Curling Bomb

The Curling Bomb is a sub weapon in Splatoon 2.

Splatoon 2
When deployed, the Curling Bomb travels in a straight line across the floor, leaving a trail of ink and bouncing off of any wall or obstacle it encounters. It explodes after it has traveled its maximum distance. The maximum distance of the Curling Bomb may be shortened by charging, or 'cooking' it with before release - unless it is coming from a Curling-Bomb Launcher, in which case, this increases its travel distance. 'Cooking' the Curling Bomb also causes it to grow larger, increasing the amount of turf it inks as it travels and the size of its blast radius.

While traveling, the Curling Bomb deals 20 damage to enemies it comes into contact with. Upon detonation, it deals 180 damage to enemies in the main blast radius and 30 damage to enemies in the outer blast radius.

The Curling Bomb is comparable to the Seeker from, though it excels in path-making as it cannot be 'distracted' by enemy Inklings and Octolings. The wall-bouncing and cooking capabilities of the Curling Bomb also hold versatility over the Seeker.

It appears in two Octo Expansion Stations:
 * Notorious Station
 * Girl Power Station

Quotes
"A bomb that slides along the ground, inking it as it goes, before finally exploding. It bounces back if it hits a wall.

Pressing and holding allows you to adjust the time to detonation. The longer you hold, the sooner the bomb will detonate."
