Use

The Big Swig Roller is a supportive roller-type weapon, with the roller part more extensive, for a wider horizontal and farther vertical range, and a fast fire rate. As described by Sheldon, this weapon was made to ink lots of turf, and with a defensive kit to help out with its weak damage output.

  • The Big Swig Roller can be used well in Turf War and Splat Zones. The sub-weapon, Splash Wall can help protect the player, the Big Swig can out-ink their opponents and help capture the zone, and when guarding the zones, or getting attacked, the Ink Vac can help protect the zones and the player, respectively.
  • The Big Swig Roller is weak in combat against other players, however, the Big Swig Roller's damage to objects is its key feature. It deals twice as much damage to any object (ex: brella shields, rainmaker shields, Squid Beakons) as it would to players.
  • The quick rate of fire can compensate for the damage, as players can splat enemies in 3 quick swings at least.

Synergy

Countermeasures

  • The Big Swig Roller is a fragile weapon, and weapons with high DPS can easily overwhelm it.
