Splat Roller
The Splat Roller is a Main Weapon in Splatoon.
Description
The Splat Roller is a large paint roller that allows for quick turf coverage. When utilized, it flings Ink at a short range. If the player continues this action, uninterrupted, the Splat Roller touches the ground and is able to leave a wide trail of Ink identical to the player's movements. This weapon is in a set with the Suction Bomb and Killer Wail. Enemies making direct contact with the roller are splatted almost instantly. Head-on confrontation between two roller users results in both players splatting.
“ | A weapon adopted from an ordinary paint roller. Aside from inking the ground, it can also be swung to hurl globs of ink at your opponents. | ” |

Notes
“ | This basic roller has decent ink splatter range and roll speed. The Suction Bomb can be used to force opponents away from a specific spot, which may put them in a range of a melee strike- or you can simply roll over them as they attempt to escape the Suction Bomb's blast. | ” |
