Compared to the basicSplat Roller, the Carbon Roller is the lighter and more mobileroller. It has an incredibly fast flick that still splats opponents in one hit. However, its attack power and range is weaker, and it is unable to crush opponents in one hit.
The main parts of the Carbon Roller are anink tank and a cylindrical roller frame, both of which change color to match the user's ink. Unlike the other rollers, the frame is attached to both sides of the paint roller. The frame of the roller resembles that of a bicycle, and the ink tank is connected to it by a bike's bottle holder, and the tank itself is designed to look like a sports bottle. The roller frame has red supports on either side connecting it to the ink tank. The supports curve around to make a handle at the end of the tank, looking like a handlebar from a bike, having what resembles a brake lever on the back. The ends of the paint roller are covered with black disks. The roller itself has a series of stripe indents across it, and is coated with the player's ink when their tank is not empty.
InSplatoon 3, the Carbon Roller retains its design from the previous games, but its frame now has a yellow-orange and black color scheme.
InSplatoon, the ink tank is white with a gray logo, white with a black logo inSplatoon 2, and the user's ink color and black with a different black logo inSplatoon 3. InSplatoon andSplatoon 2, there is Inkling text on one half of the black disks on the end of the roller, and arrows around the other half's circumference. InSplatoon 3, there is a different design with a white logo encased in a white dashed circle, which is encased in two arrows around the circumference of the disk, one yellow, one light blue.
