Dynamo Roller

The Dynamo Roller is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2.

The Dynamo Roller can cover turf while in motion and can fling a large amount of ink at medium range. Compared to the, this roller is much slower but covers a larger area while rolling and throwing ink. It has the greatest range of all the Roller class weapons, but sacrifices speed; it rolls slowly when pushed, and it takes over a second to fling ink. The slow ink-flinging windup animation leaves the player vulnerable when attacking, as no other actions may be performed while readying the fling, and it is not possible to cancel a fling once initiated. The Dynamo Roller's weight class is Heavy, so mobility will be impaired when it is equipped, even when not attacking with the weapon.
