying colors!

Blue Skill - Impressionist
Iago imitates the sound of a creep (selected at random), charming two random enemies for 6 seconds.
Purple Skill - Polly Wants a Cracker
If Iago reaches 0% his max HP, he regenerates his HP completely and hits the enemy that last attacked him with a cracker in hand, giving them Dysentery. Enemies with Dysentery have their attack speed slowed down by 50% and gain 60% less HP and energy.
This skill can only be performed once per wave.
