Flingza Roller
The Flingza Roller is a main weapon in Splatoon 2.
The Flingza Roller is capable of long-range vertical swings like the Dynamo Roller, while not having to share its low mobility. As a trade-off, its damage at long range is lower than the Dynamo Roller. For horizontal swings, the swing speed and damage of the Flingza Roller are between the Carbon Roller and the Splat Roller. Like other roller-type weapons, the Flingza Roller can be pushed along the ground to cover turf while moving, and only needs one well-aimed ink fling attack to splat an opponent.
Appearance
Like most rollers, the Flingza Roller has two main parts; the handle and the roller. Both parts appear to fold out of a rectangular prism-seemingly made of metal and red wood-that resembles a Template:Wp. The handle is a simple u-shaped piece of metal with black grips. The roller, unlike other rollers', is thicker on the right and thinner on the left. It is attached to the Swiss Army knife bit via some metal supports. Said supports also screw into the right side of the roller.

Sheldon's Introduction
The Flingza Roller is a wild one. Its shape changes depending on whether you swing vertically or horizontally! It allows for quick horizontal ink flings before switching to a vertical fling-like SWISH, SPLAT! Use the Splash Wall sub to create some safety then send your team to the front line by laying down an ink path with a vertical swing. Protect your friends that to the front with the Splat-Bomb Launcher! |

Trivia
- The Flingza Roller is visually designed after a Template:Wp. The idle stance and vertical swing show the nib (also seen in the promo image above) while the horizontal swing and rolling stance have the pen with its cap on. As detailed in The Art of Splatoon 2, it is also designed after a Template:Wp.
