- In-Game Description

"This lightweight roller excels in the mobility department. Its fling attack doesn’t toss a ton of ink, but it’s coupled with Burst Bombs for ranged splattage. Throw an Inkzooka in the mix and it’s on like Crusty Sean!"

Tips

 * Though the Carbon Roller is incapable of rolling over people in one hit, Carbon Rollers are instead given an incredibly fast flick. In fact, (not counting steamrolling with an already deployed roller, or a pre-charged charger shot) the Carbon Roller has the fastest 1-hit-KO of any weapon, going through the motion of a single flick in a short 11 frames (a bit less than half a second)!
 * Because of this, it is advised to try to attack enemies when they are close by, either by hiding nearby or luring towards you.
 * Burst Bombs are great for hitting enemies that keep themselves out of your flick range, but can also be used to make combos with the Roller's fast motions (i.e. hitting an enemy with a Burst Bomb, then easily splatting them with their lowered health).
 * One such combination (sometimes referred to Burst Canceling) is to throw a Burst Bomb directly at an enemy in close range, then flick the Carbon Roller immediately after.
 * The Inkzooka can be used to scare away enemies, to hit unwary enemies outside of your range, or to splat far away Chargers. However, be aware that it is a lot harder to attack close range with an Inkzooka, although it is still possible to use Burst Bombs while your Special is active.

Countering

 * Due to the short range of the, long ranged weapons may easily kill the player if they are not careful.
 * Alternatively, if using a short range weapon (e.g. Splattershot Jr., Aerospray RG, Sploosh-O-Matic), try to attack the before they see you or have time to react.
 * Since the 's flick distance is short, make sure to stay out of range. One can ward off a by placing Suction Bombs or shooting to keep them at bay.
 * If getting splatted by the is inevitable, place an Splat Bomb or Ink Mine upon your death in hopes it will in turn splat the, causing a trade.

Trivia

 * Out of all Main and Sub Weapons, the Carbon Roller has the fastest 1-hit-KO time, going through the motion of a single flick in 11 frames (approximately half a second).
