How to Use Dynamo Roller Effectively



Best used to cover your allies from behind at medium range.

The Dynamo Roller's primary attack can reach foes from a slightly longer distance than the Splat Roller. However, the damage still isn't as good when using it for ranged attacks (40 Damage). You can still use this instead to wear down your opponents for your allies to finish the job of eliminating them.

Throw the Sprinkler behind enemy lines so if ever they retreat, they are still in the range of it as they fall back.

This sub weapon gradually damages your opponent so it's best to throw it exactly behind their positions. This will maximize the distance of effect of the Sprinkler if ever they retreat, they will still get affected by it.

Keep inking floors to fill up your Special-Gauge! Use the Tacticooler as soon as it ready to provide support for your team.

Support your team by inking areas at the start of the match to fill up your special-gauge quickly. Deploy Tacticooler as soon as you get them to provide enchancement abilities for you and your team -- boosting your chances of winning!
