Roller

The Roller is one of the eleven Main Weapons available.

It's a short-range weapon that excels in painting large areas with ink.

Rollers spread a trail of ink beneath and behind the player. By tapping the attack button the player can splash ink directly in front of them, however doing this slows down the player. It has a very short range.

Rollers leave a wide trail of ink and can inflict massive damage by splashing or simply rolling over enemies, but are bad at covering walls and slopes. An example of a roller is the Splat Roller

Brushes[]

Brush are roller-like weapons with rapid-but-weaker swing attack (without any long-range attack mode) and faster running speed when "rolling" that leaves a thinner trail of ink. Prior to Splatoon 3, they are classified as rollers.
