Port Mackerel and Flounder Heights sound great to my run with the Carbon Roller Deco. I bet I can do things in Rainmaker too, particularly with Seekers painting long, straight lines. That is, if I can aim them down the long, straight lines. This is why I take a moment ...

Back to the Carbon Roller Deco to finish tonight's session. It's not easy to use, but I think that just means I should get more practice with it. Although I really shouldn't treat it like a bucket, I can't help but take similar routes as with a Tri-slosher.
I don't find ...

I'm still not entirely sure how to start a Ranked battle with the Carbon Roller Deco. Inking my way around away from the objective would let me build up my Special charge, but the Seeker Rush isn't always that effective. But rushing to the objective is pretty tricky to pull ...

I like to think I'm getting the hang of the Carbon Roller Deco. Or just being a better inkling. Look how I try to launch a Seeker as I reach an edge at the start of this battle, am low on ink, and continue Rolling without breaking stride. And although ...

So much water in Mahi-Mahi Resort. I've come to embrace it, somewhat literally too. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
I am getting the hang of the Carbon Roller a little. I impress myself with how I can flick, squid, and jump across gaps pretty smoothly. That gets me to the ...

It's a great start to this Tower Control battle for me! I make some good early progress towards the Tower, splat a Splat Roller, and then sneak around the back to splat him again. I get another splat after that, and am only defeated by a Kraken, which I force ...

Seekers are pretty good for inking a path, handy for early in the battle as much as when the oppositions' ink is everywhere. But they are really ink-hungry, which even with a Roller can cause me to run out of ink when I need it. I need to be aware ...

Okay, my initial aim with the Seekers isn't great, and diving over the Tower to the orange side is a bad idea. The orange team get a decent lead as I flail around in the wrong place.
But my squidmates come together nicely to reset the Tower, and make our own ...

Right, the Carbon Roller Deco, with its Seekers, on Hammerhead Bridge. I think I like the Deco more, so I want to make this work. I'm recognising the importance of having plenty of turf inked for the Carbon Roller, and start the battle inking. I'll work on how to aim ...

Back to the Deco version of the Carbon Roller. Good for Splat Zones, I would think, and on Flounder Heights. If I get going, that is. I am double-teamed early on, and spend a second wondering how the bloody hell they got up to that side of the Heights so ...
