The ULTIMATE CARBON ROLLER DECO Guide

[@SomeGalNamedEve]

I was expecting this guide to to be comprehensive, but god damn, I was not expecting it to be _this_ comprehensive!! I can completely see why it took so long to get this out, the amount of time and effort that obviously went into it is absolutely astounding. Everything - from the script, to the music choices, to the demonstrations, to literally going through every map in the game to point out good spots to be in - is just _incredibly_ well-done!! Absolutely phenomenal job on this guide, dude, I don't think there was any way you could have made it more comprehensive than this!

[@OmegaZidan]

Thank you!! This was a PAINN. It meant a lot to me, so I wanted to make sure it was peak. Although, there are already things I wish I changed OOPS

[@SomeGalNamedEve]

@@OmegaZidan I honestly don't see any flaws with this video lmao, you wanted to make it peak and you definitely succeeded in doing that

[@OmegaZidan]

@@SomeGalNamedEve Thank you 😭 bless

AS A PERSON WHO STOPPED PLAYING BRUSHES FOR MY BABY CARBON DECO, THIS HELPS SO MUCH.

[@kamabono3033]

Gonna let you know this actually helped me a shit ton, I'm dying less and getting more kills, preforming better, and having more fun playing carbon deco. This is genuinely one of the best guides for splatoon :D

[@OmegaZidan]

I'm glad :D

[@mooj.]

other important notes about ink and sub resistance: 1sub inkres also reduces the rate you take damage in enemy ink by 33% and gives a nice boost to movement speed through it, and 1sub subres also reduces tracking time from sensor/mine/marker by quite a lot (-1.5seconds for sensor) which is rlly nice for a sharky weapon

[@sorchamoon]

oou i never knew about the tracking time reduction, gonna have to try that out

[@OmegaZidan]

All very good pointers

[@beny400]

I'm far from perfect with carbon deco but here's something I learned after one-tricking it for almost a year: I found extremely useful to play off your teammates' specials. Don't just sit and watch a triple inkstrike or a booyah bomb from your team go. If it's safe, consider them as smoke bombs and get in. I saw Volty from AR do this and I've tried it. It sometimes does wonders :D I play a lot with my friend whose a slosher main and we often compare our dynamic to babysitting💀He provides paint and I call him out if I ever need a small patch of ink for me to go a certain place and shark so I don't get exposed trying to make one myself using a vertical flick or a burst bomb. I also try asking him whenever his special is ready in order to maybe use them to my advantage depending on the reason he's popping it. But yeah in general, communicating your actions is extremely important and it makes this game, and especially playing carbon deco, a lot more fun and satisfying! I'm so glad I picked up this weapon and I'm not planning on dropping it anytime soon. And if you haven't touched it yet well now is the time to join us :D

[@OmegaZidan]

BABYSITTING PFFT ya takee care of your team, good 🫡

[@daneleventsixti]

Holy crap this video is so well edited, not just talking about the script and info but just the footages putting together is already an art of itself

“We love you Omega for creating this guide” WE ALL SAY IN UNISON

[@apizzaduck9163]

I mainly play chargers and other backlines, so I couldn’t play a more different weapon than Carbon Deco. I’ve always wanted to pick it up for fun though, as it’s kit interested me. So yippee 40 minute guide on the bonk stick.

[@OmegaZidan]

PERFECTO

[@magtea3836]

Maybe this’ll persuade me to finally 5 star it

[@Splatser1]

Thank you for this video, Despite playing since splatoon 1's release, i never had really been into competetive untill shortly before grandfest. after getting quite comfortable with the carbon I knew i wanted to main it more and this video really helped. Thank you!

[@naskegon3520]

Got to 2300 power w/ carbon, aka new peak!! Thanks for this guide Omega!!!!!😇

thorough and thoughtful guide, omega! big ups to you

[@OmegaZidan]

STONKS UP

[@eligamerman]

THANK YOU for this beefy guide! Carbon has been one of my main weapons since Splat 1 and there still several new tricks that I picked up from this video. The time you took to make this was well worth it 👏🔥

[@OmegaZidan]

I'm glad cause man that was a LONGGGG EDITING GRIND

[@Rootof-2]

Thank you so much for this! It’s helped me improve loads

[@OmegaZidan]

Ofc!!

[@RASTATROK]

as far as i know you're the only mad man out there who manages to play deco competitevely without always using ninja squid. I think that some solo practice with swim speed up or QR really helps you to understand how to move stealthly without relying on the ability.

[@OmegaZidan]

No Ninja has its uses ^^ Thank you

[@Spacewizard9]

RAHHHHHHHHHHHH CARBON ROLLER! btw really appreciate the guide, tried learning the weapon because I played lots of splat roller but was intimidated by the burst bomb but this helps alot by giving me the knowlege to go about playing it! :D

[@madamesushellow234]

i started maining carbon deco barely after it arrived on splatoon 3 and this actually helped me a lot, specially on the matchups part you're such a big inspiration and i always try to study your vods when you play carbon on tournaments, so i'll keep on practicing to get better!

[@OmegaZidan]

I'll post more Carbon Tourney Vods then mwahahaha

[@Vlaffffy]

I don't play the game anymore but I still appreciate videos like these

[@jermm2183]

Holy shit this is a good guide. Carbon is one of my casual go-to weapons in all 3 games and I still learned a ton from this. The amount you super jump is something I found especially interesting and is something I definitely wanna try out. If there's anything I could add it's that the carbon is pretty much useless on its own, forced only to sharking. You gotta play off your allies, moreso than any other weapon or you will be at a bottleneck.

[@OmegaZidan]

Ngl Superjumping too much has led to me losing the match for my team too... decisions decisions decisions

Dude, the music selection was perfect! You know some really good kirby and sonic ost.

[@rockipkumi]

im in love with your music choices!! totally earned a sub for it alone. you're definitely a cool person, keep at it ♡

[@OmegaZidan]

Thank you!!

[@TheGrandStar]

Thank you for this guide, this is just what I needed as someone who is very used to an nzap playstyle😂 As for 13:10, my assumption is it does more damage at the tip of the flicks, and aiming too high up means the end of the flick goes over the opponent!

[@OmegaZidan]

Ofc!! I'm still unsure..

[@mister-sheep]

Nice to see signs of life here (from someone that doesn't watch shorts). Also a great guide. I don't play short range ambush weapons but I like to know how they think and what they do.

[@OmegaZidan]

I gotta post more then mwahahaha

[@JVSTG4L4XY]

I used to hate carbon deco but I kinda like it now and I also think Vcarbon is really fun too

[@OmegaZidan]

Zipcaster is mad fun on it

[@Sleppa_95]

I've 4 starred the carbon roller deco but I know for certain my lose ratio with it is probably quite high compared to my wins with it. I just enjoy using it because its fun. I've only been playing splatoon for like 5 months I believe so this video is helpful as I did not know some basic techquies like flicking on a ledge ( I don't just play carbon roller. Even then it's the only roller class I play 😅)

[@sliceofcheeseyza]

I also find it useful to have a sub of a main ink saver, just for tight spots

[@Patricimo1]

10:37 glad to help with clips for the video lmao

[@OmegaZidan]

[@crabtankstudios]

You're a good carbon player. I like your content, great video!

[@OmegaZidan]

Thank you!!

[@switch7728]

thanku soooo hardwork

[@13_cmi]

This is the most ooga booga weapon in this game. It’s funny that the proper way to use this is to just run in and be a psychotic gremlin. I’m not a competitive player so I won’t be any good with this but I’m having fun so far. It’s a big change from the slow paced back line stuff I do.

[@TempestDJ_56]

Not a lot of people know this but you can shark on the wall in mid of undertow spillway for quite a bit before you reach the floor without swimming up. You can even just swim over mid, on that wall from one end to the other, so long as its painted well enough. The more you know...

[@OmegaZidan]

BIGGGGG fan of this

[@TempestDJ_56]

That means a lot coming from you, thanks

[@icefireruby3245]

Im gonna start using these tips becaue im a splat roller main that likes carbon deco but perfers splat but wanna learn carbon deco

[@ujungwjsn]

Im flingza roller, and I want to move to at least try the Carbon because I want to stop using missles lol. Trizooka seems so cool.

After this guide, I finally got a carbon quad

[@OmegaZidan]

LETS GOOOO

[@gaius3741]

I guess is game over. Because no one is gonna beat the Carbon Roller Deco with that combo.

[@somewhatmarvelous]

thanks for this omg! i like playing support/midline with naut lol but carbon deco is so fun even though i'm mostly losing with it (for now) in TC i fear your carbon slayer propaganda has influenced me.... awesome video

[@Friigidus]

My carbon build is hat with main qr then sub power up and then two subs of sub saver my shirt has main swim speed along with two subs of it and one ink res then my shoes are stealth jump spiecal saver qsj and qr

[@Max-od1vx]

PLEASE MORE VIDEOS.

[@synthwavesun2450]

I kinda feel like trying Carbon again after this video, but even as someone who usually doesn't use it, I feel like some of the aspects here fit into my VStamper playstyle, that I can implement there aswell, so yeah very helpfull guide. The music was also good throughout this, I really feel like this deserves more attention. One thing I have to ask about is the stamper matchup. I feel like Carbon, specifically Carbon Deco is a nightmare for stamper. Idk if that's actually the case or just my aggressive playstyle on VStamper. I could change my mind if I play more NStamper tho

[@OmegaZidan]

Stamper is a weapon I like to fight in about midrange Close range is hard cause they may dash slash to trade far doesnt work since they outrange by a ton mid range is awkward for stamper, and alright for Carbon ^^ Ideally you just shark everything mwahahaha

[@CrushedLollipops]

FINALLYYYYY WTF OMEGA

[@OmegaZidan]

RAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

[@CrushedLollipops]

@@OmegaZidan jokes aside THIS VIDEO IS SO GOOD. 100% worth the wait

[@Meep_kun]

when it comes to matchups, one of the worst matchups for rollers in general are brellas even the undercover is able to tank many vertical flicks and counter attack do not engage them if they've seen you, and even sharking can go wrong if they manage to get lucky and have their shield up when you hit them

[@OmegaZidan]

I don't mind brellas that much (its also cause brellas aren't in the best spot rn) Butttttttt Undercover taking more than 1 vertical flick to break is annoying..

[@yoshidude8345]

With C.Wellstring in the game, with it’s kit revolving around location, it makes me wonder what do you do against weapons that have location and have knowledge on where you are?

[@colby_247]

Nice video.

[@bagthecadran]

4:49 You can super jump without having stealth jump and stealth jump doesn’t make super jumping faster or anything, it only makes your jump harder to see

[@kekekepi]

its insanely good against chargers and splatlings. its also better than getting tossed a well timed bomb

[@OmegaZidan]

I should have specified more too, dang it

[@QUL-bs6oi]

As a carbon roller lover, I always just mashed the attack button like amusing a splatana

[@daewon07]

Thank you. This was really good. Worth the wait. This was more in depth than most guides. Do you use any other rollers? My second favorite roller is flingza.

[@OmegaZidan]

I use splat roller too!! Flingza is prolly my 3rd favorite

[@Basil209]

CARBOB ROLLER CARBON ROLLER CARBON ROLLER CARBON ROLLER CARBON ROLLER

[@illusion1535]

amazing guide but one question. when you jump out to other people, how are you doing that? are u selecting them with the dpad. Also how do you know who to jump to?

[@aricheec7722]

im a carbon main now

[@iamacd3331]

Do you know why some JP carbon players use 1-2 subs of sub power up? I'm assuming it's to increase the range where you can finish kills with burst bombs, but I haven't seen anyone talk about it.

[@RyanSumthn]

i believe the main perk is increased throwing velocity; basically your burst bombs fly faster through the air, which makes landing directs for 60 damage more consistent in addition to speeding up kill time somewhat

[@OmegaZidan]

^^ Exactly this, the extra range helps a bit too

[@mengzelev9911]

(I've posted this yesterday but now I can't find it so I am posting it again.) Hey as a carbon enjoyer I really enjoyed your guide! I was wondering if you'd be down to let me add Chinese subtitles to the video as well as upload a translated version to Bilibili (a Chinese equivalent of KZbin) so more people can appreciate your content (and carbon hehe). All credits go to you! Thanks again, and please let me know what you think😊

[@OmegaZidan]

as long as you credit properly and link my YT, yes ^^ Thank you

[@Me_Myself_Maly]

What are your thoughts on a basic Swim Speed, NS, and SJ, but with subs of QR as a safety net? Especially since I play very aggressively. And if so, how much QR? I was debating like 4-5 subs. Maybe 6, but that heavily limits my utility.

[@OmegaZidan]

I'm not a big fan of it since you may not pop the QR with the kills I'd recommend trying comeback instead

[@Me_Myself_Maly]

@@OmegaZidan yeahhhh after doing some thinking (and research), I see what you mean. QR is kinda pointless on a build that (if played right) won’t be dying often. I’m just tryna make an all rounder Ninja build for slaying weapons like Carbon and Splat Dualies

[@roxymoron24]

picking up dcarbon rn! your stamper is really good too, ever gonna make a guide on that weapon?

[@OmegaZidan]

I'm glad!! Lowkey, a stamper guide is VERYYY unlikely considering -Carbon is my best weapon -I'm most knowledgeable on Carbon -I'm most comfortable on Carbon AND IT STILL TOOK FOREVER FOR ME TO MAKE THIS

[@uni3573]

Will you also be making a in depth guide for Dynamo roller?

[@OmegaZidan]

I don't play Dynamo very often. I'm not really an expert Maybe I'll make some Dynamo video for fun though. Not a guide though

[@sink1959]

I love the weapon but since i play solo i find it quite hard on retake because carbon isn't as self sufficient as short range shooter(who i mained before) so i am relying on my team to paint and get in If my team doesn't so that i feel like I can't do much but play for zooka Any tips for how to handle retake and lockout with carbon?

[@shiina4826]

this is a late comment but for map/modes would you say much has changed with the many map changes and also lemuria?

[@OmegaZidan]

Lemuria is probably a bad map for Carbon, but it might be okay in Clam Blitz

[@lucas_1448]

Anyone got tips on flicking over ledges? Is it a long jump? Should you aim down when flicking over ledges also? My kills are very inconsistent over ledges 😵‍💫

[@OmegaZidan]

Depends on the size of the ledge. You can try copying what I do in the every ledge spot compliation thing Other tips are stuff like it's a bit harder to do it in enemy ink I also show what ranges it tends to kill in that section it's chapter is "Simple Techniques: Ledge Flicking" Or smthn like that

[@davidhower7095]

Are there any guides for Vcarbon? I can't find a single one.

[@OmegaZidan]

Nahh there isn't, sorry 😔

[@meurqsus]

27:31 He's pooped, She's pooped, You're pooped?! I'm pooped. Is anyone else pooped that I should know about?!

[@NoaH22102]

I think bc of the sentence: using teammates as bait. Would a bp/zap/tetra/carbon work? The tetra would constantly dive in and the crabon can clean the kills

[@OmegaZidan]

Tetras and Carbon usually dont work together cause both don't paint vry efficiently Although the bait part is true, but Wiper > Tetras in that comp for a weapon that can bait Moonlight would run Bp, Zap, 96D/Shot, Carbon

[@Velocity_6410]

Nice vid, I just started to play carbon and it was helpful for my play. Also you scared me for a sec when you said your gf was dying, until you finished your sentence don't say it like that next time. For 5k would you consider doing a splat roller guid?

[@OmegaZidan]

...no (This took so much damn time for a weapon I love to bits, my brain would get fried if I tried it again. Maybe on a Splatana one day)
