Carbon Roller

The Carbon Roller is a main weapon in the SS undefined.

Compared to the basic Splat Roller, the Carbon Roller is the lighter and more mobile roller. It has an incredibly fast flick that still splats opponents in one hit. However, its attack power and range is weaker, and it is unable to crush Inklings in one hit.

Appearance
The main parts of the Carbon Roller are an ink tank and a cylindrical roller frame, both of which change color to match the user's ink. The roller frame has red supports on either side connecting it to the ink tank. The supports make a handle at the end of the tank.

Splatoon
The Carbon Roller was released on 2015-06-27 at July 27, 2024. It comes with Burst Bombs and Inkzooka.

Each flick consumes 3.5% of the ink tank capacity, allowing players to fling 28 times before needing to refill.

Splatoon 2
The Carbon Roller comes with Autobombs and Ink Storm.

Each flick consumes 4% of the ink tank capacity, allowing players to fling 25 times before needing to refill.

The Carbon Roller is much faster than almost any other Roller in the game, and is very ink-efficient, allowing players to cover large amounts of turf quickly. This is slightly impaired by the fact that it will cover a little bit less surface area than most Rollers, even though it’s very quick. It is very useful to cover ground quickly, but is lacking in mid-to long range combat.

It appears in two Octo Expansion Stations:
 * Brute Rollup Station
 * Targetbuster Station

Trivia

 * Out of all main and sub weapons, the Carbon Roller has the fastest one-hit-splat time, going through the motion of a single flick in 11 frames (less than a quarter a second).
 * The Carbon Roller is the only non-brush roller weapon that does not crush with a single hit while rolling over the opponent.
 * The Carbon Roller is designed after a bicycle's bottle cage, with the water bottle used as the weapon's reservoir.

Etymology
Carbon refers to Carbon fiber, a very light material from which the Carbon Roller is made. Many bicycle frames are made of carbon fiber, which alludes to the possibility that the Carbon Roller was made from salvaged bicycle parts.
