I don't mean to brag but I'm pretty much a beast with the roller.

    I don't mean to burst your bubble, but the roller is pretty straightforward. You have a pretty neutral role in the match with it. Where people have reason to brag: being good with sniper or charger weapons. I fail miserably with them...

    Relax buddy, it's all jokes. That said I love the sniper too but can't seem to make it work in Turf Wars :/

    Yeah. I'm pretty sure Nintendo will tweak a lot of things in the next weeks and months, so I'm not too worried.

    Do you find the game balanced? Every time I see a team with 3 or 4 rollers I find they generally dominate. Of course that could just be because the game is still so new and people are still figuring out the most specialised weapons.

    The roller is definitely the most easy to get into and rewards new players very early and they have a powerful special weapon, too. The other weapons, especially the chargers and the not-so-fast-firing ones require a bit more practice, but with a gun you definitely have an edge over a roller player because of the distance.

    I find that playing against a roller-dominated team, it's better to not only focus on covering turf, but even more on killing the roller players. Someone who's mastered a charger weapon can really decimate them if they don't hide and just roll across the map the whole time.

    I've found being a roller is pretty powerful if you don't just run around the map blindly. I've had a lot of success hiding and planting Squid Beacon in corners close to the enemies spawn point. Really works well on the skate park level.

    Yeah, that's how I think the roller should be used. A lot of people who say the roller is overpowered think so because they're just overwhelmed by players who simply roll across the map.

    Late answer. No, I don't really find the game balanced. I think all the rapid-fire guns and rollers have a big advantage to all the other ones. When I see a team with two snipers, it almost always loses. And a team with four rollers is actually pretty weak. The can't really use higher ground to their advantage. Also, the game got a patch today, but no changelog. :-/
