Rollers are one of the five Main Weapon classifications in Splatoon. The Roller easily spreads Ink over a wide area around the user, making it an ideal weapon for Inking on the go. For most Rollers, running into enemies will instantly splat them, changing the splat cam message from "splatted" to "squished". For attacking enemies out of melee range, Rollers also have a mid-range Ink-flinging attack.
