*The '''Splat Roller''' Series
**[[Splat Roller]] – The base Roller in Splatoon. It allows for decent speed and wide turf coverage, with a mid-range fling. Comes with [[Suction Bomb]]s and the [[Killer Wail]].
***[[Krak-On Splat Roller]] – Has the same stats as the Splat Roller, but comes with [[Squid Beakon]]s and the [[Kraken]] for a more aggressive play style.
***[[Hero Roller Replica]] – An [[amiibo]]-brand Roller based on the Hero Roller from the [[Inkling Boy amiibo]] challenges. However, it is simply a re-skin of the Splat Roller, with the same stats and loadout.
*The '''Dynamo''' Series
**[[Dynamo Roller]] – A slower, more powerful Roller. While its rolling speed and Ink-flinging attack are both slower than that of the Splat Roller, it covers a wider area when rolling and can fling Ink at a very impressive range. Comes with [[Sprinkler]]s and the [[Echolocator]].
***[[Gold Dynamo Roller]] – Has the same stats as the Dynamo Roller, but comes with [[Splat Bomb]]s and the [[Inkstrike]], for a less support-oriented role.
*The '''Carbon''' Series
**[[Carbon Roller]] – A lightweight Roller that acts as a middle ground between the fast Brushes and slower Splat Roller. Although it cannot squish enemies in one hit, rolling and flinging speed are significantly improved, giving it the fastest one-hit splat out of all weapons. Comes with [[Burst Bomb]]s and the [[Inkzooka]].
***[[Carbon Roller Deco]] – Has the same stats as the Carbon Roller, but comes with the [[Seeker]] sub and [[Bomb Rush]] special weapons.
 
=== Brushes ===
Brushes are an unofficial [[Sub Classes|Sub Class]] of Rollers. They are characteristically much faster and more mobile than conventional rollers, but do not do nearly as much in the way of contact damage, making squishing enemies virtually impossible. However, instead of flinging Ink, Brushes quickly swipe from side to side, flicking many smaller globs. This rapid-fire flick is their primary means of spreading Ink and attacking enemies, making them ideal for fast, close-combat action.
*The '''Inkbrush''' Series
**[[Inkbrush]] – An extremely fast Brush. When pushing it along the ground, it has a very narrow coverage and is quite weak, but it greatly increases the user's speed. It also has an incredibly fast flick, but the range is quite short. It comes with [[Sprinkler]]s and the [[Inkstrike]].
***[[Inkbrush Nouveau]] – Has the same stats as the Inkbrush, but comes with [[Ink Mine]]s and the [[Bubbler]] for more a more defensive play style.
*The '''Octobrush''' Series
**[[Octobrush]] – Something of a compromise compared to the Inkbrush. It lacks the extremely high running and flicking speed, but has better range, Ink coverage, and damage output. It comes in a set with [[Squid Beakon]]s and the [[Kraken]].

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.

With the Inkling Boy amiibo, the player can use a Roller for Octo Valley missions.

Glowing Ink flung from a Roller.

Trivia

  • Ink flung from any Roller will glow before it lands. This is often difficult to see, however, due to bright lighting in some areas and the small amount of time for which the Ink is in the air.
